   Briefly had to listen to local radio because I was in my car with broken DAB.

   Message after message on the local radio phone in regarding Boris Johnson and his Islamophobic comments.

   "Snowflakes need to shut up... just a bit of a laugh... too sensitive... etc etc etc".

   I AM SICK OF THIS. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I take the piss out of local radio a lot, but this is more serious. BBC RADIO LEEDS, SORT YOUR FUCKING BIGOTED LISTENERS OUT.

      Bob in Bingley says snowflakes are too easily offended these days. David in Keighley says women in burqas look like letterboxes.

      Now here's fucking Adele, traffic news is next.

      I'm driving over the tops tomorrow. I should go over Holme Moss and cut the coax for 92.4 FM.

      You know who hasn't been on this radio station? Muslims.

      They are all listening to Sunrise FM and the like, because the local BBC is so right-wing. We all pay licence fees, the station should be for everyone.

      Same story, two different stations:

      BBC Radio Manchester interviewed: A Labour MP who is also a Muslim
      BBC Radio Leeds interviewed: Racist Ron from Roundhay and pals
