I didn't see the tweet,
this is the first I've heard,
but just to be racist
I'll take your word.

Perhaps then, just maybe, compare it to a puppy? Or are chimpanzees often paraded around in a similar fashion where you're from?
I've called a mischievous dog a cheeky monkey
How can this best be resolved? Harry in a Nazi uniform slapping him round the face with a wet kipper?

Unfortunately there are too many offendz every day. To lose your income over it when no-one cares next week is very sad.
Life lesson. Don't use twitter thinking the 500k following you are your friends.

Meh, it’s the double edge sword of being a celebrity. I’m sure he’ll manage.

My kids are called Monkey1 and Monkey 2, it’s a silly thing to do but I certainly don’t instantly think black when I see a monkey.
Dave!

Are either of your kids black or mixed race? If not, you’re probably fine.

Here's an idea - racism etc to one side. Perhaps not take a shot at the new royal baby AT ALL? Y'know - to be less of a cunt, and so on. What can there possibly be to gain? It's not like the parents are cunts who need dressing down.

I think the real problem here is that we need scientists to breed white monkeys, that way the word monkey will no longer have racist connotations.

Gammonkey's look is all you need in response to that idea.

Maybe as Farage and Boris and the like have got away with some pretty close to the knuckle stuff he thought it was OK. He claims not to have know whose baby it was and to be fair I did not know they were expecting but he has been fired from the Beeb before so no doubt he will be back.

Yes, I saw the clip of him saying that, it was cringeworthy.

This makes no sense, who’s baby did he think that Prince Harry and Megan were holding on all the front pages around 9 months after she got pregnant? Could he not decipher the odd squiggles on the pages around the photos?

And he presents/presented a radio program which I imagine had regular news bulletins.

I did say "claims" as it seems unlikely someone in the media was as oblivious as I was but I had no idea they were expecting so first I knew was the article saying a ginger had full sex with a woman and another in a similar vein about jobless couple have baby that will cost taxpayers money.

Regardless of what you/we know about the Royal family, DB did know - he posted a tweet titled “Royal baby leaves hospital”. You may have seen it?
