There is a difference between being over 'pc' and just not finding out and out racist jokes funny. I would never listen to Roy Chubby Brown but you have to keep in mind that there was a time when Manning was all over British tv and therefore people had a hard time escaping him and his 'jokes'...oh and they were paying for him to say them. So, of course more people have knowledge of Manning than they do the other racist Roy Chubby Brown.

You are allowed to basically be a polite, non-racist person and not be 'overly pc' and if you don't see that those jokes are racist I worry for society.
