Went into a shop in Goathland today, which was selling a very offensive doll, one that used to be a certain jam's label. They asked people not to take photos and said they that didn't want to offend anyone. Well, I think most people who saw that were offended.

@BecLFC gollywog on jam ?
@LukeLukeLuke You said it. I can't even say that word.
@BecLFC I did say it, ??
@LukeLukeLuke I know you said it.
@BecLFC we don't want to offend anyone with our racist caricature dolls. That we sell for a profit.
@30yrdscreamer I wish I had the nerve to ask the question why.
@BecLFC I saw some in a shop in Battle many years ago. I also didn't mention it - much to my own annoyance.
@30yrdscreamer Yeah, this was a proper display with loads of items! I just can't comprehend it.
@BecLFC @30yrdscreamer If they don't want people to take photos, that shows they know.

@mike @BecLFC

Wasn't there a pub that had a collection on display in the news a year or so ago?

Edit:
It shut down after hitting the news

Essex pub that had golliwog dolls seized by police shuts its doors

Bernice Ryley, whose dolls are widely considered to be racist caricatures, says "we've had a few bits of hate, which I personally don't understand".

@30yrdscreamer @mike This was a shop in the village where they filmed 'Heartbeat'. People visit there from loads of different countries!
