But that is the minimum requirement for being a "Gammon". So you can't call me that.
Where have you pulled that from ?

Is that another fact you’ve made up ? Let’s have a little proof this time please

The term "gammon" is a pejorative British political slur that has no official requirements but is applied to middle-aged or older white men who are perceived as having angry, right-leaning, and anti-immigrant views
. It is often used to ridicule and dismiss someone in political arguments and can be considered a derogatory stereotype.
 
people do tend to get angry when they are the subject of racial hatred.

That doesn't make any sense. The reason "Gammons" are so called is because they get angry and go red when thinking about right wing hobby horses. Anger is the essence of Gammonhood.
 
What about people who have red faces normally (not sunburnt)

nonsense. You've been given plenty of generally accepted definitions. No need to make up your own.

You are not normally this hard of thinking. In times gone by I've been able to walk you through basic legal concepts, I'm surprised you can't get your head around section 17 and 18 of the public order act.

So Colin’s wins, not Google now.

But, the prerequisite for being a gammon is a red face, so a suntan and you’re a gammon, as noseal had pointed out

In your opinion a Gammon could be just embarrassed? Or shy, or hot ?

I have always said that it is complicated.

But when I say that I get lambasted and called a troll. I have no interest in "winning" an argument.

If other races referred to white people generically as "Gammons", there would be no doubt that was racist.

But it is the political aspect that complicates it. And the fact that for everyone I know who refers to people as "Gammons", anger is the essential component.
