I'd be surprised if he was.Me neither. I also think he is a bell end, but I do believe he was unaware of the yellow peril connotations.
Hes 52.Rice-Pudd is not noted for his youngsterism.
Are you yanking may chain?Hes 52.
Yup, he's younger than me. I dropped my pipe when I found out.Hes 52.
OK, not a youngster, but not as old as the image he projects.
who just happens to be one the lefties favourite punching bags, has been reprimanded for using a "racist term". He described the Lib dems as the "yellow peril". Is a term racist even if not attacking a race ? What next, being banged up for calling Man Utd the "red" devils ?
The likes of Hate and his ilk can't help being impressed by his posh accent and his upper class demeanour.Rees Mogg is what a thick person thinks a smart person looks like.

Don't judge by your own ignorance. The term has a lot of history you dimwit.

As to Rees Mogg use- he apologised immediately unreservedly so the matter should be considered closed.
However this means Rees Mogg if he doesn't know the terms racist use perhaps is not as erudite and learned as he makes himself out to be.

Good old Wikipedia
Context has to come into it , dum dum. An Irish ex rugby player got the boot for describing an England player as having an Oompa Loompa tan. Fair enough, as the player is of mixed race. But what if someone used the same term to describe a white person who has over done the Ambre solaire, such as Dale Winton or Judith Chalmers , is that racist ? Or me describing a dark coloured Audi car as a piece of black sh!t , racist ?The term has a lot of history you dimwit.

Wikipedia co-founder says site is now 'propaganda' for left-leaning 'establishment' (nypost.com)
FFS man 'yellow peril' was used as a term for the japs during the second world unpleasantness, probably again in the Korean unpleasantness. Much the same as we described Germans as 'gerries', 'The Hun' 'Kraut', 'square heads' 'box heads' (note the last two were references to the shape of their helmets (headgear I hasten to add)).
These are simply nicknames for who were at the time 'enemies'. I for one don't hold a grudge against the Gerries, even though the bastards bombed me mums house in Battersea.
OK, let's not be racist.
Let's just refer to the Chinese as the ******g enemy.

Nothing racist about that, but probably even more unpleasant.
