Should a mayor who called a call centre worker 'a bloody P**i' be sacked?

Should a mayor who called a call centre worker 'a bloody P**i' be sacked? Plus glamour model twins Preeti and Priya talk to Nihal about their choice of career.

Should a Mayor who called a call centre worker "a bloody P**i" be sacked? 

Bob Clark is Mayor of Padiham near Burnley in Lancashire. Earlier this year he was on the phone to the call centre for an organisation called Calico Housing where he spoke to a gentleman called Hazif Rehman. Clearly unhappy with the response he was getting he then referred to Mr Rehman as a ' bloody P**i' 

Mr Clark has since written a letter of apology to Mr Rehman and will also undertake ethnicity awareness training, but do you think this is the right form of punishment? Should he be sacked for his comments? Maybe you think sacking him is too harsh? Get your calls in!


After 2 glamour model twins Preeti and Priya will be talking to Nihal about their choice of career. How do you feel about Asian girls flaunting all? Would you have any respect for them? Maybe you support what they do? 

Later in show Nihal will be talking about brands. Are Asians obsessed with brands? Are designer brands a must? Or would you be happy shopping at a charity shop?
