The woke police would have anyone who released that song today.

 

To be honest the woke please sound awesome they might actually manage to carry out any interactions with everybody without shooting/tasering or unnecessarily restraining them. They might even file accurate reports about whats actually gone on to pass on to the other relevant authorities, they might stop and search people based on whether they appear to carrying drugs rather can because they can or because of what they look like. They might actually bother with certain crimes at the point where intervention is required rather than when it's no longer required.

 

When do the woke police start recruiting and when can we deploy them?

The woke police point the finger rather than the gun, but they use their weapons viciously, with or without probable cause. They charge people and find them guilty “because they can and because of what they (the accused) look like”. And they think intervention is always required - so they’re always willing to spend time, say, prosecuting dead people for using the word “poofter” forty years ago.

He had a fling with Stevie Nicks while producing her 'The Other Side Of The Mirror' album, the lucky sod. They broke up due to him taking coke around her, which she hadn't long been  off.

I seem to recall that language coming up as a Pop Quiz question back in the day and the answer is that it's Swahili

Bonnie Pointer not a miss for my TOTP team for 1984. She had long left the group by then.

 

Probably part of the least successful incarnation of The Pointer Sisters. Cruel, but true.

I recall Joey Russ once got thrown out a Pointer Sisters concert because he was too racist.

Bonnie Pointer is a List of the Missed though, having been picked by Gooseberry Crumble in 2018: http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2018/celebs_P.html#pointb

Yes I'm kicking myself for  not including her in any of my Derby dead pools this year although I did include her in death by numbers pool.
