It seems Wick Gala has made front page of the telegraph for a racism debacle which shows three people dressed as Gollies during the parade.

This has caused national embarrassment to the town and created a complaint which is now being dealt with by the Police.

As we are all aware modern sensitivies around racial issue are higher than ever and the law is quite clearly written, I'm surprised these people where allowed to take part as anywhere else in the UK they would of been refused or arrested.

If they appeared in a major town or city they'd be lucky to escape uninjured given the sensitivities around the Golly and is racial overtones.
