Oh okay then.

According to the dictionary, there are three ways to sign the word “Jew”. The term can be represented by stroking over the chin – an action used in British sign language – or by displaying pipe curls with the fingers or gesturing with the finger over the nose.

...

Last month, the sign language dictionary in New Zealand came under criticism for a series of portrayals of minority communities.

Along with the hook-nose gesture for the word Jew, one of the words for representing Chinese people involves tugging at the corner of the eye. Gay is represented by a hand-flop and Samoan by pressing down on your nose.

People in wheelchairs designing living and working spaces for people with mobility issues?

Autistic people actually trying to help other autistic people?

OMG, just thing – wouldn’t ti be awful if people who are now in remission actually helped manage the pain and other symptoms that come with having and treating cancer?

I mean seriously, what on Earth do any of those people really have to add to the discussion? What could they possibly know that an able-bodied neurotypical wouldn’t already know? I mean, experience doesn’t teach all that much!

1 Bob is 1 shilling which is 1/20 of a pound sterling, which is 5 pence in the newer decimal system.

So 15 Bob a week is 75p

75*52.143 = 3910.725 pence = £39.10

Adjusted for inflation that's £4,722.31 which is $6,069.49 at the market rate right now.
