Chris Moyles Insults The Polish

Popular DJ Chris Moyles got the BBC in trouble after he seemed to imply that a certain nationality would make good prostitutes.
His exact words were: 'If you're Polish you're just very good at ironing...in my experience prostitutes make very good cleaners.'
This new trouble comes days after the BBC apologized for letting Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross leave offensive messages on Andrew Sachs' phone, which were then broadcast on Brand's Saturday night Radio 2 show, sparking over 500 complaints.
Poles living in England have started a petition insisting on an apology for the 'racist' comments.
However, the BBC stood by Moyles, saying that his words were 'misinterpreted.'
