From the Rise & Fall of Reginald Perrin. Written by David Nobbs
The full list was:
‘wreckers of law and order. Communists, Maoists, Trotskyists, neo-Trotskyists, crypto-Trotskyists, union leaders, Communist union leaders, atheists, agnostics, long-haired weirdos, short-haired weirdos, vandals, hooligans, football supporters, namby-pamby probation officers, rapists, papists, papist rapists, foreign surgeons – headshrinkers, who ought to be locked up, Wedgwood Benn, keg bitter, punk rock, glue-sniffers’
The late Leonard Rossiter played Reggie Perrin and in the clip listens with understated sarcasm to the kind of list of the Woke which one might hear in 2026 from US War Secretary Pete Hegseth
Hegseth: “It’s worth saying again so the fake news understands it. We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that — no fatties no trannies no beardos no weirdos no wimps no radicals. Just warriors.”
He was right about keg bitter btw & Hegseth definitely likes a drink
