Some more signs the PC brigade has gone stupid.

In an old true life black and white film (I think dambusters) the hero of the story had a black labrador called 'N|gger'. This has now been dubbed over so he says 'Blackie' No doubt that will be dubbed. Which as it is a true life film, I think it should be left.

Also Radio 1 have bleeped the word 'Faggot' in the xmas song 'Fairytale of NewYork'. Chris Moyles said that if his bosses find that offensive then they should also bleep the word 'Fairy' in every Xmas song.

EDIT: Had to manipulate a word to get round the swear filter. I will edit it if people find it offencive.

blackmans pinch===oh s*** that hurt

white christmas====cold christmas


black sheep===coloured challenged.

For all things non-PC have a look at this site

http://www.capc.co.uk/

Their Politically Correct Scrapbooks are a very good read.

I like this website and blog ...  smiling

It's a myth that we in this country have 'freedom of speech'.  It has not been now, in the past nor ever likely to be enshrined in the laws of this land that any individual shall have 'freedom of speech'.  A policeman on duty can order a person to 'shut up' if s/he deems it to be in the interests of maintaining order (paraphrasing madly here - any police members who can elaborate?  Please do.)

It is likewise a myth that we are citizens here  in UK,  despite giving potential settlers here in the UK 'citizenship' tests and all.  None of us are citizens, we do not exist.  We are all, like it or not, (and I do NOT) subjects of and to her Majesty the QE2. (aka Ma'am, highness, royal highness and a few other choicest terms of honour and grovellingness).
