Take a close look today and see what the political nonsence of multi- culturerism , political correctness , denegration of western world values , removal of all Englishness from public life , Banks refusing to display Xmas decorations as not to offend !!!
Coupled with all these nonsense we have Ken as a mayor of London.
I tell you Mihalis the country is not what it used to.My wife who was born in London , of English parents being English herself agrees with me 100%.
Regards , and please email me the next time you are in the UK.

Andri, this is no word of a lie, but some schools in the UK have banned the nursery rhyme of Baa baa black sheep because it may cause offence to black people, instead they can sing baa baa rainbow sheep. Blackboard is now known as a chalkboard, whiteboard has changed to something else, can't remember what they want to call it.

are you serious? If black people are going to get offended by a nursery rhyme that's centuries old they need their heads checked. There is no place where people cry racism as much as the US and kids can still say black sheep. What the heck the sheep was black whats wrong with that LOL

Yeah, it was utterly ridiculous. They wanted to change it to 'Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep'. HaHaHaHa. Wait a minute... that just might insult rainbows. I protest!!!

That's not all. Apparently Humpty Dumpty did not have a happy enough ending for some people so a store in England started to sell tapes a CDs with a new ending that said "Humpty Dumpty opened his eyes, falling down was such a surprise, Humpty Dumpty counted to 10, then Humpty Dumpty got up again."

Unbelievable

Thats the thing, as far as I'm aware, black people have NEVER been offended by this nursery. The people that needs their heads examined are the ones that are forcing these issues, who in my opinion, are the ones causing trouble.
