The government in their 'wisdom' now feels that christmas may be offensive to ethenic minorities so it is to be downgraded
What are your thoughts about this, and what has been happening to the culture of this country since they came to power.

Perhaps I should have said the U.K and not just England

lt's ridiculous, can you imagine us going in our thousands to live in Asia and they downgrade their religious activities not to insult us?? It's our country and it's our traditions, leave them alone, it's about all we have left.

Yes, they are if they want to enact something like that - you don't see GERMANY downgrading Christmas. Unfortunately England appears to have a large immigrant population these days - but whatever happend to "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"?
It seems backwards when the immigrants, instead of adjusting to English customs, try to replace them with their own, interfering with traditional English ways. America has that to some degree, being a nation of immigrants, but is too consumer-oriented to ever give up Christmas.

Trouble is we have have a weak government, with a coward for Prime Minister.
Instead of standing up for the country's heritage and traditions, they bend over backwards to appease ethnic minorities simply to secure their votes!
What they fail to see is that soon, the minorities will be the majority, and do you think they will go out of their way to support the indigenous British? Of course not!
It's an invasion by stealth, and sadly we are all stupidly supporting it!

All this all started at the same time as Blair changed into precise Minister and Brown changed into Chancellor of the Exchequer and many what they did between them does seem to were geared in the route of destroying what changed into once Britain. they say a democracy receives the authorities it advantages, in spite of the indisputable fact that, so that you would possibly want to assert that many of the blame really lies with those who voted them into capacity 3 cases.

Labour has already destroyed this country. In years to come our childrens children won`t even know their heritage.
