Several years ago I signed up for the daily 'Expat Bulletin' from the British newspaper, The Telegraph. (Don't ask me why, I can't remember.) Lately, I have been horrified by some of the stories I read in it. This must be a case of misery loves company. Rather than comment extensively on each story, which would take me days, I'm just going to give a link/blurb.
Witness warns police of threats against his life and property and is subsequently killed by illegal immigrant.
Children in the UK aren't being taught to behave either.
Vocabulary police are active in Britain, too.
NHS is near bankruptcy and the government still spends money on touchy-feely programs.
Woman who was not screened for criminal background prevented from taking her severely disabled son to school. (This one is particularly distressing.)
'Yuck' could be racial slur among preschoolers. (Another one that is particularly distressing.)
Britain's most senior jurist says Muslims should be able to adopt facets of sharia. In other news, camel's nose sighted under tent.
Christian couple fired for declining profits in pub where they had banned swearing, stage protest by barricading themselves inside. (Do as I say, damn - watch that mouth!)
25% of Britons to be vetted for crimes against children says new government bureaucracy. (Companion piece to mother barred from taking disabled son to school.)
It's hard to know who is to blame for this one, but it's probably lawyers.
Can someone please explain to me why the EU has a rule about the size of kiwi fruit?
Apparently the police in Britain don't have better things to do.
I wonder if they got the idea from the pamphlet distributed by the Mexican Foreign Ministry with tips on how to enter the U.S. illegally.
You get the idea. Britain is in thrall to the forces of PC as much, if not more, than we are.
