COMEBACK FOR "NON-OFFENSIVE PIGS"

Organisers of a children’s concert have given the go-ahead for the three little pigs to appear, after they were banned over fears they might offend Muslims.

Honley Junior School in West Yorkshire was to perform the Roald Dahl story of Little Red Riding Hood and the Pigs – but was told to substitute puppies.

Now Kirkless Council has stepped in to allow the pigs reprieve.

On the other hand a West Yorkshire head teacher has banned books containing stories about pigs from the classroom in case they offend Muslim children.
The literature has been removed from classes for under-sevens at Park Road Junior Infant and Nursery School in Batley.

I'm offended that they've taken the books off the shelf in the first place. So am I being discriminated against? I think I am.

For PC read Liberal facist thought police.

It looks like common sense did make a come back re this story as the pigs have been given the go-ahead to 'perform'...

It's always the same...It's generally not the muslims who are complaining about stuff...it's sally sensitive at local government level who creates work for her/him self by thinking up these ideas...And it's this silliness that we need to talk to our local MP's about to make them aware that votes could be lost or won depending on their stance on this subject...
