Here's how awful the political correctness and dhimmitude has gotten in our mother-country...

For 130 years they have been part of Christmas, filling the air in towns across the land with music and carols.

Of course "other religions" means "perpetually outraged Muslims".

Our once-great motherland has slouched her way, through cowardice, ignobility, and self-loathing, into a husk of her former self. She is now, nothing but a staging ground for the inevitable Islamification of old Europe. And the Britons willingly subjugate their rich culture in order to please their hostile Muslim overlords.

On the bright side, the did put up with Madonna for us for the last few years.
