Re: Poor Little Snowflakes...

If the words were ok when the song was released, they should be OK now.

If the Snowflakes have to be protected from everything that may upset them, they wont have a hope of surviving possible disasters of climate change, and god help them if we head for another war, following China's recent behavior.
Bruce, from Australia, has posted details of an defence agreement between Japan and Australia regarding China wanting control of the South China sea!

I suppose eventually it will be illegal to play or sing a Christmas song for fear of upsetting other religions (muzzers). All part of the English demise.

That's insulting to the memory of Kirsty MacColl by not playing the original that is liked by so many.

Indeed, an understanding of what the song is about would help. MacColl's mother has called called the ban "too ridiculous".

Since when did a ***** ***** FAGGOT object to the FAGGOT word? It's a stunt. I feel like rushing out to buy the original.
