We wish you a 'PC' Christmas

Readers of certain newspapers would be forgiven for thinking that Christmas has been outlawed by the massed ranks of the politically correct left. Are they right?

If recent tabloid reports are to be believed, Christmas has been cancelled and the fattened goose has been replaced by a halal chicken this year.

Carols have been censored, tinsel outlawed and even our human right to dance on a table drunkenly waving a bottle of vodka at the office party before kissing Dave from accounts is being curtailed.

Seasoned observers say that this year has seen a growing backlash against the plethora of rules and regulations imposed on the festive season.

John Midgley co-founded the Campaign Against Political Correctness two years ago and says that more than 9,000 people have since signed his petition against what he regards as a pervasive evil in modern life.
