[West Ender]

I don't care whether or not immigrants into this country are offended by "Christian" festivities, which most of them are not anyway. They came here by choice and if this country's celebrations and practices offend them they should leave by choice. If I migrated to a country of another predominant faith I would not expect that country's citizens to abandon their feast days in case they offended me.

The point is, more often than not, it's Government agencies and the like who come up with these ideas. They are fostering tension and resentment in their ridiculous attempts to seem anti-racist/religionist. This is Britain and we are, at least nominally, a Christian country. Those who share our land must be encouraged to accept our traditions as we are encouraged, and often happy, to accept theirs. If this Government doesn't recognise that, it's time to replace it with one that does.
