I didn't want to hi-jack Becky's thread, so responding here:
BTW Becky... Didn't you know that 'White Christmas' is now deemed to be a racist song?It was an allusion made by an idiot (is there any other type?) Labour politician during the Oldham West and Royton by-election campaign. He inferred that the playing of 'White Christmas' by UKIP as part of a medley of Xmas songs was racially offensive in an area with a high number of non-white constituents (and, presumably, must be deemed racist played anywhere).Mel - why? 'cos there ain't any black snow, is there?

It's the same idiocy that now dictates that 'blackboards' should be called 'chalkboards' and why the term 'nitty gritty' is deemed racially offensive.
