A TORY MP seeking to ban the burkha has been warned he faces legal action if he refuses to meet any constituent who is wearing one of the controversial full-face veils.

A ‘Pork and wine party’ organised on Facebook to protest against the ‘Islamisation’ of a neighbourhood has been banned by Paris officials.

The event, organised on the social networking site, was planned for Friday, when the streets would be teeming with Muslims coming out of mosques.

A council is considering banning the word “obesity” from its health campaigns for fear of offending overweight children.

Liverpool City Council believes the expression could stigmatise youngsters and wants to replace it with the phrase “unhealthy weight”.

Right-hand man, gentleman’s agreement and whiter than white are the latest phrases to fall foul of the political correctness lobby.

Government quangos have issued fresh lists of phrases they are seeking to ban to avoid causing offence.

A judge is facing an investigation after criticising the UK’s immigration system for being “completely lax”.

PORTLAND, Ore. – The City Council voted Wednesday to rename 39th Avenue as Cesar Chavez Boulevard after a two-year debate that brought charges of racism and government heavy-handedness, and groans from residents who wanted the late Hispanic labor leader honored elsewhere.

I’m not sure which piece of unpopular Irish news is being buried by which: the announcement of a second referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, or the shuffling through of a law creating penalties for blasphemy, an offence that has never properly existed in the Irish state.

While there is certainly a store of resentment in the population at being asked to vote again (that is: vote properly, you morons, as the government is barely holding back from saying) on the Lisbon Treaty, there is a certain sense of bafflement at the new blasphemy legislation, smuggled in under the guise of defamation law reform today. Nobody wanted this law: no one can think of a single thundering priest, austere vicar, irate rabbi or miffed mullah ever calling for tougher penalties for blasphemy.

It is a traditional form of Morris dancing that dates back to the 17th century.

In a bid to prove that being blonde has nothing to do with Vikings, a museum featuring an exhibition on the Norse warriors has banned fair-headed people from visiting it.

As per York Dungeon bosses, the Norsemen were largely Redheads, and fair-haired people descended from Saxons-the invaders’ enemies.

The bosses are so caught up with the whole thing that they have waived this weekend’s entrance fee for reds, while brunettes are allowed to visit though they will have to pay the fee.

Comment: This is a disgraceful act of discrimination against a large but diminishing section of our folk. Can you imagine the uproar if blacks or muslims or any other minority group were banned from attending such an exhibition? There were not many Chinese amongst the Norse, will they ban them too? Of course not.

A Muslim police officer claims he was forced out of his job by colleagues who made fun of his beard and called him a ‘f***ing Paki’.

PC Javid Iqbal, 38, said white officers openly discussed in front of him how they were ‘ better’ than their ethnic-minority colleagues.

The married father of two also claims officers pulled faces at each other if told they had to go out on patrol with him and forced him to walk home from a job instead of picking him up.
