Take Derby for example. Their symbol is a pig, and the local government decided to take down their statue of a pig because it might offend Muslims. I think that this is a disgrace personally, we don't go marching into other countries demanding them to take down their statues because they offend us. They would refuse and probably arrest us for being disrespectful of their customs. So why is it that our government is so soft? They are so busy trying to keep other nationalities happy in our country that they've forgotten the native people.

The other thing that really annoys me is the way that some religions complain that the school uniforms of most schools don't respect their religious customs and allow their children to wear their traditional clothing for school. I respect the fact that other religions have traditional clothing but I have to say I was extremely annoyed when I saw this on the television. A young girl actually took her school to court for not allowing her to wear her traditional clothing for school. It was her and her parents choice to go to that school and it was also their choice to live in England. It annoys me that they think they have some God given right to be above the rules of a school. Most schools have uniforms, that's the way it is and all of us manage to abide by that. In making the decision to send their child to that school they knew that there was a uniform rule, so basically that girl's parents sent her to that school knowing fine well that she wouldn't be allowed to wear her traditional clothing but they sent her anyway and instead tried to get their own way about the matter. It gets me really annoyed that they thought they could do that and that they had to be given what they wanted, and then when things didn't go their way they took the school to court.

This happens in all aspects of life in England. On school exam papers a certain proportion of names used in examples must be from other cultures or it is considered racist. I had my chemistry end of year exam the other day and the only names they had on that paper were Muslim names, but you don't see us complaining about that, even though technically that is racism towards British people. There would have been complete uproar if the paper had contained only British names. If you ask me the government really needs to start and pay more attention to it's native people or they are going to find themselves turned against.


So now that you have read my article please think for a second before you comment. Think about all the things I've said. Am I really being racist, or am I just simply telling it how it is?
