Has Christmas Been Banned Yet ?
Appears to be a lack of such stories this year.

Yes, although not before PRISONERS had a slap up Christmas dinner, better than any PENSIONER could afford.

I'm actually missing this year's 'Winterval' and equally false stories about Muslims wanting Christmas banned ...hell, there's not even a Nativity play story about not featuring the baby Jesus , along with the 'in case it offends' narrative.
However, I'm sure there are Daily Mail 'journalists' scurrying around like little rats in local councils, schools, workplaces, checking Twitter, Facebook etc for even a whiff of a story,...so there's still time. |

A bloke called Dave down the pub swears he knows of a school near his sister's house that's banned the Nativity play this year cos it offended Muslims. Or Jews.

I live in hope that one year it really will be banned and that we can pass blisfully through December to January without any of this Christmas nonsense.

Not yet but if I can't get this jumper I'm knitting finished in time it may have to be postponed a couple of weeks.

You'll be able to spot the post immediately by the link to a Daily Mail article on the top line. |

Can confirm that Christmas has not been cancelled at my workplace here in Lostville. They are even laying on a lunchtime thank you buffet (which is separate from group Christmas lunches, which work is also paying for on a team-by-team basis) with a choir of volunteers singing carols.
Very festive. |

Ask the daily Mail.
They usually find out, or if that fails they invent. |

Earlier this year Easter Eggs were banned, according to The Daily Star anyway.

The only people who go on about "Christmas being banned" are people who want to be outraged at "Christmas being banned" (with the associated racist undertones).

Nah, all the fictional "look-at-what-the-EU-are-doing", "it's-PC-gone-mad" stories have been diverted to Brexit articles, instead.

It's elf and santa gorn mad
SCROOGES at a local council and housing association have slapped a “mad” festive ban on Christmas wreaths and decorations. A mum in south London came home to find stickers demanding the removal of decorations while East Devon Council has banned wreaths and other festive ornaments from the communal areas of its properties arguing they could be a fire risk. |
