This was in a thread a while back. Someone writes some new words to a well-known tune to make a fun music-and-movement activity for toddlers. Non story. You're not going to sell newspapers with stuff like that. You've got to have a taxpayers-money-wasting liberal elite "trying to rewrite the history and tradition of this country". Can't say they've put a new version of a song in a songsheet. No, the old one was "axed" (much better, sounds more like they've gone and burned the non-PC songsheets) Cue quote from angry parent, along with obligatory speculation as to how much money this must have cost (that could no doubt have been used to give Caroline Graham's hard-working husband a tax cut). Jeez, I'm surprised they didn't get a bit about removing references to alcohol "in case it offends Muslims" - someone missed a trick there. It must be really hard to go through life getting offended by stuff like this. Don't these peoples knees get worn out by that constant jerking? One thing I would like to know- what is the so-called "Campaign For Real Education"'s problem with a national programme to encourage early literacy?
