Boycott Shrewsbury

Simples....

Obviously, it's wanting to become a folk festival for idiots...in my opinion, of course.

I've never heard anything so ridiculous in all my life.

What's next? Historical 'political correctness abuse' over miners who DARE to come out with their faces covered in coal dust?

After all, someone, somewhere, who is just loopy enough will find this racist/sexist/blackist/colourist, surely?


"Lizzie, you can't use the word 'loopy' any longer, nor DARE to suggest that there are folks who are thus, because they've brought in all the new rules which gives them orgasmic smilies over getting the majority to bend to their bizarre and troubled wishes"

Shame on Shrewsbury for being so utterly daft.

They *should* have said "Bugger off and research the history of Morris Dancing, then, come back to us and apologize for being so ignorant that you don't even know the history of what you are watching."
