UK: Christmas should be 'downgraded' to help 'race relations,' says Labour Party think tank

What race are Muslims again? And why must Western culture always give way to the cultural demands of Muslim immigrants?

Me, I think Labour's heart is three sizes too small.

"Christmas should be 'downgraded' to help race relations says Labour think tank," by James Chapman in the [1] Daily Mail (thanks to Brenda):

Christmas should be downgraded in favour of festivals from other religions to improve race relations, says an explosive report.

Labour's favourite think-tank says that because it would be hard to 'expunge' Christmas from the national calendar, 'even-handedness' means public organisations must start giving other religions equal footing.

The leaked findings of its investigation into identity, citizenship and community cohesion also propose:

• 'Birth ceremonies', at which state and parents agree to 'work in partnership' to bring up children

• Action to 'ensure access' for ethnic minorities to 'largely white' countryside

• An overhaul of Britain's 'imperial' honours system

• Bishops being thrown out of the House of Lords

• An end to 'sectarian' religious education

• Flying flags other than the Union Jack.
