At least in this case study from Absurd Britannia, the backtracking began almost immediately. "Mother told to take down her Christmas lights... in case they offend her non-Christian neighbours," from the Daily Mail, December 16 (thanks to James):
A woman has spoken of how she was told to remove her Christmas lights by a housing association worker - in case they offended her non-Christian neighbours. Dorothy Glenn decorates her home in South Shields with hundreds of festive lights every year, including a giant tree and a 4ft Santa Claus.
But she was left stunned this year when a South Tyneside Homes worker called at her house to inform her that the decorations she was displaying might be offending her neighbours.
The association last night apologised to Mrs Glenn and insisted that removing Christmas lights was not part of their policy.

PC totally out of control.
could liberal, democrat, adolescent psychosis be spreading to the united kingdom?
The mother of 2 said.... “FU”. OOps this is all about Christmas so there should be no vulgarity. But we can have contempt for Caesar and his minions.
People have to defiantly stand up to this crap or they will run over us.
At least commonsense prevailed in the end.
I think the Poms will put up with only so much of this crap from the muslims before they get really, really angry and sort them out properly.
What the muslims interpret as capitulation and weakness is actually good manners and patience: both of which being virtues with the Poms. But there are limits to both, as the muslims might just find out.
I figured the lights were non-religious anyway.
Actually, it seems to START over there.
Humbug I say.......Humbug!!!

Hail Britania
Yes, England has been setting the standard for PC idiocy years ahead of Americans, and they are miles ahead of us when it comes to pandering to muzzies.
If I had to I would take them down now and then put them up in the Spring or Summer time.
Some subhuman mohammedan must’ve slithered by and complained about the “infidel lights”
“could liberal, democrat, adolescent psychosis be spreading to the united kingdom?”

Christmas and Hannukah decorations don’t offend me. Chopping heads off living humans and making videos about it does offend me.

Already been posted and not much of a story anyway. This was one idiot person. The association said this was not its policy and the neighbors said they loved the lights. Lights are still up. End of “story.”
According to the full story, her non-Christian neighbors said they loved the lights.
You are just so insensitive. :)~
And all the dhimmi leftists over here are green with envy. Undoubtedly they'd like nothing more than to be able to throw people in jail for voicing "unpopular" opinions or exhibiting "non-inclusive" behavior.
