Ah I see. Well Wyre Borough Council were clearlt over the top with their need to report a letter to the police. The police received a complaint, investigated and decided that no further action was required. Doesn't really support your assertion that "One cannot even criticize Muslims or homosexual behavior in the UK without facing prison" but still.
"And, if I have to educate you on how insanely PC the UK has become in recent years, then you're virtually beyond hope."
Generally we seem less afflicted by this than the US (no-one over here felt the need to wish me 'Happy Holidays' at any rate), of course it can be a problem at times though.
