Toddlers who dislike spicy food 'racist'
Telegraph UK ^ | 7/7/2008 | Rosa Prince

Toddlers who turn their noses up at spicy food from overseas could be branded racists by a Government-sponsored agency.

The National Children's Bureau, which receives £12 million a year, mainly from Government funded organisations, has issued guidance to play leaders and nursery teachers advising them to be alert for racist incidents among youngsters in their care.

This could include a child of as young as three who says "yuk" in response to being served unfamiliar foreign food.

The guidance by the NCB is designed to draw attention to potentially-racist attitudes in youngsters from a young age.

It alerts playgroup leaders that even babies can not be ignored in the drive to root out prejudice as they can "recognise different people in their lives".

The 366-page guide for staff in charge of pre-school children, called Young Children and Racial Justice, warns: "Racist incidents among children in early years settings tend to be around name-calling, casual thoughtless comments and peer group relationships."

It advises nursery teachers to be on the alert for childish abuse such as: "blackie", "Pakis", "those people" or "they smell".

Your kiddie don't like falafel? You're a racist.

I wonder how many non-white toddlers will be monitored and admonished for "racist" actions?

George Herbert Walker Bush was broccoli-phobic. He could have been impeached for that.

The police have to put booties on their dog's feet, because Muslims don't like dogs -- and, hey, that's their right.
Your toddler doesn't like spicy curry? Well, you can probably avoid jail time if it's a first offense. But watch it!

The UK is lost, gone to hell. Too bad, it was once one of history greatest nations. Sad, to see.

The charge of “racism” is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

“Racism” is a plot of the vast hard left wing conspiracy.

Along with the nanny culture and self righteous nanny fascists.

Along with the “greens” and enviro wacko “environmentalists” with emphasis on “mental”.

Puppies are best as a mild curry.
