Do you remember how everyone was up in arms about the 'pussification' (shudder - what a <i>horrible</i> phrase) of the country? Well here it is in action again. Now teachers across the country will have to think twice before they open their mouths in case some spotty teenager is recording them and is going to release their lessons on the national media. Where is the moral uproar? Where is the anti-PC brigade now? Not only are people no longer to talk about race, gender or disability - now they're not allowed to discuss politics either (even from within the context of a geography class!). Where exactly will this end? What exactly will we be able to talk about in the future? Which topics of conversation will be consigned to hushed and embarrassed exchanges between consenting adults?
It's completely disgusting.
The people responsible should be ashamed of themselves. I am ashamed of them.
