janne, I'm aware the Netherlands has stricter policies about this (or at least I read that online).
The good thing about the Labour party is that they have instilled programs for women in politics.
Immigrants should be allowed to speak their own language and do whatever they want in that respect as long as they can speak English when talking to other people about important things (like at the airport or when asking questions), and they should definitely follow the laws of the place they move to. It only makes sense.
The whole politically correct thing about Christmas is definitely annoying, but what's wrong with respecting a few other cultures now and then? Of course, it gets too far when people want to take down Christmas trees because they're "too Christian", especially since these festivities mean something other than the birth of Christ to most people now (let's be honest). These movements about keeping holiday cards completely "christian" with "merry christmas" or, the other extreme, keeping them "happy holidays" are both ridiculous and are getting more annoying.
