The Department for Media, Culture and Sport has decided the Red Arrows
should not be allowed to perform at the Olympics opening ceremony as
they're considered to be too militaristic and that this could offend
some countries.
Putting aside asking which nice peace loving countries such as Russia,
Zimbabwe, Syria or even those bastions of moral superiority France
might be offended, where on Earth does New Labour find all this PC wet
baggage otherwise known as f**king w**kers.
The fact that the Department for Media, Culture and Sport would appear
to be full of them and every last one of them seems completely unable
to resign, as a matter of principal, from their well paid jobs
representing a Government that's been ever so slightly militaristic in
Iraq and Afghanistan just about sums every PC twat that's ever been
born.
I've always been of the opinion that when dealing with the politically
correct I'm dealing with the World's biggest hypocrites and time and
time again they never fail to let me down.

I just googled it and a few news sources are covering it. Maybe next
they won't allow our own flag at the games, after all we don't want to
offend anyone do we ;-)

That lot would ban countries if they had their way.

So how many Olympic opening ceremonies since say, the 1960's, have been
blessed with displays by the host country's air force's aerobatic display
team? You can list them by either host country or year, I don't mind.
