That's (Not) The Way To Do It!

No I am not making this up. A Punch and Judy pupiteer in Broadstairs Kent has been told that he cannot include in his act a Saddam Hussein Puppet because there have been complaints.There is a long tradition of Punch and Judy shows including figures from the world of politics which goes back centuries.Adolf Hitler used to feature heavily in the 1940's and would receive a good whacking for his troubles.All knockabout stuff,very British.

But apparently now there is no area of social life where the tentacles of political correctness do not stretch and the local council have banned the puppet master from including Sadam in his show.Poor old Soddom the mass murderer has his human rights after all and such character assasination is obviously a violation of them ye Gods.
