I'm glad I'm retired ..... there's too much politics on wokism, trans, etc.
But .... I had a shock recently ... one of my NHS colleagues daughter decided she wanted to live as a boy. My colleague after overcoming this bombshell decided to embrace it. She has said her "son" is much happier.

I come from a time of Andy Pandy, Noddy, Big Ears, Mr plod etc. Not to mention Bill and Ben with weed and the rest of them on black and white BBC TV.

Oh and talking of Black and White - what ever happened to the Black and White minstrel show also on non-coloured BBC TV.
I have never thought the Black and White Ministrel show was unpoliticaly correct. It's about people who are white and want to emulate what black people have.
Am I going to get booted off this forum?

I always thought it was emulating (celebrating) black talent.

Probably not, as those who would object are not actually moderators.

Somehow I doubt you will get booted off. Somehow I am still here...you should be alright.

My view is that it was making fun of a stereotype. I can imagine the comments if it was reshown today.

Maybe its time to go back to fire precautions.

I have 4 exits, only the door with direct street access is locked and the key stays in position, so a short crawl will get me out of the house.
But now I have read this thread I am seriously considering what other precautions I should consider.
Especially considering how slow to respond the local fire fighters are. Thankfully there do not seem to be many instances of house fires near me, but the few that there have been have resulted in total destruction of the property.
So it would seem wise to take a few simple precautions.

I haven't done anything yet ... I was in Praktiker today and prior to my visit made a list what to buy but omitted the fire safety stuff!
One thing bugging me is we leave all the internal doors open all day and night. Only occasion we shut our bedroom door is when the dogs come into the house with muddy paws!
There's no door for the kitchen and it's now becoming an urgent issue to fix!
