Sometimes you look at the world and wonder why? Yet again local busy bodys with nothing better to do with their time than decide what is good for us have stuck their noses into what does not concern them. Lets face it who can get all offended by a pig? Whats the odds who ever came up with that ban reads The Guardian.
Seems that someone has been sticking their snout where it dont belong.
oh and also report on this here: the swine ban our pigs.
THE Three Little Pigs WILL star in a Huddersfield show.
Organisers of a children's concert have given the go-ahead for the three little pigs to appear after they were banned because of fears they might offend Muslims.
Honley C of E Junior School pupils were to perform the Roald Dahl story of Little Red Riding Hood and the pigs - but were told to substitute puppies.
Now a senior Kirklees councillor has insisted that the little pigs should be reinstated in the show.
Education chairman Clr Jim Dodds stepped in to reprieve the pigs, describing the ban as barmy.
No complaints had been made about the pigs appearing in the Kirklees Primary Music Festival event.
But festival organisers said the pigs should be replaced by the puppies because many Muslim children would be appearing in the Huddersfield Town Hall show, featuring more than 60 schools.
The committee organising the concert decided that Muslim children may not want to sing about pigs.
Now Clr Dodds says the decision has been overturned.
He added: "There is something barmy going on here and it has happened on my watch."
"I can tell you now that the three little pigs will be back in the school musical festival.
"The decision to ban the pigs was made by well-meaning people - but it was the wrong decision.
"Let's stick with the traditions," he added.
The festival is due to take place in June.
A spokesman for the British Muslim Association said: "It is wrong when people try to decide what Muslims think, without ever asking for their opinions."
The festival takes place on June 12, 13 and 14.

Seems to be no end to the line of people lined up to kiss the collective Muslim ass; did it ever occur to anyone that if the Muslimin don't like it there, they can GO HOME where their culture is more appreciated?
Thats the Guardian reading pc brigade here in the UK, after all why should muslims kick off when dhimmi's do the work for them?
