Nursery Nazis


What's the greatest threat facing Britain today? Jihadists? Knife-wielding thugs? A resurgent Russia?

Nope; racist toddlers.

And oh, yes: Eat your peas!

Update: A neat riposte from Classical Values:
Wow. Does this mean that the next time a Muslim child says "yuck" to ham (or, say, to shrimp and shellfish) that he'll be condemned as "racist"?

If indeed this is true, surely the NCB would be complicit in child cruelty/assault ? Kids of 3 yrs don't have refined tastebuds and most would react to strange tasting food initially with a Yuk ! And certain is the case that some children and adults reject certain foods on the basis of being allergic to them.
Maybe NCB will say as the politicians like to say "We have been quoted out of context" Micen90

If you don't eat yer peas you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer peas?

Anyway, good to know the Brits are working on the really serious problems. We Yanks really are on our own, aren't we?

I'm torn. One on hand, this seems like an absolutely stupid thing to do, especially when concerning small children who probably can't grasp the concept of race, let alone racism.
On the other hand, I really dislike small children. I'm finding this tricky to balance!

I'm allergic to chocolate, does that make me anti-Swiss? Not that it would matter to the Swiss of course.
My ex-wife bought me a chocolate birthday cake the last year we were together, I think there was some anti-me sentiment going on there, so maybe there's something to this.
At some point they will have to target infants in high chairs and whether they spit out the stewed prunes, but I'm not sure what race that would be against. Perhaps against anal-idiotic legislators?
