Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

But this protestis of a seriously disruptive nature, wasting thousands of police man hours. I think that just because the Union weren't swayed by their meetings with various organisations doesn't mean they just ignored them, and it doesn't mean that they should be subject to such a torrent of protest. Also, the protest wasn't just a demonstration of opinion, it was an active attempt to disrupt and delay the debate, which involved some illegal activities.
