Did he also own a shop on attercliffe road?
I don't think so. Not THE Christopher Hitchens, anyway.

Not to those who share his right wing views when they read his newspaper columns.
Okay, but he's nothing in comparison. Christopher will be remembered for generations to come.

Yes I am for real.

 

The OP isn't about religions imposed on this nation etc.

... I feel that Summer Solstice would make an excellent bank holiday.
Not half! Bring it on...

I'd go one further and make all the atheists work 25th December for normal pay. After all its just a normal day isn't it? :)
Silly. Atheists need to be off with everyone else to enjoy all the traditional Christian things like snogging under the mistletoe for example!

Speak for yourselves. Some of us still know the meaning of Christmas.
Giving, not just receiving presents! :)

Isn't the Mayday bank holiday Labour day, if so the socialists have come through, so what we need is for the others to pull their weight.

 

.

 

not in the United States, they didn't. Their Labor Day, is in September, not May. President Grover Cleveland, had other ideas about having a token day for the industrial working class, to take their day off. It was only in May, in the commie places, like Europe. Cleveland made a stand. In the United States, Labor day had to be in September.

 

and you know what? It still is.

You may, but the majority of folk do not care about the religious connection.Its all about material things now and very commercial.Even few cards show any religious context now,wether you accept it or not christianity in the uk is on its last legs.
