TooPC? or pragmatic?
Pragmatism vs principle?
There was a report of Boris in N.Ireland yesterday of a council member who didn't recognise the Queen and who found honouring the British State offensive so they paid him to walk past the queen's portrait in the house. This was quoted by some as the height of PC stupidity. But if it resulted in easing the tensions in NI and helped save lives and end violence then it was not ' PC gone mad' but pragmatic. If PC happens in an ivory tower its an intelllectual exercise then maybe its criticisable and in some cases extreme- but if it eases his way to work where things get dealt with then why not?
how close to the conflict, how close to the reality it addresses, is it?
