Round-up

1. David Cameron says rudeness and swearing in public should be as "unacceptable as racism".

For once I actually sort of agree with Dave. These things SHOULD be seen on equal ground with racism, for when you strip back the layers of PC rhetoric and overblown guilt-mongering, they are indeed very similar. However, I'm also for free speech so I would rather people were honest with each other than feigned a nicey-nicey approach.

2. Reports of racist incidents in schools across Warwickshire are on the rise.

I'm betting that at least half of these have very tenuous links to racism, if any at all.
