The painting removed from the Swedish Parliament for fear of offending Muslims and Feminists


No, honestly - it's true. Read all about it in The Commentator, here. To be fair to my fellow-Scandinavians, even the derangedly liberal Swedes think think this is crazy.

Remember how liberals used to snigger about silly Victorian prudery, even going so far as to make up stories about piano legs being covered for the sake of decency?

The Salisbury Review website has a picture of a guillotine on it, below the headline "Islam: The West Mounts the Scaffold". Struck me as a bit OTT at first - no longer!
