So, what, you're saying that you don’t care whether something is made with child labour? I can see that they might have made a mistake in mis-identifying these Tam-Tam things as a problem, but assuming for now that they had spotted something that they knew was being made with child labour, would you still be dismissing the decision as politically correct? We’re not talking about thirteen-year-olds with a paper round here, we’re talking about the under-10s being exploited mercilessly. Can you really be so callous? And why assume that because the council has decided one small thing, that means they’ve paid no attention to anything else? I work in government and trust me, we are capable of thinking about more than one thing at once.

I notice the news report casually dropped the term “politically correct” into the text as though it were a fact, when it’s actually their value judgement. My experience of the media is that they do this as a dog-whistle - they want to elicit a gut response from the reader, and close down thought. For goodness sake, let’s not do the same thing.

Sorry Sean, but I really don't give a damn about the labor laws or politics of other countries. I really don't care if kids or granny make my chocolate easter bunnies, if you do, that's fine by me. I'll still eat my chocolate Easter bunnies and EGGS. Whether Kids, granny or one eye jacks are making them does not matter to me in the least, nor what they get paid to do it. I also eat red meat, shoot animals, and kill fish and thank God every day for the US Marine Corps
