The recent credit crunch has affected many areas of our lives, but the effect on our military will be hardest felt. They desperately need proper protection, supplies and equipment. We feel that as our leaders are busy bailing out the reckless banks, they should consider spending a few billion on providing the people on the real frontline with much needed support.

BA Boycott was started as a response to the decision by British Airways to refuse an employee the right to wear a small cross around her neck. As a devout Christian, she felt that this was an important part of her faith, just as muslims, Sikhs and Hindus are allowed to wear items they deem part of their faith.
The site went live on the morning of the 23rd of November 2006 and quickly became a hot topic. On the first day almost 2,000 unique visitors and 25,000 page views made the site the go-to place for information about 'Crossgate' as it was becoming known. In the following days over 7,000 emails were received, most in support of Nadia, and several interviews were given by The England Society to news outlets around the world.

Unless you are just in from Mars, you can hardly have escaped noticing what seems to be a national campaign to eliminate all references to Christmas from the public conciousness.A survey in 2006 by a British newspaper found that only about 1 percent of the Christmas cards sold in the country have a religious message. Nativity scenes, shepherds in the fields and the three kings following the star have given way to dancing meerkats or scenes of winter weather. The fact is there would be no winter celebration at all without Christmas. The idea that there is a "holiday season" is based almost entirely on the existence of Christmas, Jewish celebrations notwithstanding. This subject has also been covered in Wikipedia.Logically, anyone celebrating a "holiday season" would be acknowledging Christmas even though they probably didn't mean to anyway. Even the actual word holiday derives from Holy Day.
