And at least I'm thankful for having the muslims (and people of other religious affiliations) here, because some of them don't mind working the usual holiday shifts (the rest of them celebrates Christmas in the same very non-religious way the rest of us does, but with less pork), instead being free on holidays. Because here you can usually choose to at least some degree when to have those days off.

Sure, there are problems with segregation, due to structural racism and a failed immigration policy built on idiocy and completely rid of empathy. And since Skåne has both lots of immigrants and racists, the problem is a tad bigger there. But people talking about "Muslim enclaves" are, in my experience, the same kind of people that talked about "the Jewish problem" in the 30's.

Replacing it with another, secular, holiday seems the responsible thing to do. - 27/05/2012 11:15:11 PM 433 Views

Most of them are stolen from heden traditions and have nothing to do with christianity. - 27/05/2012 07:15:55 PM 680 Views

I think Grunnlovsdagen ate Ascension Day. - 28/05/2012 02:57:27 AM 562 Views
It's funny how you use "federal" to mean "mandated by national government". - 28/05/2012 03:49:17 PM 465 Views
I was thinking more "central" government, but OK. - 28/05/2012 04:26:38 PM 492 Views

I did, though the practical effect is much the same. - 01/06/2012 08:41:03 PM 561 Views
There's a lot of countries that call "devolution" federalism, though. - 01/06/2012 09:52:23 PM 561 Views
What about when most of the country is still under central control? - 02/06/2012 10:25:47 AM 463 Views
I wasn't saying the UK is a normal federal country. - 02/06/2012 10:17:08 PM 518 Views
