Eid and Diwali are being celebrated alongside Christmas in a council streetlight display.
Although the Hindu and Muslim events have already passed, the lights are being kept up by Rochdale Council in order to ‘represent the community’.
Bosses are said to be so anxious not to offend other faiths that they are ensuring the display incorporates the other celebrations as well as the Christian festivities.
Time to celebrate: Rochdale Council has turned on its festive lights incorporating Christmas, Eid and Diwali
Are we in a Christian country, so guilt ridden that we can't even celebrate our religious festival, without some middle-class guilt trip? This is is left-wing PC shite and it's time they were taken down.

Won't happen DL.
Where I am right now Diwali just ended, the Christmas decorations are going up, and the shopping Malls are playing Christmas songs. Of course I am in a Muslim country.
Harbingers, sadly, I think you're right.
Steve, unfortunately I'm not into Christianity or indeed any religion, but if it floats your boat, to use a phrase I hate, go ahead. You are no worse or better than a Muslim fanatic. I will say however, that you do follow an impressive amounts of blogs. I don't know where you find the time to keep up with them. Please come back and actually give us an opinion instead of hoping I will convert back to a church going Christian, cause it ain't going to happen.
John, welcome to the blog. I'm not quite sure, if you're taking the piss or you are genuinely in a Muslim country. If so which one is it? Would it have more to do with Muslims making money rather than religion?
Antonio, no I didn't come across that story, I'll look out for it, but it sound extremely plausible. I think the ethnic whites in this country are being pushed into a corner by the politicians and something has got to give soon.
There aren't any Christians left in Rochdale anyway DL.
Doc Spacker, ach you might be right. But this is what happens when the bastards move into an area and take over. First it's Christmas, then they're on the licensing boards and pub are getting turned down for extra hours, unless they're owned by immigrants. I think you see the way this is heading!
Round my way a chain of old age peoples Homes are reported to be refusing to pay bonuses to staff who work on Christmas Day because that would be showing preference to "one particular reigion" in contravention of their 'deeply held belief in diversity and equality'.
Cunts.
Banned, quite right too. I hope they're getting a few bob for working Ramadan. Mind you they'll be entitled to a day off for the Royal wedding. Hurrah! Hurrah!
