Every time I hear Coldplay, I am encourage to kill someone. I am glad that the Â鶹Éç will not be playing them any more.

Will the Â鶹Éç stop playing the 1970 number one single 'In The Summertime' by Mungo Jerry, with its infamous lyrics "Have a drink, have a drive..."?

Anyone want to ban crime stories, detective novels and thrillers?

If the Tory party leader has any concerns let him post individually on Â鶹Éç blogs like everyone else. The Â鶹Éç Governors reduce their credibility by paying attention to "high profile" opinions rather than the aggregate feedback received directly.

ian, please don't kill anyone.
Governors, please don't encourage inaction and rhetoric.
everyone, please be nice.

So its OK for Clarkson to perform a Nazi salute, but not OK to show the Mohamed cartoons. Very balanced Â鶹Éç.
