English Icons: have your say .. for 3 months

I read an article in tonight's Shropshire Star about the Icons website which has spent the last year or so (and £1m of English taxes) diligently getting the public's opinion on what the top English Icons are.

The Department of Culture, Media and Sport then relaunched the site last week with a British government approved top ten list of multi-culti British icons which we are supposed to revere as the saviour of our culture.

I now find myself asking the question why the Icons website is bothering to take votes from teh public at all because, despite the top ten list being almost totally replaced within days with the icons English people originally voted for, they plan to replace the list with another multi-culti approved list of top ten icons in 3 months time.

Perhaps they don't trust English people who could vote fox hunting into first place despite clear instructions from the Labour Party that hunting foxes with dogs is very naughty and we really don't want it to carry on no matter how much we protest against the ban.
