We hear the song every year and we rejoice at it's melody and all sing along in a merry swagger. Some lyrics of the song, which we've been singing for years, are now going to be dubbed out this Christmas when they are broadcast over the waves of Radio 1.

The line in question has been highlighted in my less than subtle headline. Radio 1 say they are blanking the word out "because some members of the audience might find it offensive." The song isn't far from being a British institution and the instant and exciting rhythm of the song is no doubt going to suffer.

Is this a move for the better or political correctness gone mad? Fire up your webcam's and let's have this debate full throttle!
