These are my thoughts entirely. As such, I have always referred to ‘Christmas’ and so do most colleagues. I also thought the notion that ‘we can’t say Christmas anymore’/ ‘Christmas is banned’ was moral-panic nonsense?.
Less than half the UK population identify as Christmas so most people celebrate it as a cultural holiday. Most Muslims love Christmas-we don't want it banned. Not sure who the renaming of Christmas events as 'Winter' is for - but it is definitely not for/by/or with Muslims 1/3.

Reproducing pathologising and harmful stereotypes of working class to describe the right wing protesters won’t emancipate folk of colour and religion from violent bigotry. Working class people hear you, the vast majority of which are not the problem, and you become the problem.
