This isn't political correctness, its tat like the daily mail making things up to make people angry. You can call a blackboard a blackboard, its not racist, it doesn't have a race, its an inanimate object.

I think it has something to do with when the easter bunny lays the Cadbury creme eggs.

What traditions have been changed? How has Easter been changed? I'm a Christian and have seen no change in it during my lifetime except more emphasis on chocolate and less on Jesus. That's not because "they" are taking our traditions away from "us", it's because fewer people identify as Christian these days.

You can use the term interactive whiteboards if you prefer. I believe that smartboard is a brand name that has become synonymous with the item, much like tarmac with asphalt, tannoy with public announcement system and hoover with vacuum cleaner.

I can't see how people find it offensive that someone calls a blackboard a chalkboard instead....

I've been doing some furniture lately, turning small tables into chalkboard desks for kids to draw on...i advertise them as chalkboard tables or desks....not because I don't want to say blackboard, but because it's just what I call them.

But it wasn't though, many things change in this country, but you are stating things that Rupert Murdoch has made you believe are down to religion, culture, ethnicity etc.

Recently things changed in this country as Camereon stepped down and May stepped in, i'm more concerned about that than the name of a blackboard.

Schools didn't stop using blackboards or calling them blackboards for political correctness reasons. That is a myth. And a shite one at that.

Dry wipe markers and white boards produce less mess (no chalk dust).

White boards became smart boards as technology moved in.

Quite a lot of educational establishments have a communication system called "blackboard" nobody's complained yet.

As far as I know any school that still uses a blackboard is at liberty to call it that. I don't actually know of a school that does though.

"We were in the doctors just yesterday and his remark was oops sorry can't say whiteboard anymore there called wipe boards proof enough "

How is that proof?

Did you ask him who told him that? If there was a particular request put out from someone somewhere?

"Does anyone not know what goes on in schools they changed the black board because it was classed as racist do yous all just spend your time on here "

No they changed" blackboard when they stopped being black, and became white, when they were then called white boards .

As for easter ; you mean the pagan spring festival ( just as every civilization, of any race, or nationality has a spring festival); the Christians stole that festival for their festival, just as they stole the pagan midwinter/ new year festival for their Christmas .

You really should stop reading the Daily Mail, or whatever xenophobic racist crap you read, and get educated.

Do you have examples of this? Where does this hatred come from?

No one I respect has ever considered it ok to be a bully. Regardless of your sexual orientation.

I don't think calling someone a puff or a faggot has ever been considered racist. However, if you're being homophobic then that's never ok. Why would you deliberately use offensive terms?

It's a good thing to mind your language and it's impact, it's so important to have empathy.

But sure, your privilege is being undermined. It's a scary new world where you might have to be nice to people.

From Google:

"World Egg Day is a unique opportunity to help raise awareness of the benefits of eggs and is celebrated in countries all around the world. World Egg Day was established at the IEC Vienna 1996 conference when it was decided to celebrate World Egg Day on the second Friday in October each year."

Which schools? I've got quite a few friends who are teachers in Gateshead. It's easily checked and then you can have your minds put at ease by getting confirmation from the people who actually work there that NONE OF THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING.

The " Easter egg scandal" was last year, until it was pointed out that nothing had changed, and that " Easter eggs " have seldom ever been labeled as "Easter Eggs"; on the basis that an egg, sold around Easter time is, an Easter egg.

And bearing in mind that the chocolate egg is a relatively new phenomenon; traditionally, "Easter" eggs were real eggs, painted ( in the pagan tradition) to denote the coming of spring.

This has been the most amusing thread I read in a while. With Brexit, US elections, Europe and many other big issues I get to read about chalk boards and white boards.

Did you know that telephones and typewriters went into decline because it offended the Spanish?

Bring back typewriters!

Move on and embrace the future. Or keep living in the past and be left behind. There are self driving cars, predictive technology, new inventions and discovery of new world's. I don't give a crap on how to call a board. I use tablets, computers and smart boards to collaborate with people across the world. That is amazing.

They're mostly Active boards these days. So don't write on them with a board marker! If they are the non-interactive version then you call it whatever colour it is. Blackboard if you're using chalk; whiteboard if you're using board markers. Some manufacturers call them drywipe boards because that's how they're used but whiteboard is still the most common. A quick trip to Google rather than getting my knickers in a twist over a non news story confirmed it.

We're not wrong.

I googled egg day, like you said, and found nothing on the first page apart from the fact there is actually a World Egg Day in October, which has nothing to do with Easter. Several people have posted that they use the phrases 'blackboards' and 'whiteboards' at school and college, without censure. The only proof you have posted is 'I know its true so ner!'. Not exactly deep debating there.
