Just an example of how museums have been hijacked by the politically correct crowd:

It is a few years since I visited Shildon railway museum in Durham (part of the Science Museum), and I was considering another visit. I looked on the website to check whether any special events were planned. Nothing about special locomotives, but a couple of events taking place throughout 2021:

· Climate Talks, a series of panel discussions, Q&As and events exploring the problems caused by climate change

· Open talk - Explore the issues around diversity and inclusion in STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths)

If I had wanted to learn about climate change or diversity I could switch on practically any programme on BBC. Nowhere seems to be immune from the woke agenda these days.
