From a British newspaper this week:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/new...ost-popular-name-for-baby-boys-in-London.html
"London is not the first European capital to see Mohammed become the number one name for baby boys. In Brussels, Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Oslo the name has already gained the top slot."
It may be ignorance on my part, but I'm amazed about Oslo being on the list. England, sure - we've been sleepwalking into this cultural shift for years, but Norway?
To me, this is just another example of how politicians' arrogance and ignorance combine to create significant sociological and cultural change, without asking the electors their views.
