Actually Disneyland is anything but a bastion of political correctness - I
had to endure a visit there last year and was completely taken aback at the
casual racism and national stereotyping in the It's a small world ride,
complete with Irish leprechauns, Africans with grass skirts and bones
through their noses, Native Americans looking like extras from Bonanza, etc.
Although funnily enough no Frenchmen in stripy jumpers and berets......
