There are many parts of bonfire you could get offended by if you were so inclined, but it being misogynistic due to Frau May being a tableaux is really stretching it.
Just posting as I thought you would all appreciated the laugh.
The amount of general ignorance about Lewes is unbelievable, it's not really about the 1605 gunpowder plot, more the Lewes martyrs, hence the 'No Popery' etc.
I can see Lewes Bonfire eventually being cancelled, either through ridiculous health & safety or because it is no longer politically correct. Are the young people going to carry this on, or are they slowly being turned in to massive snowflakes and Lewes Bonfire eventually becomes uncool because of the crap that is spread on twatter and other news links. I used to love going to Lewes Bonfire as a child.

Cracking day/night marched just in front of May

Genuine question.
What do the Old Bill give as the reasons for tightening their restrictions?
Violence and arrests? i.e antisocial behaviour.
Cost of policing?
"Snowflakery" everywhere?
What a load of total buffoonery this is. Societies for a bloody bonfire? Guy Fawkes wasn't even the main villain, so why commemorate him? He was the Ronny Biggs of the operation, a nobody. All taken far too seriously, load of old knackers.
