Default Red Arrows banned from olympics - British PC strikes again

Did you look at the title of the group before pressing

Did you think that through before you hit the send
button?
The Red Arrows are British Ambassadors recognised the
world round as a
demonstration of excellence in synchro flying. I think
all the key words
