Still like you say, I won't be planning a Skiing Holiday in Hell just yet or for the foreseeable future, sadly.

Whoever wins the election will make no difference in this direction, because unfortunately its gone to far one and in a lot of cases entrenched in legislation, in any case it wouldn't be a question of whats right for the country, the race card would be flying out from the pages of the Guardian and Independent

Re: Insult to Muslims
did you know that the race card was origionaly white as it was the only colour they found they could use without someone moaning their skin colour been used until somone asked why it wasnt black ,yellow,brown or red so the race card scheme was abandoned as it was discovered that no matter what colour was used somone would have some problem or other with it.
green was considered for a short while along with many other colours but as of yet no one can say for definate what colour an aliens skin will be should they ever visit and dare not risk a racial incident upon first contact

Re: Insult to Muslims
Turkey, which is a predominantly Muslim faith country, is a secular society, that bans the wearing of headscarves in public schools, and all public buildings.

Re: Insult to Muslims
Similar action in Belgium - how long before it becomes an EU Directive?

Re: Insult to Muslims
I wonder if either Jones, Buckley or any of the other candidates would be prepared to favour the banning of the Burkas in their election leaflets?

Re: Insult to Muslims
i dont see why they shoudlnt be banned as they have absolutely nothing to do with their faith its simply to show respect to their husbands so unless the husbands are going to start wearing them i assume it means they have no respect for their wives.
unless of course somone has an english translation from the quaran handy saying women shoudl cover their faces that is.
alas this topic has been talked about many times here and elswhere and as of yet we have yet to have any government to show any backbone at all and at least ban them in public especially when driving a car

Granville might. Here's an excerpt from UKIP's Mini Manifesto:
15 Culture & Restoring Britishness
· End support for multiculturalism and promote one shared British culture for all
· Be fair to England by introducing an ‘English Parliament’, ending the discriminatory Barnett Formula and
making St George’s Day a national holiday in England
· Ban the burka and veiled niqab in public buildings and certain private buildings
· Require UK schools to teach Britain’s contribution to the world and celebrate cultures, languages and
traditions from around the British Isles
· Scrap political correctness in public affairs

Aye, I know what UKIP's policy is...but what have Jones and Buckley to say? The simple answer is nowt - they are too afraid of losing the Muslim vote. Quite a contrast to our French & Belgian neighbours, whose politicians have reached cross-party concensus on banning the burka in public.
Still, I don't have a vote in Hyndburn; mine is in LBTH and at the moment it's war down here. Jihad George (Galloway) has mobilised his mob and they are out intimidating every poor sod on the streets. I won't bother with the stories - this site, afterall, is all about Accy. But just hope that what is now happening down here will never happen there.
