Just hope there isn't a significant attack on U.S. soil (I mean something on Paris scale) as that could sway people towards him if they're suitably scared.

I saw the years of the links I put up and so what? Stuff just gets pushed out of sight- doesn't mean it's gone away. The fact that it was there in the first place is very disturbing.

I don't think anyone can be accused of xenophobia - phobia is a very strong word, the type of rhetoric used by the left to gag the masses, like the word 'racist', designed to make people who are suspicious, or careful, think there is something wrong with them...well I for one am extremely suspicious of an 'organisation', 'cult' or whatever , that has set up what is effectively a parallel society and made it abundantly clear that they think the way of life of the 'infidel' is inferior (and has been unashamedly courted by politicians of almost all persuasions).

Even some members the Muslim Council of GB, when asked for its opinion of the Charlie Hebdo murders, said they deplored the murders, but added the proviso that Charlie Hebdo shouldn't take the piss out of the prophet, or words to that effect.

I do remember this video doing the rounds (immigration officers

in Rye Lane) provoking the notion Rye Lane is no go for some reason

(look at the comments).




The Rye Lane I know is nothing like that of course - If I dropped

a cigarette there I'd be pulled :).

I haven't read all this thread, I'm just idly browsing before bed. so I'm sorry to jump in.


I obviously don't condone the Charlie Hebdo murders, but in my opinion the cartoonists were poking a bear with a stick.


The nature of how Muslims/Mohammed were portrayed in the cartoons was compared by many to the portrayal of Jews in cartoons in Germany before and during the war.


If that comment isn't relevant then please ignore, I don't want to send the thread off course.

Charlie Hebdo has poked fun at Judaism and Christianity as well- the Pope has particularly been hard hit and France is a catholic country -in fact ever since I can remember there have been jokes poking fun at religion...primarily because it is a load of twaddle designed to control people and deserves to be ridiculed at every opportunity...

I'm not surprised that a quarter of Brits (in fact I'm surprised it isn't more people)agree with Trump's views on this. And exactly who compared the cartoons to Jews in cartoons before the war?...the caricatures of everyone are well known- everyone is lampooned and it is funny...comparing Islam to the Spanish Inquisition would not be far from the truth.

I don't think there is anything wrong with Muslim leaders condemning the violence of the Charlie Hebdo murders while saying that the cartoons were offensive.


You can think something is wrong (and people often do) without condoning violence. In fact, unless I missed something, I don't think they were suggesting that it should be illegal to make fun of the profit, but just that they think its wrong and offensive. People say they are offended by things other people do all the time so I'm not really sure what your point on that is.

I don't think they find cartoons only 'offensive'.

And in Poland you can be jailed under article 196 of their Penal Code for public calumny of religious objects.

Humanity will never move on and get out of the mire of state sanctioned persecution of atheism at this rate

Try the Bible for size. This is what it says about women:

Has anyone else seen this:

I can't begin to unpack it. The layers of self-reference and narcissism are obviously plastered on extremely thickly. But I can't see what Trump thinks would be funny about it.


Just, can't, compute.

And what makes you think that must Muslims in Britain do? That wasn't the position taken by those you were accusing of defending the Charlie H murders.

When talking about the very specific issue of beating children, or indeed FGM, yes you can expect people to behave in a way that the law in the country they live in would expect.



That's pretty different from expecting people to just leave their culture behind and fit in with "our" ways.



As well I am sure you realise.



Unless you're a complete idiot.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
