I have yet to find it beneficial to my cause, to have the law on my side reggie.


Erm...what "cause" would that be?


*awaits response with impatience*

I have just googled fatwa and found that they are rarely bad and are mostly clarifications of Islamic law made by an Islamic scholar.

I am confident that if a fatwa was issued to Sly and Reggie it would be....'turn it up'

Some music

I also read this in wikipedia


"In 2005, the Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has issued the Fatwa that the production, stockpiling and use of nuclear weapons are forbidden under Islam and that Iran shall never acquire these weapons."

You've just reminded me of that fabulous comedienne from Iran (sorry forgotten her name)...she commented once that "the British" always seemed to get Iraq and Iran confused...and then went on to say that she couldn't understand why...distinguishing between the two countries was easy...she said:


Iran is the country WITH the weapons of mass destruction!


(Well I found that funny).

Shappi Khorsandi - and yes I found that line hilarious too. She is totally brilliant, clever and funny.

I think criminalising the membership is wrong, its just giving them a false sense of importance and credence....having lived overseas, I really do value the freedom of speech in the UK!

It's OK...you are allowed to go "off topic" in the Lounge (the main reason why I didn't post this in the Drawing Room!!).

Sorry to interrupt you a minute reggie *cheeky grin*

Saudi, India, and yes it definitely has a different feel in the UK/West....we take soooo much for granted I think (not intentionally I just feel differently by my overseas experiences and appreciate more the fact we can peacefully protest, say what we think, dress how we like, do what we want) :)


*gives floor back to reggie again*

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
