Please tell me this is satire ![]()
Not since the Communists in WWII have we had a political organisation that accepts rape as a means to achieve victory. On top of that they want euthanasia to get rid of the elderly and think abortion at nine months isn’t murdering babies. This version of Labour is the most disgusting party this country has ever had and when you look at their bland midwit faces you realise that ‘the banality of evil’ is back..
Here’s a still from Hello Cheeky to keep Wendoverstrawman happy!
Yes we do. I think your last post crossed a line.
It’s a (benny) hill I’m willing to die on.
This thread will sink like a stone when the new season starts. So there’s no need to worry.
Case in point.
Translation: the politics thread was fine until people started expressing opinions that weren’t the same as mine.
I might switch sides and demand the thread is banned because
A) my reputation as the king of whimsy is in tatters.
B) I’m never going to top that Benny Hill post.
I didn’t think this was a site where people would or could openly express Islamophobia but hey ho. Not something I’m interested in engaging in any further.
It’s the same old ignorant tropes about the other that have been spread through the ages. Read about the things that were said about Chinese immigrants at the turn of the century. Read about Clifford’s Tower. Read To Kill a Mockingbird. This is why we should study history.
And then believe that my truth is the truth. Perhaps opening the curtains and taking a look outside might help.
I’m happy to leave the discussion there. Clearly it makes people uncomfortable. Feel free to read the report, read about Islam, read about what happens to women in these countries, and come to your own conclusion.
Your knowledge is just awe inspiring tbh.
The othering was in choosing to turn a blind eye to the crimes of one group, when other groups would have received the full force of the law in double quick time.
In any case, othering is a feature of the multiculturalism you love - by definition.
I thought the woke brigade had erased true history if it didn’t fit their idea of what history should look like.
This thread is like a packet of those really sour sweets, Toxic Waste.
You don’t really like it but somehow they are irresistible, even though every time you go there it ends up with a horrible feeling in your mouth.
Ha ha, poetic. I resisted the urge to post on here for a long time, as I couldn’t be bothered with the puerile and predictable arguments from the other side of the aisle. Then I just made one naughty little comment…
Don’t you feel better now you’ve ditched that sideways look wry comedy observer pose and you’re being true to yourself?

My parting shot to this thread is -
A few years ago I had very interesting conversations with both a Moroccan Imam & not long after with one from Bosnia, they broadly said the same.
a) Islam is no more a mono-culture than Christianity or Judaism or any other significant religion
b) As Islam moved out of the middle East it met many different cultures & traditions, it was often layered on top of those cultures etc. as people converted, all the imams tried to do was eliminate the worst behaviours.
c) They both pointed out that men from the Indian subcontinent have always treated their women folk & especially women who are not of their tribe like shit, sadly Islam did little to moderate this.
From personal experience there is a world of difference between muslims from the western Arab states/Balkans/west of Turkey & those from the “stans”; also there is a world of difference between well educated second/third generation British muslims & their parents or even more so their relations who are still living back in the “stans”. We do ourselves a huge disservice by painting all adherents of Islam with a singular brush, they share the complexities of all humanity from the virtuous few, through the decent majority to the bad uns who in some cases are prepared to do unspeakable things to their fellow humans.
