And there lies the problem Wink

Is it like Rotherham, or is there something else we should know about?

Ask Salman Rushdie. He wrote about the failures of integration, the manipulation of the religion among many, many other things

Subsequently received a Fatwa for his work. The controversy at the time caused so much violence & intolerance from the Muslim community globally he needed protection from the Iron Lady.

Now here's part of the catalyst that lead us to where we are now. I think it's incredibly interesting and so should anyone else. At the time of this, late 80's. A man called Shabbir Akhtar, spoke to the commission for racial equality, insisting that 'Muslim sensibilities be protected from provocation'. Which can be interpreted as ANYTHING, and consistently is on a daily effing basis, that's why we're all racist infidels!

A journalist at the time was quoted saying. "We are witnessing, I fear, the birth of a new and dangerously illiberal "liberal" orthodoxy designed to accommodate Dr Akhtar and his fundamentalist friends."

25 years later and look at Britian. Those who made such statements then were admonished as bigots. Now it seems they were bang on.

Ahhh....takes me back.
August 1960 - rounders on the beach at Margate. Thanks, Peiowl.


RE: Thread For Anything But Football - talkSAFT - 23-08-2016

I agree with most political correctness.
Seems right that BBC have as many black pundits when there are as many black players as white these days, and are no less gormless.
Seems right that women should be paid the same as men for the same job.
etc etc

But tell me why, when there are 5% gays, there are more than 50% gays mincing about on our TV screen (TV Presenters, Actors,etc.)

JUSTICE AND EQUALITY FOR STRAIGHTS!

I know Angry it's f'ucking tough being an English white, able bodied, heterosexual male in Britain these days Cool

It gets even worse if you're employed too Doh


RE: Thread For Anything But Football - Daffodils on the piano - 24-08-2016

Maddix,if you are employed and women work at the same place it's even worse.You have to watch you every move and speech.You can't F and Blind,even though the women can probably out swear you.You daren't ask anyone of them for a shag anymore.

Folks, you're straying away from the real purpose of this thread. It's to talk about Coronation Street, Toronto Blue Jays and Montreal Canadiens. Now, let's stay on topic. Jays won again last night. Whistle Whistle Whistle Whistle
