Nigel should now join the independent democrat's-You only go forward then and with no party political blindness or a woman blinded with no direction! I have been a candidate a few times and beat LIB dems and labour on each occasion with Tory as the winner..But I fight for the local public and England and not a so-called son of a church(Brown) or toff(guess who?)...forget Harry/England and that lot, that was in their day, this 2008 and is for the people, by the people and for the people and not by the rich for the rich to milk the public to bring us back to Serf days!-Ask any party political symathasizer why they vote for their party, many say I always have and that answer says it all and proves they never move on, so we are largely governed due to pathetic and apathetic voters that says it's easier to put an x on a ballot paper than voice their opinion where it councts and I do not mean in the local pub or through local newspapers up against a computer screen!-

Next time- and that's EXACTLY how I go up next May 2009 with 'I want a contract' between the voter and the candidate, the agenda will be there, agreed by the local public and if the candidate ignores it, then a by-election clicks in, or else why vote in this day and age. We need more than a pretty face, nice legs, moustache, suit surely to get our vote?---18 years of Tory(15% interest rates and high unemployment) and 11 years of LABOUR(need you be reminded?), ALL LEADERS HAVE MADE FROM US ALL!-I feel the next elections over the next five years will be your last effective one's, for after that you will have the state that's never been wanted, which is a NEW ORDER, you will certainly know you are living in it when you get whipped off the streets for just talking about a bad council service?

Ok, I think you are confused a little here firstly I couldn't give a monkeys arse about the EU, my concern is with Britain and Britain alone. Given a chance I would withdraw Great Britain from the EU immediately.

Nobody has ever been jailed for saying that WW2 never happened as it quite obviously did. David Irving a historian was jailed by the Austrians as I recall for denying that the holocaust ever occured quite ridiculous really but there you go.

However you are saying that WE look ridiculous after Sudan - another stone age Islamic country has jailed a British woman for allowing her class to name a teddy bear Mohammed? utter nonsense.

Er no actually it's not, are there any forms of Islam for example that do not accept stoning as a punishment?

What are your views on Mohammed the teddy bear?

On one hand the entire EU preaches free speech, on the other hand, they jail people for simply saying they dont believe World War 2 ever happened. That is how rediculous we look to outsiders. No wonder they dont respect us. We dont even respect our own values.

It is clear that you only know the Saudi form of Islam which most muslims reject as a perversion of the their faith.

This is like presenting Ku Klax Klan as a representatives of Jesus.

I'm confused now - how can the police or the government solve the problem when the Muslim community believe that every house raided constitutes a racially motivated attack by the police.

Surely when investigating Islamic terrorists a vast percentage of people arrested, searched or questioned would be Muslim? This is purely common sense but you call it a police state.

Britain is a small island being filled to the brim with groups of people of varying religions and beliefs who rather than integrate with the British way of life expect the indigenous population to change to suit them. Dr Bari for example - His aim, he says, will be to encourage Britain to adopt more Muslim ways, to stop drinking and gambling and to follow many of the teachings of Islam.

I wonder what would happen if I moved to an Islamic country and in a newspaper interview said I wanted that country to adopt more British ways, a few casinos, alcohol freely available and free speech for all. Hmm I know.

These events and those that perpetrate it are as much my problem as they are yours, as much a problem the muslim community has to resolve as does the govt and police.

What I resent is this idea that because these men claim they acted out of Islamic convictions the muslim community has to be held to account for their actions and they are expected to come up with a solution.

To the best of my knowledge mosques and islamic centres are making an effort in the light of these events to engage with young ppl and draw them away from militant propaganda.

But their efforts can alone cannot solve this rise of terrorism.

To be frank I don't know what the solution is perhaps you can enlighten me.

"I am muslim but I did not carry out those actions and I don’t believe any knowledgeable muslim could have done such a thing"

And that is exactly the problem, the Muslim community denies involvement and buries it's head in the sand everytime something happens instead of taking hold of the problem and trying to do something about it.

By saying that no knowledgeable Muslim could have done such a thing you are in effect saying 'not my problem' knowledgeable or not the bombers were not just terrorists who happened to be Muslim but acting they believed in the name of Islam.

No ones house is 'easily' raided in the middle of the night Muslim occupants or otherwise. Senior police officers, judges mountains of paperwork, intelligence, 2,000,000 spent - this wasn't done on a hunch to justify this kind of spending would suggest that there is alot more to this than meets the eye.

Mohammed Abdulkahar was not shot on grounds of suspicion he was shot accidentally, obviously very different to the sensational idea that you were suggesting that our police force now "shoot only on grounds of suspicion"

British soldiers and Police were indeed bombed by Jewish terrorists in the 1940's During the crusades Christians rampaged through the middle east and yes the Tamil Tigers have used suicide bombers. The IRA are a catholic group but I would suggest their actions were instigated by territorial claims rather than religion.

I think you missed the point though, i'm talking about this country AND this century, we have only one problem - militant Islam.

As for invites the nationality act was just that, an act of parliament allowing commonwealth citizens free entry to Britain, not an invite. it was believed at the time that not many people would want to come here to settle.

We invited them here? I don't remember being asked...

Mike, There is a difference between expressing an opinion and ridiculing someone’s faith, which only serves to polarize people, which in the present climate is unhelpful to say the least. I think this is what these “leading muslims” you refer to were trying to express but more often than not, people only hear what they want to.

Do I need to mention 7/7? It was as frightening for myself as it was for you, but if you want an apology you won’t get it from me, I am muslim but I did not carry out those actions and I don’t believe any knowledgeable muslim could have done such a thing.

When I cited the forest gate incident I was giving you the p.o.v of a muslim living in the UK, that quite easily their hse could be raided in the middle of the night and ppl shot only on grounds of suspicion.

The people who think for themselves are those who have the chance to stop the snowball. The more there are the better our chance as a society.

Unfortunately, as history teaches us over and again, most people -- regardless of religion -- don't think for themselves. But prefer to be led by emotional calls.

Fortunately, English cynicism and scepticism makes them less likely to be carried by cheap rhetoric than most other nations. However, less likely is not the same as unlikely. It is those who think for themselves, regardless of religion and authenticity, which should be heard more rather than the formal lines.

Suicide bombers - Hindu's in the partition of India to rid the country of Muslims. Also in the 40s British soldiers in the middle east were bombed by Jewish terrorists, and need I mention the religious and territorial actions of the IRA? Don't act as though only one religion perpetrates international crime.

Invite to the country, 2 cases.
The British Nationality Act in 1948 which gave all commonwealth citizens free entry to Britain was an invite to any commonwealth person, including muslims, to come settle here.
Also in 1972 Idi Amin kicked out the minority of Asian people from Uganda, many of them Muslims. We invited them here to seek asylum.

You have just proven my point for me in it's entirety. Knowingly or not you have already assumed the role of 'victim'

Let me tell you what is scary about living in Britain, mad mullahs preaching hate against the west, suicide bombers and the rise of militant Islam.

You do not mention 7/7 but cite 'Forest Gate' where the Police acted on specific - albeit incorrect intelligence and accidentally shot a Muslim male, do you really think the Police spent over 2,000,000 on the raid acting out of racism against Muslims?

Interestingly you point out that Dr Bari has the right to express his opinion, (and in doing so has offended many thousands of people) Leading Muslims have clearly stated that freedom of speech should not apply to those speaking of, or rather criticising Islam, a one way street perhaps?

In response to:Islamic hypocrisy at it's best

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 11:40:29 +0100

^^ really? I am muslim and he has given me no such excuse, I have a mind of my own and surprisingly other muslims in the UK do as well. Dr Bari has the right to express his opinion but he does not speak for each and every muslim.

What is scary about living in Britain as a muslim is the new laws which make it v. easy for the police to detain ppl (or should I say muslims) without charge for so long and do as much as they please for apparently no reason (rem the forest gate incident?)

We are going through unprecedented times and muslims will feel particularly under scrutiny but it is really important not to isolate the muslim community in general and to make them feel like the are the enemies that eveyone is watching, which I admit is not an easy task.

anyway thats my two cents!

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 10:24:10 +0100

You are absolutely right, I think we are at a point though where it is getting increasingly difficult to appease the Muslim community.

After 7/7 many Muslims including some families of the suicide bombers blamed the bombings on a British government conspiracy rather than accept that their fellow Muslims had done this. They then of course claim that they are victimised and living in a police state.

The reality is that that tighter security across the UK, the debate about ID cards and further laws to assist in the war on terror affect us all, and are caused as a direct result of the actions of Muslim militants in the UK.

Dr Bari as you have said has given every Muslim in the UK an excuse to blame their adoptive country for any mishap that may befall them.

In response to:Islamic hypocrisy at it's best

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 00:08:35 +0100

A scary thing is that facts don’t matter. They never have, they never will. What Dr. Bari is trying to do is no different to what most other politicians do. Invoke emotions. People don’t check facts, they react. If Muslims will start laming any misfortune they have on victimisation, that he has achieved his goal. How to change this course of event, is our real challenge.

You may be interested in the Miranda Grell story, which rumbles on locally in Walthamstow - she spread lies about a rival candidate in a situation where it would quite clearly lead to him being seriously endangered. Despite her conviction as a liar, the Labour party will not disassociate itself from this awful woman.

Should Nigel Hastilow remain loyal to the Conservative Party that sacked him as its Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for saying "Enoch was right"?

Vote on this at:

http://www.1party4all.co.uk

Nigel Hastilow says he wants to do nothing to harm the Conservative Party of which he is still a member and confirms that he wants a Conservative government.

What is the point of remaining loyal to a Party led by a leader infamous for his lack of policies and principles, who predictably had him sacked the moment he voiced the genuine concerns of his prospective constituents?

Does this mean he lacks the qualities to be either a career politician (because he spoke the truth) or a conviction politician (because he apologised for speaking the truth)?

Did he BLUNDER into this controversy without a strategy?

Is it good riddance to someone who will only enrage his masters for not toeing the party line and disappoint his constituents for not sticking to his guns?

Yes comments such as these may offend someone who is on the 'touchy' side I completely agree. The points I made were disputing the fact that this was racially motivated and the sheer over-reaction by Mr Khan.

You originally argued that this was discrimination based on the fact that Mr Khan is Asian.

What if the man in question being referred to as a 'Guantanamo prisoner' was a white man of British origin? Would this story have made the national newspapers, would anybody even be bothered? would Mr Davies be jumping up and down accusing everyone in the UK of prejudice and Islamaphobia?

The answer to all my questions of course is no.

On the contrary I don't believe Mr Hasilow should have been fired or forced to resign. I believe free speech is there to defend all views no matter how disagreeable I might find them. I am merely debating your views and stating my standpoint on them.

Reading your posts, you don't seem like the type of person who would associate themselves with Muslims. What I would ask you is how can you not see how being referred to in such a manner would not be seen as offensive? That's not exercising freedom of expression, it's merely being offensive for offence' sake.

Oh I see people like me are all wrong and people like you are all right! If only i'd known that I wouldn't have bothered writing my blog in the first place.

You present no argument just the bold statement that I am wrong and you are right typical of what I would expect from the PC brigade.

The mere mention of anything sensitive provokes not debate but accusations of hate and racism. Just like Mr Hastilow it appears I must be racist for having an opinion.

I haven't claimed to hate Muslims you have assumed that I do, you even assume that I hate Muslims 'due to the way they look' a rather childish stereotype at best.

I have no doubt you believe muslims and aren't discriminated against in this country, and are just touchy. The fact is people like you, Richard Littlejohn et al are wrong. You've never been discriminated against in the fashion these people are, just like blacks were after the Windrush, the Irish before them and the Jews before them.

I don't have the time or energy to spend hating people for the way they look, it's a shame you do.

Try reading the argument and replying sensibly. Not being a 'Nonce Bucket' as you so eloquently put it, no I wouldn't mind being called one (if I happened to be called Michael Jackson)

My argument if you had bothered to read it was about my exasperation at the race card being played at every conceivable opportunity, and the wolly minded liberals who jump on the bandwagon in their defense.
