We should do him a favour and lead him by the nose to the nearest transport to take him out east! His rantings are subversive and seditious and to my mind are treasonable. Les Cheers Colin |

To be fair, this guy's not a real threat. Mi5 would much prefer that all of the enemy would be so open. Whilst he's a nauseating James Blunt, he's nothing more than an expensive distraction.

Yup, just described Adolf Hitler to a tee - look how he affected the 20th century! |

Do you think there are neutral, passive Muslims who will be drawn to ideological activism because this clown's giving it the big one? I should imagine that those susceptible will have already been quietly groomed by members of their community. |
NEVER! trust anyone with more fur on their chin than on their head. FACT!

First, I don't think this is an extremist message, I just think he's extremely stupid to show his hand. Extreme implies it's leftfield and opposed to the consensus. Is it? How many Islamic ideologists harbour the same view but conceal it? Second, the more vocal and publicity seeking he is, the easier it is for MI5 to monitor him. If he's drawing the (less cerebral) enemy out from underneath their rocks, fantastic, much better than them being seduced by the sophisticated clerics lurking undetected.

He mixes lies with truth like any good propagandist, and in the absence of such 'advertisement' I don't think any young people can be drawn to his message. |

At the firm where I work it seems to be frowned upon to wear a poppy since some of the pakistani employees made a formal complain about the wearing of poppies 'glorifying the killing of their muslim brothers and sisters' in Iraq or whatever, but we're still allowed to wear them if we want to.
We now celebrate eid in our offices now too :Whatever_ , however on the plus side it does mean free cakes :) |

Complain that eid offends you and you want the office based celebrations banned, see if it does, i bet it doesnt, racism only works if your not white |

I've a theory on this....
People at work actively look for things to complain about because they know that regardless of how stupid their comments are they'll likely receive some form of action. |

All of the companies employees wear their poppies with pride and again, this has never been mentioned at all by the Pakinstani employees or visitors. :thumb: |

By Siobhan McFadyen ( Notw ) Celtic have banned a charity from selling poppies at Parkhead for Remembrance Sunday . Now fundraisers are hoping that hoops chairman John Reid - former defense Secretary - will overturn the ruling. The ban follows protests by supporters who claim poppies are " hugely insensitive " to Irish fans. The Poppy Appeal,with its 48 member charities,helps raise millions for war veterans injured in active service. A charity insider said : " We've never been turned away by any of the big clubs and we find it shocking that Celtic would implement this ban " . Our welfare work is a lifeline for thousands.We hope Mr Reid will reconsider ". About 100 fans walked out of a match in2008 when players wore poppies on their shirts. But most of the 50,000 fans joined a one-minute round of applause to mark the anniversary of the end of WWI. A Celtic spokesman said " We don't do collections in the grounds for anything ". People are worried about the Pakistani population protesting about the poppy appeal when there is a so called Scottish team who constantly boast about their charity work refusing to help a charity.... |

OK then put your money where your mouth is. PM me the name and number of the company and I will give them a call about this policy. Don't worry I won't mention any names. |

No just questioning the stories of people who I think embeliish things to suit their own agenda. As you can see from the other responses I am probably not the only one, I just say it a bit more directly.
OK then put your money where your mouth is. PM me the name and number of the company and I will give them a call about this policy. Don't worry I won't mention any names. I'm not saying all people make up stories but I look at these tales with a little caution. At my work, we had two Muslims start, before they even did their first shift, people were up in arms about 'them' being allowed to pray during working hours. They were just assuming as they hadn't even started yet. I'm not sure whether they do (they both only do 5 hour shifts, so not sure of how many times they'd need to pray if they do at all) but as this has never been mention again, I assume it didn't become a big problem. What I did ask the complainers straight away was what would be the problem so long as it was done during break time? No answer to that other than to still claim it's not right. :brickwall It's ok for a person with more or less the same break entitlement to split theirs in two because they smoke, but it's not ok for someone to possibly use theirs to pray. There was another a few years back, and people around Christmas time were moaning about feeling awkward sending Christmas cards because it might offend and they shouldn't be made to feel that way. He even sent them all cards anyway, so obviously more of a problem to my white collegues than him. I have no time for people not willing to integrate within society, or the extremists out there, but I think we need to get a grip a little. Alot of what we hear are non stories put out there to stir up more hatred. And the overly PC brigade cause as many problems as they try to solve. |
