I'm not a fan of the Islamicification of this country.
Then again, I'm not a fan of Christians or Jews either, so I suppose my bigotry goes across the board.

This country isn't being Islamified.
in any way, shape or form, other than the distateful shite made up by wankers like the EDL and given a faux-legitimate voice by the cunts at the Mail and the Express.

We don't construct mosques, preach hatred or protest Christmas.
(Bear Pookie The Frankly Challenged. Halloween is coming to town., Fri 7 Oct 2011, 11:46, Reply)

a mosque is a building.
I fucking hate car parks but that's not a valid reason for protest.

there are as many "hatred-preaching" christians as there are muslims. More, in fact, and far more dangerous, because there's at least three in parliment.

And no-one, for the love of fuck, has ever "protested christmas".

I beg to disagree on the last statement,

The only person I've ever come across who seriously complained about xmas
was a Jehovah's Witness. She was proper mental, though.

no-one BANNED it.
It's not Islam's fault if individual schools are retarded. And my sister-in-law TAs in schools in preston and bolton so I can confirm it is individual schools.

in any case, they're hardly removing christams songs to celebrate Eid, are they? so it's got fuck all to do with Islam and a lot to do with one or two idiots or, possibly, a secularisation of schools in general, which is a good thing, right?

Nononono, no muslim, or non-christian, has ever been offended by "the flag" or christian holidays.
I have never, not once, not in all these years, seen anyone of a non-christian faith say "I hate christmas, I wish they would change it to Wintervile" or something like that.

It's always, if it happens at lal, councils who are doing it on behalf of these people, and they're doing it wrongly.

In all fairness, I think it was a council decision.

I was there yesterday as it happens.
areas that have high concentrations of people from an islamic background is not islamification. Nothing has been islamified in any way. We do not have a single law in this country that is "islamic". Not one single thing that affects yours or my daily life is now subjected to any "islamic" rules.

I struggle to see any difference between what you've just said and me objecting to the number of Scots that live on my street.

majority of Muslims living in the UK are British. You have as much valid right to object to them living here as I would have to object to Scots living in Scotland.
