Yes, also if you asked them if they were going to join ISIS within the next 10 minutes you'd see a smaller percentage.
I don't see how changing the wording or context of these questions changes the fact that a high level of muslims surveyed gave answers which I (correctly) think are morally shitty.

The phrasing of a question and the context that you ask it in will make a great deal of difference to the outcomes.
You can get people to agree to anything, as long as you ask the question in the right way.

Yes and that was phrased in a perfectly normal way following questionaire design best practices.
Still 24% of people asked a neutral question about violence in response to a religious insult can justify it. Too high, so there's something wrong with British Islam. I'm not saying that Islam is wrong, or they don't have justifiable grievances with society, I am saying that everyone should look at this and go, "fuck" rather than ignoring it out of misplaced respect for their culture/religion.

Plenty of people from all walks of life have lines which if crossed they would feel violence was justifiable, governments, for example.
I personally have no misplaced respect for any religions and think that going "fuck" is often a perfectly valid response to all manner of abhorrent views.

You could easily find other groups that would give answers which you would think are morally shitty.

I know, I think the majority still believe in capital punishment.
That's logically irrelevant as it has no impact on this poll.

No direct impact, no, but it perhaps puts it in a perspective along the lines of "British Muslims probably as shitty as the general population"
