Ramrod no offence but i can't help feeling your blowing this way way out of proportion and taking at face value an at best highly dubious source as being true without an agenda something that source has yet to manage.

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

I do, and will continue to, treat ANYTHING from a BNP source with utter contempt.

Um, countries lead by muslims aren't usually known for their tolerant attitudes to democracy, other faiths, free speech.......

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Do you feel that way about Disraeli (who was Jewish), or Michael Howard (who could have been PM), or Tony Blair, who became Catholic? Why would having a Muslim PM be such a bad thing?


You asked him to comment on a hypothetical statement

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

As a knee jerk reaction, I tend to agree with you. That might sometimes not be fair though....

The voting record described on that site seems at odds with what he said on that video......:scratch:

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

But it isn't real, and that's the point - you are (imho) conflating a piece of propaganda into something that it isn't.

Here (again) is the actual speech Linkylinklink - he makes a joke about it.

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Sorry if it seems I'm blowing it out of proportion. I'm just amazed that no on wants to actually comment on what was said in that video (it may be for real), just sweep it under the carpet by rubbishing the source....

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

I tend to look at people as individuals... not by their faith, creed, colour or class or choice of avatar etc

If a person who became PM happened to be a muslim, he would have been put their by a process of democracy, the same way that he/she would be removed. We would not suddenly become a satellite muslim state.

God forbid we ever have a RC Prime Minister lest he immediately cedes us with the Vatican.:erm:

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

But what he said was he would like 20 Muslim MPs (in proportion with the Muslim % of the UK population), and he hoped there would be a Muslim PM in his lifetime - not exactly the "Islamification of the UK", is it?

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Indeed and in the rest of the UK too.

He wants the PM to share his faith. So what?

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Or a disabled or gay PM, then he/she would make us all disabled and or gay....:dozey:

Strangely enough, on that note, when Maggy was PM, we didn't all become women. :D

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Hmmm....the sound is out of sync with the video.....could be anyone saying those words. I hope to hell it is simply a stitch up attempt......like you lot are saying.
I posted this thread in the hope someone here could pull a snopes type link out of the net to demonstrate it's falsehood or veracity.
Maby someone will.....:)

Don't be silly, disabled or gay people don't have several organisations devoted to those aims :dozey:

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

Also because, as foreverwar pointed out, he was making a joke. So the source presented it as they wanted people to see it. So the context is not for real so what is the point on commenting on it?

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

....and the rest of the cabinet. Tell me Russ, how many countries run by muslims allow christian churches on their soil?

Re: Labour MP Predicts Total Islamification of Britain
 

I looked at the official conference site for a video of his speech.
