Is that the best you can think of to contribute?

Democracy.
The rule of law.
Individual liberty.
Mutual respect.
Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs
Sounds fair too me.
btw, Richard, the date on your Telegraph article is "28 MARCH 2016" - the two later articles are just the SNP being a bit silly, and being denounced for their action by Muslim leaders.

The five British values you quoted sound fair enough to me too; it appears to be the phrase 'British values' itself that has been labelled as 'cultural supremism'.
