It sometimes seems (to me) that the biggest stumbling block on the path to Racial Equality in this country is the Commission for Racial Equality.

Re: Segregation in the UK?

I couldn't work out what Trevor Phillips is trying to say. Have seen different write ups of his report on various News Sites which were all slightly different but were mostly the same stating he says white schools should be made to take in more pupils from ethnic backgrounds, and I started to think it was timed to coincide with the meeting the government had the other day with leaders and business people about how to sort this extremism out amongst the british muslims, then I spotted this:-

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...0&in_a_source=

A section that stands out is this:-

His most powerful warnings were directed at the education system, in which Muslims are particularly anxious to establish more Islamic faith schools.
-----------------------------------
If you read down the report, it has really upset the MCB.

When you think about it, he is right, a faith schools do breed segregation and prevent proper integration, but can you see an english christian being allowed into a muslim faith school, I don't think so.

Re: Segregation in the UK?

A couple more interesting links from Yesterday's Sunday Times:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...796280,00.html

This one highlights some of the issues involved with arranged marriages.

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspap...796407,00.html

This one focuse on Cat Stevens and his proposed new album. The article seems to imply that his Islamic views are softening a little. However, the quote from one Muslim leader is initially quite amusing; but when it sinks in, you can see what a hardline approach this man has. It made me wonder if that is typical or atypical of Muslim thinking?

Quote:

Sheikh Ibrahim Mogra, chairman of the Muslim Council of Britainââ‚à ‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s mosque and community affairs committee, conceded some scholars would admire Islam for reaching out to the wider world with his message of peace but said: †œMy personal view is the only music that should be permitted is the voice and the drum. I do not believe the electric guitar is acceptable for Muslims. Contemporary music has many associations with dance, nudity and taking drugs, which is not allowed.ââ‚à ƒ‚¬Ã‚
