Diversity: British Government to Observe Religious Practice

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Thursday, August 28. 2008 12:56
... and if you thought this means that they were going to be celebrating Christmas this year, you've got another thing coming.

Muslim council leaders have sparked outrage after trying to ban all councillors eating in meetings until sunset during the holy month of Ramadan.

Politicians have hit out after the move to impose hardline Islamic rules on non-Muslim colleagues throughout September.

The bombshell has been dropped by Labour chiefs of the notoriously loony Tower Hamlets Council in east London.


Not to pick nits or anything, but I am reminded that the United Kingdom does in fact have an official State religion, regardless of the fact that the short-sighted buffoons of the Labour Party have unofficially outlawed it.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Don't see anything wrong here. Official state religion is Sha'ria right?

These council members who will refuse this multicultural expression of freedom will be appropriately labeled as RACISTS, bigots, Hate-Mongers, and mean.

There is no reason to not acquiesce to the appropriate requests made by a small subtle minority that represents a peaceful section of the native population.

*[i]But in his email, John Williams, the council's head of democratic services, said: 'It is requested that members do not partake of any refreshments until after the Iftar refreshments are served.'

'Freedom of belief is an important human right,...[i]

ummmm...No, its not. If you would recall you dhimmi, one reason why we who formed USA left Great Britain was because we wanted to be free to worship as we chose. That "RIGHT" was not guaranteed by England's laws and rulings. Almost all of the Muslim countries do not have freedom of (and from) religion clause like the USA has.
