    great charity work well done, as a person apart from your good deeds, you really need to stop being so bullish like if you don't agree with you no matter how many times your proved wrong your right but only in your mind.

    thank you, I’m right until I’m proven wrong. As a man I can accept if I have it incorrect. In this instance I shall await this evidence

    I agree entirely Smug, some terrible atrocities are carried out throughout the world, many in the name of religion.

    WTF happens to the donations for 'underage marriages' anyway, does it stop them?

    And, while we're poking our nose into other people's cultures why aren't we attacking Germany's legal age of consent at 14 years ... why aren't we demanding some of the United States set a minimum age of marriage when it's legal to marry at 12 years old?

    Do we believe the UK's standards should be enforced around the world, has the British Empire kicked off again. If we're so wise how come we have one of the worst records of teenage pregnancies in Europe, possibly the worst.

    "In 10 states there is no set minimum age by statute, the traditional common law minimum age is 14 for boys and 12 for girls - ages which have been confirmed by case law in some states."

    Hi mate I like the bit where you say check the web sites it’s really worth doing and the brochures they send out I’ve always donated to Oxfam and the Red Cross one of the latest brochures says now you can see where your money is going donate £2 and this child ( picture of a child ) will have pen and paper for school and you will be sponsoring her, £5 will get her new books and then £10 etc etc and I’m thinking that’s nice be able to see how she’s getting on, and then you read the small print tiny writing bottom of back cover, we will decide where your donated money goes , you won’t because you aren’t getting any <ok>

    Why are the RNLI funding burkinis?

    The Panje Project teaches women swim survival skills in Zanzibar. The burkini, which is a full length swim suit is an innovative (and cheap) way of enabling girls in strict Muslim countries, to get into the water without compromising their cultural and religious beliefs.The RNLI have been involved in the Panje Project with the majority of the RNLI’s involvement funded by a donor who specifically wanted the money to go towards this project.

    there you go mate, taken from the link in previous post.
    £20 to the Bradley Lowry foundation will do for me

    bollocks Zanzibar is part of Tanzania as all former colonies like Kenya they speak English and Swahili, THEY ARE A CHRISTIAN country, if you want a muslim country go further up the coast to Somalia, and see how the charities operate there, oh they dont thats right as charities as **** scared of operating there i wonder why, surely it's not because they are muslim and think the world owes them a living if they can't steal one.

    fella, you keep saying I have said something which I haven’t, there’s only one person that’s hard work here.
    You are quoting the RNLI press release, now, semantics aside the archipelago which is Zanzibar is predominantly Muslim. Whether you agree or not.
    Now, it’s probably best you pipe down now, making an arse of yourself seems to be an ongoing excitement for you.
    P.s. believe it or not I don’t anyone at the station cares if they are popular or not so long as they can do their role but for the record I seem to be quite a popular chap xx

    "... regarded as a highly offensive racial slur which recalls a time when casual racism was a part of everyday life."
