    Iain Duncan Smith is a Spurs fan.

    It somehow never occurred to him to help us out with the new stadium, though...

    Which one's Scottish, Iain or Duncan?

    ...if there was ever the need of evidence that Paul Merton has phoned-in HIGNFY for years, he used that exact joke for three series.

    JK Rowling has been Scotchified.
    Her extremely deep wallet is now unable to be opened to contribute to new WHL.

    I still don't understand what will happen if it's yes. The SNP and Labour are both centre left with the same policies more or less so how will they oppose each other if they are the same?

    Most likely the SNP will split into two factions, one centre left and one quite ridiculously hardline right.

    Is it considered racist if I put that Asians aided the rape of 1400 girls in Rotherham yet nobody seems to care? No Muslims are demonstrating against it or their leaders speaking out. More is written about Scottish independence or lorry drivers bringing in illegals from Calais. Muslim grooming gangs targeting English children yet if the English speak up about it then they are considered racists but nobody speaks about the subject only those who broach said subject.

    Is it alright in people's minds that our identity is being eroded and our PM being threatened with decapitation? Does all this make me a racist? Will people criticize me and not post opinions about the subject? 500 British go to fight in Syria so the USA considers us a haven for Muslim terrorists and these are our closest allies. Only a handful have gone from the US.

    Is it alright for banners to say "Behead anybody who insults Islam" on the streets of England? Because of Islam there's now a heightened state of a terrorist attack in England and yet who in England seems to care? If somebody does they're branded a racist.

    I take your points. However, I believe it is for the millions of normal Muslims to stand up and denounce these thugs and murderers. Let's not try to dignify them by calling them radicals, or even fundamentalists. They are thugs and murderers, pure and simple.

    However, until the most senior and respected members of the Muslim community stand up make it clear that these people don't represent true Islam, it will never stop.

    Blaming Islam or Muslims as a whole for terrorism or *****philia is like blaming Christianity for the IRA or Catholic priests abusing kids.

    They'll change their policies to suit you mean Spurf?

    PNP, I don't see any Christians doing any bombing and Catholics who abuse children are punished. As Spain points out about Muslim leaders denouncing it will continue, but do you hear them denouncing it? No. Why not? Because the leaders want Sharia law for the UK and so to them it's right what's happening. Also don't forget that the silent majority are irrelevant because they are silent.

    No Christian terrorists? How about the IRA or UVF? The Ku Klux Klan are another obvious example.
    The various anti-abortion killings in America or Anders Breivik's Norwegian massacre would be others.

    The Catholic priests' abuse of children explicitly wasn't punished for decades. Quite the opposite, in fact. The church itself covered up the abuse.
    Those that were caught committing their disgusting actions were moved elsewhere and allowed to start anew, spreading the horror to a new group of kids.
    Victims were threatened with all manner of things and compensation has only been paid out very recently for cases that go back decades.

    Muslim leaders condemn terrorism constantly. It happens every time that there's an attack.
    The reporting of it is very low key, though. So much so that most people don't even notice it.
    Some pillock like Anjem Choudary, who holds no such position of respect or power, gets interviewed on Newsnight and Fox, though.

    IRA was political as the UDA and the UVF not religious, religion was just a guise. The IRA wanted a united Ireland and had no intentions on mainland UK or to change our religion, laws or freedom as the Islamists do.

    The IS want a United Syria & Iraq ( their Caliphate) both have used the same terror tactics to try and achieve their aims. Murder, bombings, threats, etc. To me, they're all the same. Murderous, violent, psychopathic scum!
