Honour Code

Two-thirds of young British Asians agree that families should live according to the concept of "honour", a poll for BBC Panorama suggests.

Of 500 young Asians questioned, 18% also felt that certain behaviour by women that could affect her family's honour justified physical punishment.

These included disobeying their father, and wanting to leave an existing or prearranged marriage.

The results come as women's groups call for action to stop "honour" crimes.

The poll, conducted for the BBC by ComRes, interviewed young Asians living in Britain between the ages of 16 and 34.

To qualify as Asian, interviewees had to identify themselves as being from one of the following communities: Mixed Asian; Indian; Pakistani; Bangladeshi; Other Asian.

Asked if they agreed that families should live according to "honour", 69% agreed, a figure that rose to 75% among young men, compared with 63% of young women.

The most striking thing in this report is that those questioned were aged between 16 and 34. Some serious ****ing headbangers kicking about.

You really are a one trick pony MD. You must just have about ten posts that you just copy and paste at random.

 

When you see the state of some of the chavvy slappers on the piss in most of our citys & towns you have to wonder if the Asian view makes sense.

 

It's bound in a script to one of my misc keyboard keys I'll have you know.

 

Oi, those chavvy pissed up slappers are easy and hence my favourite.
