We haven’t had a GE since, so as current as it can be. Starmer? No, but I would expect that there is still plenty in the Labour Party.

Looking back it also seems that saying “Free Palestine” & “Have a blessed day” on the tube now mean you’re spreading hate. Well, according to Laurence Fox. Must be exhausting to believe all this shite. Grown men living in constant fear over teddies & hijabs. Laurence Fox is deranged, but surely nobody wants/needs their train drivers offering political opinions over the tannoy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re orthodox lads running a plumbing business and 99% of their customers are the Jewish community. To say they have a high opinion of their own business credentials would be an understatement. I had 4 of them surrounding me in a little office once, all telling me I needed to drop my prices so they increase their sales across manchester. I told them no problem, increase orders from 10 a month to 250 and off we go. They couldn’t usher me out of the place quick enough after that. Nice enough bunch, but Jewish opticians must surely be some of the wealthiest people in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 3 hours ago, Not in Crawley said: It does though. It can mean the struggle within oneself for betterment - the greater Jihad and there is the lesser Jihad. The contemporary reading of Jihad has really no basis in Islamic teaching ie that of a 'Holy War' - it literally means 'struggle' (and is mainly the stugglew within (that is the greater Jihad) but the contemporary reading has been taken by many (Muslims included) to mean war and only that. So, as the police have to investigate, they also have to investigate it's meaning and context - as you can't just lock someone up for shouting a word unless that is relating to racial hatred. And any decent lawyer would point out the different meaning, despite what populist rhetoric the home secretary is coming out with. This isn't a defence of using would could be racially sensenstive at a time of highened tensions. Its just explaining why the police have a job to do, and that pushing this sort of discourse doesn't help. The police know exactly what the context was, any other section of the general public would have been jumped all over. utterly pathetic police force.
