“There is no division”
I did chuckle reading his article about it in the Sunday Times.
There were moments when I thought he must have been reading yuour debate, and was addressing jorge personally.
glaring problem that is Islam.
In recent weeks I’ve heard two Radio 4 documentaries that have gone in pretty hard on the Allans and the Guardian now regularly cover these types of polls - though they do make great clickbait.
The race relations industry really f**king hates him.
I liked this bit: '78% said they would like to integrate into British life on most things apart from Islamic schooling and some laws'
Delivered with an entirely straight face
'MOST MUSLIMS FEEL CONNECTED TO GREAT BRITAIN', rather than the somewhat more shocking 'most muslims want to chuck faggots off tall buildings'.
well not exactly but
Half of all British Muslims think homosexuality should be illegal, poll finds
Unless I am getting a different headline. Also would have been more relevant in the piece to compare the views of muslims with those of other religious denominations rather than the "public at large". I should imagine with the exception of the church of England which is basically run by whoopsies, you would get significant closer results
I like the bit from the chair of the Muslim Women’s Network UK
Although any prejudice against gay people was unacceptable, the fact that nearly 50% of Muslims did not think homosexuality should be illegal was a sign that attitudes were shifting.
Nearly 1 in 2! Progress!
