And don't just say "all other religious schools should be also be closed", since I have not heard of any of the other's headteachers making such remarks.

/// The snap inspection was ordered by the Department for Education after reports that the headteacher had argued during a BBC radio discussion that homosexuality was punishable by death in an "ideal" Islamic state. Several other independent Muslim schools have also had recent snap inspections ordered by the department. ///

Or their libraries containing books on the stoning of women.

/// "Some books in the children's library contain fundamentalist Islamic beliefs (Salafi) or are set firmly within a Saudi Arabian socio-religious context. Some of the views promoted by these books, for example about stoning women, have no place in British society," the report argues. ///

Yes, and Islamic courts. There is no place in a democratic country for a religion that is so rigid that you cannot change your religion or even criticise it without the fear of death - (and neither can the indigenous Christians of this country). We are sadly well on the road to becoming an Islamic country.

That may or may not be true, but the reason religious organisations were mentioned was because reference of Christian missionaries in Africa was made by sp1814 whom I was answering.

If muslims want to solely fund schools that propagate a society that would be illegal under UK law then that is their privelege. There have to be consequences though such as prosecutions for encouraging law breaking.
