in among all the problems we think we have there sometimes comes a reminder to "count your blessings".

[Mamyalynne]

Very courageous and of course you are right, we are lucky to have the freedom to express who we are and in general will be left to live our lives as we see fit.

Very brave man indeed.

Very brave, but he would be ill advised to come here as it is only a matter of time before Sharia Courts are recognised in the UK. (Otherwise we would be racists if we didnt allow them).

[hc4361]

Sigh

[ToraToraTora]

well we may have a chance without the European court of yuman rites YMB.

[hc4361]

We are still a member of the ECHR. That has nothing to do with EU membership

// but he would be ill advised to come here as it is only a matter of time before Sharia Courts are recognised in the UK. //

no YMF we changed the record as "we" have voted for Brexit and all the paradise options ( full employment, free trade, being part of the bits of EU we like ) that entails

so he would be welcome here even tho there is a promise to repeal 3T's beloved ooman rights act, and replace it with a bill of British Freedoms which will of course have FEWER freedoms than the Act ( or else there would be no need to repeal it )

roll on Brexit - I can hardly wait !

hc - st teresa has come out with a promise to jettison the ECHR
( real heavy sigh )

[in fact that would come with repealing the Human RIghts Act wouldnt it ? ]

[hc4361]

PP, Theresa has backtracked and said we won't be withdrawing from the ECHR
