Islamophobia comes to Town

It’s plainly rife where I live. And where was this pernicious article published?

AN anti-Islamic article aiming to "liven up" a church magazine has sparked outrage after it branded the religion a "threat".

Who is this shadowy group attacking Muslims in the street?

The 80-year-old divorcee claimed in her column for the St John's Church publication that young Christian schoolchildren were being brainwashed with Islamic ideology.

Mind you, I’d like to read what she originally wrote before the censorship kicked in.

Both magazine editor Nick Hawkins – who admitted toning down the original submission because it was "too extreme" – and the Reverend John Chandler this week defended the piece, which was sent out to all homes in Hildenborough.

And the usual from the professionally offended:

But residents and the West Kent Muslim Association (WKMA) have called it "unacceptable" and "harmful to the community".

Well mateys. I’m a resident and I’m not in the slightest bit offended.

And of course a politician has to jump on the publicity bandwagon. It’s all so predictable.

Tonbridge Green Party's Steve Dawe said he hoped the article – which sits alongside more benign offerings about coffee mornings and whist drives – was a one-off.

And on a final note.

Mrs Clark, of Bramble Close, said she stood by her views, saying: "This used to be a Christian country."

Good for you Mrs Clark.

If you want to see what she wrote there is a transcript in the comments following the article In Thisiskent.

UPDATE:

of course there is always one of the Righteous in the comments.

I think this piece in the Hildenborough parish magazine was a step too far but was probably written by someone whose understanding of Islam is limited to what she sees and hears in the British media. I'm not surprised that the Editor of the magazine and the local vicar defended the article, as the Christian community in Hildenborough is quite evangelical in its make up, However, if the Editor wants to liven things up then he must be prepared to publish balancing articles which may in turn cause offence to the Christian community. Personally I am an atheist and don't have a lot of time for any particular religion but I respect people's beliefs and would expect them to respect mine. Christianity is meant to be a tolerant religion and the article in question does nothing to promote that. I suspect that what Mrs Clark is actually afraid of is extremism and what she has to realise is that extremism in any religion is a destructive force. I think the Editor of Keys should print some form of disclaimer, retraction or apology for this article, if not then I would support Steve Dawe in his suggestion that this should be a matter for the Equality and Human Rights Commission.

Nudge Nudge wink wink.

Look you Fucktards in the Coalition. I don’t want to be nudged by a shower of wankers pretending to know what they’re talking about. As far as I’m concerned the majority of politicians have never held down a job in the real world, but just live in Lala land, and spout their illiberal claptrap. You are elected by, we the people, to do our bidding as we see fit and not to be our rulers.

Tunisia may be the start that quite a few of us see coming in the future, as your control is broken when the masses of the British population wake up and realise the slavery that you are attempting to deliver on us. (My God. I’m sounding like a left wing reactionary here).

If I want to smoke, drink, eat fatty foods, and all the other enjoyable pastimes, that at least makes my life palatable. ITS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

Freedom in a truly democratic society, is to allow the individual to make choices as long as it doesn’t conflict with others’ choices.

I don’t want to hear your wailing that the NHS can’t cope, whilst you throw money at India in development aid. FFS, it’s got a space programme. We haven’t, so why throw money into an emerging economy that will outstrip ours in the next few years.

Why are you allowing that ecoloone  Huhne spunk away billions on useless wind turbines that don’t deliver 30% of their rated  capacity at the best, and actually cost us more when the winds don’t blow?

Why are we bailing out the Eurozone when we are not even it, and the majority of the population want out of the EU anyway?

I do not want to be nudged into accepting that the so called consultation exercises will change anything. We’ve seen the spin after Clegg equated  repealing the death penalty, with the smoking ban.

I don’t want to be nudged into anything.  I would hope to nudge my elbow sharply into the Adam’s apple of the state ensuring that it dies an extremely slow and painful death.

Don’t say….. What’s happened to Global warming?

When the leaflet drops onto your mat. make sure you read it.

This is an official Government warning on behalf of the Green party and the University of  East Anglia.

In the shadows

acpo

I’ve just been reading an article in the Guardian(Shock, Horror) about that shadowy body called ACPO. For those that don’t know, this stands for Association Of Chief Police Officers.

Now most people would think that it would be a good thing for all those nice Senior Police Officers, to get together to discuss strategy in the war against crime.

But what do you know about them? I suspect not very much.

Fact one.

Acpo was once a liaison group. But, like all bureaucracies, it has grown. It now runs its own police forces under a police chief boss, Sir Hugh Orde, like a British FBI.

Fact Two.

It is self financing. It trades on its own account, generating revenue by selling data from the police national computer for £70 an item (cost of retrieval, 60p).

and

It owns an estate of 80 flats in central London.

and

Operating a separate private firm offering training to speed-camera operators, which is run by a senior officer who was banned from driving.

Having just assisted my daughter to buy a flat in London, I know that they’re not cheap. My estimate of that “little investment” in monetary terms is a value of at least £20,000,000. That’s my lowest estimate. Other sources indicate the figure could be as high as £32,000,000.

What do they need all that money for?

Fact Three.

As a private company, Acpo need not accede to Freedom of Information requests (Section 32 of the FOIA. Law Enforcement) and presumably could distribute its profit to its own board.

Maybe that’s the answer to my question about Fact two. But then one of their basic principles stated in their own code of ethics reads.

Holders of public office should take decisions solely in terms of the public interest. They should not do so in order to gain financial or other material benefits for themselves, their family, or their friends.

Which can be downloaded HERE and their structure can be seen HERE

Should we not be a tad scared that a few senior Police Officers wield so much power with so little accountability? 

Questions I would like answered are:

Why does this body need to make so much money if it is only a discussion group of CPOs?

Why is it allowed to sell data from the Police national computer?

The article where I sourced this material can be read in the Guardian . The article is about Mark Stone, the Police Infiltrator that went native.

We’re all doomed I say.

And I’m not talking about Global warming here.

Wait a Mo while I put my tinfoil hat on.

tinfoil

Ok now that’s done, I shall begin.

You remember all those stories in the press in the last week of birds falling out of the sky? Well here’s the reason apparently.

Because the Earth's magnetic poles are shifting!

Last week, a report from the Russia's Ministry for Extraordinary Situations (MCHS) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minist...) warned that the weakening Earth magnetosphere was allowing "poisonous space clouds" to enter deep into Earth's atmosphere where it is coming into contact with birds.

And further on in the article this came from:

The most likely explanation is that the birds were killed in-flight by changes in the composition of the air they were breathing. And as it turns out, Noctilucent clouds are largely made of a poisonous gas known as Hydrogen Cyanide. For all you chemists reading this, as the EUtimes.net website explains:

Hydrogen Cyanide is also formed in interstellar clouds through one of two major pathways: via a neutral-neutral reaction (CH2 + N -> HCN + H) and via dissociative recombination (HCNH+ + e- -> HCN + H). The dissociative recombination pathway is dominant by 30%; however, the HCNH+ must be in its linear form. Dissociative recombination with its structural isomer, H2NC+ produces hydrogen isocyanide (HNC), exclusively. (http://www.eutimes.net/2011/01/pois...)

And of course if you believe that…………………….

And you wonder why the crime rate is high?

filler cap

A police force had to spend thousands of pounds fixing vehicles after officers put petrol in diesel cars — despite “talking” fuel caps warning them not to.

Officers from Essex Police used the wrong fuel 332 times in the past seven years at a cost of £62,000.

Figures disclosed by a Freedom of Information Request show that police chiefs were first alerted to the problem in 2008. They decided to take action by installing yellow fuel caps and a warning system on each car at a total cost of £4,000.

But despite the precaution, diesel police cars were wrongly filled with petrol 110 times in the following two years.

Filler caps at £4,000 a car! Why couldn’t they’ve  just written above the filler in felt tip?
