Here is another evidence-based chart you won’t see elsewhere; it shows how much taxpayers are forced to give to Anjem Choudary – the extremist cleric who wants to lead a protest march through Wootton Bassett. He claims £25,740 in benefits to subsidise his hate preaching. Guido questions how he can be seeking work when he spends all his time rabble rousing in broadcast studios and on demonstrations. In contrast a frontline soldier, fighting Choudary’s taliban allies in Afghanistan, takes home £17,004 for risking his life. If that private is killed in combat, his widow and children would have to live on a pension less than Choudary gets.
Why are British taxpayers paying their enemies more than their soldiers? Is Choudary really actively seeking work? The evidence suggests he has other priorities – so stop his benefits…
If you build a parliament full of atheists, adulterers, fornicators, liars, cheats, greedy self serving swines, perverts and homosexuals, of course you are going to get crazy laws, immoral laws, amoral laws and laws that simply don't make sense. Is the above what we are? Are these the ones that truly represent us? I don't accept the argument that a politicians private life (ie regards any of the above topics) should not be revealed. All politicians should have to reveal these things about themselves and let voters decide if they have the right sort of character to represent us and our country.
ReplyDeleteOh, and of course from a Biblical point of view, we are the great satan and we should not be surprised that some groups (like some muslims) get very upset with us and we should not be surprised that some people (me included) want our country run by religious law. What about the totally unjustified slaughter of the unborn innocent to satisfy promiscuity and the selfish personal convieniance of women. If this is what we are fighting to uphold then we deserve destroying.
The real trajedy here is that parliament does not truely represent us. Stop worrying about what some idiot in a turban gets or says or does and start worrying about your own backyard. That is our country.
Fight for the right to really KNOW political candidates. Would you want a person to represent you that is a liar, a cheat, a homebreaker, who puts his/her personal gratification above his/her partner and children. Well that is a what an adulterer is. Now is it any wonder that the Muslims stone such people.
Give me a brick and let me throw the first one.
On a better note. It was great to see a group of Muslims on TV the other day in the USA carrying banners saying "We are Americans" "Terrorism is against Islam" "Not in our Name". We can't tar everyone with the same brush. I have known and do know quite a few muslims. My neighbours in Preston and Nelson were Muslims. They were friendly, hospitable, often funny and generous to a tee. I even used to baby sit the children in one home and they were great kids. Britian is full of Muslims that are British through and through. Remember many chose to come and live here. We didn't, we are here via accident of birth.
Sure there are bad ones, well sorry but that goes accross the board of every race and every creed.
I know we are getting a beating in Afghanistan because we are fighting a war with our hands behind our backs. There are only two ways to stop the Taliban, etc. One is genocide on the entire race and any race that harbours them and the other is training and aideing the national forces to fight back and that is what we are doing. We can't kill innocents. Otherwise what have we become? I couldn't live in a country that would turn on innocents.
I still have despite my comments about about parliament (which is fixable) pride in being British and in the right!
