.. if you don't like it leave' says Trevor Phillips
I am I the only one who thinks the man's a joke. He's either deciding everyone is institutionally racist or that as he doesn't like their views they should fuck off.
I'm not always in favour of some of our laws - should I fuck off as well. Or does it only cover Moslems?

Anybody who lives here has to accept that's the way we do it. If you want to have laws decided in another way, you have to live somewhere else," he said.

This made me giggle -
Anyone who has asked the tax man questions, or had a disagreement with the local rozzers will tell you that the government only operates through violence and intimidation.
Fucking moron. theres no "here" to run away from, for a start. What uk?
So you don't have a right to complain if you are foreign? wtf? What an arse.
I want to leave anyway, so it don't affect me!
Perhaps its Trevor Phillips who doesn't support the culture of this country and he should fuck off.
doesn't sound like it to me. Sounds to me like he is taking a stand, good for him.
Aye, go on then.
As you might expect, I am a little......different but that will just mean we have more fun.
Oh I use it. Just for me it's optional.
Ace! I can't wait to meet you! Plonk yer name on the list in the thread... :thumb: Tops!
!!
Remember the old addage, "when in Rome ....." , it should be the same for people coming to our country, they should by & large accept our culture and way of life, if not stay away. Try going to Saudi Arabia and wearing a crucifix in public, or suggesting that a church be built, walking down the street swigging from a bottle of beer, or allowing your girl-friend to wear Western fashion and drive round in a car - the Religious Police would pounce before you could blink!
We're going to be a very unpopulated country then.
Hell, I couldn’t be happier if the U.S. were hated by a large section of the world, long as it was for reasons like why Denmark is hated.
For publishing racist cartoons?
The point stands that people within the UK have a perfect right to demand Sharia law. If they've been born and brought here (as many have) they have as much a right to argue about how we make our laws and what they are as I have (or Trevor Philips).
Countries are also evolving organisms. I'm sure several hundred years ago most brits would have favoured slavery. We've moved on from that. But in several hundred years in the future we may believe Sharia law is the way to go and people should have the perfect right to say so - without the head of the CRE telling them to go somewhere else.
The point is that they never will have the right to impose it upon me or anyone else. Ever.
Fictional boundaries don't allow you to impose your ideals upon me or anyone else.
As long as you let me do what the hell I want without harming anyone, you can go do what the fuck you want, without harming anyone.
Yup. You are free to demand all you want, dont mean you'll get it.
No body is arguing that they don't have the right to it. After all, freedom of speech is one of those core principles I keep spouting off about. They have the right to petition for Sharia law. The point that he is trying to make is that it isn't going to happen because it goes against the social-political values of the UK, and that if they want it so bad it'd be best for them to move somewhere where it's already in place.
Oi. You don't agree with the current government or some of the laws they are passing. Gerrout! Traitor!
Can we throw out Catholics too? They are allied to the Pope before the Monarch. Traitors!
He's going to be speaking in Gloucester, incidentally, at the Gloucester Racial Equality Council's AGM on June 8th.
what did he say then?
or is it specific laws that warrants being thrown out of or leaving the UK?
and who decides this? the oh so mighty trustworthy government?
you cant have double standards in the law and how it is treated, otherwise it leads to huge abuse
So that's anyone who supports PR, wants to get rid of the Queen and wants a democratically elected House of Lords on the next boat out...
Whilst personally I think getting rid of PR supporters is a good thing (especially if the boat's leaky) a fundamental point of a democracy is not only being able to express your opinion on the laws being made, but how they're made.
Slightly off topic - but I'm not convinced that PR is a more democratic or accountable system than ftp
It would mean that the Lib dems are in Govt forvever with a choice between Foreign Secretary under the Tories and Chancellor under Labour.
