Our Brit brothers have gotten themselves in quite a pickle…
Police are working with universities to clamp down on “aggressive conversions” during which girls are beaten up and forced to abandon university courses.
...The Hindu Forum of Britain claims hundreds of mostly Sikh and Hindu girls have been intimidated by Muslim men who take them out on dates before terrorising them until they convert.
...[Meanwhile] Met police chiefs are to review a controversial stop-and-search power used in the fight against terrorism. ...concerns about the number of stops carried out in London using Section 44 legislation.
And yet:
Muslim schoolchildren should… have separate changing rooms for sports and swimming, single sex classes for sex education, prayer rooms and new rights to Islamic worship, and different uniform rules, the Muslim Council of Britain said.
...The call for special treatment for Muslim pupils comes at a time when Government efforts are concentrated on eliminating segregation and encouraging ‘British’ values to tackle religious extremism.
..."Unfortunately Muslim pupils are sometimes placed in situations where they feel pressured into acting contrary to their beliefs and conscience and also experience Islamophobic sentiments and comments within schools."
Don’t we all? I think that’s called ...um, Life.
And the Us/Them bickering is not just confined to the multi-culti set:
Business Secretary Lord Mandelson… is urging the Prime Minister to switch strategy in the New Year by making a keynote speech and co-ordinated announcements designed to reassure middle England that Labour is still on the side of wealth-creators and the aspirant lower-middle classes.
... Children’s Secretary Mr Balls is against the change, however, arguing that a slight narrowing of the Conservative poll lead in recent weeks is down to Mr Brown’s sharper attacks on class combined with spending and tax announcements that explicitly favour the poorest households over the rich.
The sun has long set and it’s nearing midnight.
