  1. Troops are going to be on our streets to protect us. Over the last 50 years the "right wing" have been warning that letting some of the most backward people into Europe was a bad idea. At every stage the "right wing" was shouted down and called "racist". Well folks, the "right wing" have been proved 100% correct.
  2. How can people not have hate when kids are getting killed? Or are you so politically correct you don't care? When you have a takeaway are you sure you're not supporting terrorism... The place where I stay had a corner shop worker go to fight for IS...
  3. Fair point, I could have phrased it better. However Christianity is all "turn the other cheek", "do onto others as you would have done onto you" and ""Christ died for our sins". Islam is a bit more violent towards non muslims... Everything IS does is sanctioned in the Koran and Hadiths.
  4. Did Thomas Mair kill in the name of Christianity? 20 people killed last night, many of them kids. They were killed because we have let a religion into europe that concentrates on killing non members. Until we can all accept that we will never come up with a solution.
  5. What's your point? The Harry Potter books have a lot of death in them as well. However, Europeans don't really read the Bible or the Harry Potter books and take inspiration to go on killing sprees. Muslims read the Koran and take inspiration to kill children at music concerts. 600 killed in Europe by islamic terrorists in the last two years. 0 killed by Christian terrorists. Yet people like bang on about Christian terrorism.
  6. Islamic State just want to kill Westerners and establish an Islamic caliphate. How do you negotiate with that? The Nazis were defeated by killing them. I would suggest a similar method of dealing with IS.
  7. The Bible doesn't have verse after verse telling Catholics to kill non Catholics. Catholics don't emigrate to other countries and start killing people.
  8. Mark, if someone prints a cartoon of Allah the entire Islamic world goes ballistic and there are protests everywhere, thousands take to the streets of London, hundreds of thousands protest in the likes of Asia. Yet after a terrorist attack there is virtually no condemnation. What does that tell you?
  9. Ohh, someone issued a pdf. That's brilliant proof that "mainstream Muslims" condemn terrorism. Tell you what Mark. Why don't you post some photographs of "mainstream Muslims" going on a protest march to condemn terrorism? If you cant find any does that not prove that "mainstream Muslims" don't really condemn terrorism? Until Muslim terrorism is discussed we're just going to get more and more terrorism deaths.
  10. I've boycotted Muslim businesses for the last 5 years. I no longer go to Muslim takeaway shops or corner shops. When I buy something on ebay I check that the vendor does not have an Islamic name. Until "mainstream Muslims" start condemning terrorist attacks carried out in the name of their religion I will make a point of not giving them money.
  11. We've had over ten years of terrorism in Europe. I'm fed up with being expected to "turn the other cheek" and being expected to get on with life. The time has come to stop Muslims migrating to the West and start locking the suspected extremists up.
  12. ^^ this. we need a "thanks" button on this site.
  13. A quisling (/ˈkwɪzlɪŋ/; Norwegian pronunciation: [ˈkʋɪsˈlɪŋ]) is a term originating from Norway, which is used in Scandinavian languages and in English for a person who collaborates with an enemy occupying force - or more generally as a synonym for traitor.[1][2][3] The word originates from the surname of the Norwegian war-time leader Vidkun Quisling, who headed a domestic Nazi collaborationist regime during the Second World War.
  14. I think we've all got to accept that extremist Islam is at war with the Secular West. I think the big question is if mainstream muslims will side with the extremists or the West... I have to admit I suspect this will be another incident where the mainstream muslim community do very little to condemn the attack.
  15. 19 dead in Manchester, 59 injured, probably thousands traumatised after seeing the fatalities. But yeah, we all know islam is a "religion of peace".
  16. According to Islam, Mohammed married Aisha when she was 6 or 7. The marriage was consummated when she was 9 or 10. Muslims consider Mohammed as the perfect man....
  17. Do you know what irony is? imho out of everyone on Arbtalk it's you that plays the "race/ racist" card the most.
  18. Do you ever read what you post before you press "submit"?
  19. I think you're seeing the tip of the iceberg and not the amount of effort that went into preparing the road widening scheme. Diverting utilities is a nightmare as it involves a lot of sitting round a table with each utility employee trying to defend their utility. Contractors have to spend ages getting utility diversions right because the results of getting it wrong are horrific. If someone dies due to negligence the directors of the Contractor could go to prison. I was working on a motorway at 4am. The Contractor was stripping topsoil from the central reservation of the motorway. Suddenly there was a "whoosh" as the excavator broke a gas valve that was in the central reservation. British Gas were called out and the leak was fixed at about 8am. The Contractor had to pay a fine of £35k for each lane that was not open to the public for each half hour after 6am. ie the Contractor paid a fine of £280k because he broke a valve that was not on any as built drawing...
  20. Well obviously the left wing members of the Labour Party love him. However most people would consider him a liability as a Prime Minister. Corbyn belongs back in the 1970s where his bolshie "I can't get a train seat despite there being dozens of train seats free" attitude belongs. It says a lot about you that you consider him "electable".
  21. Wow! A link to some blog from one of your left wing mates, that's really going to make people vote Labour! Labour bust the country the last time they were in power. If Jeremy got into power he'd bust the country again. You've just got to accept that Labour under Jeremy are unelectable. Forget this general election and concentrate on the next one....
  22. If labour can lose by elections after 7 years of Tory austerity rule it's unlikely that Jeremy will be moving into Downing Street.... The naivety on this thread is strong.
  23. I work with 4 self employed people. I know two employ their wife's in the business.. I never asked the other two if they employ their wife's... I don't know your financial or life story. However you could potentially employ your wife and have a higher family income.
  24. I certainly know a couple of people at work that "employ" their wife through their business. I'm not saying it's right, however it's certainly one way to reduce the tax/ NI a family pay.
  25. I think most self employed people employ their wife. So it realistically means they pay very little NI/ income tax.
