youre right the uk is an islamic country, you will be islamic soon, you british used to rule the world, but now you are bowing to islam.

[LatumWay]

@Ryanyarb24 And you would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling statistics!

[MrMrpeanut94]

I went to 2 faith schools and neither of these problems you described happend

[LatumWay]

@MrMrpeanut94 Well A. part of the problem is that some kids weren't admitted on the basis of religion. If you did get admitted, then obviously you weren't effected. 2. Part of this involves teachers not being hired or being sacked on religious grounds - again, this won't effect you. Thirdly - so because you didn't experience any problems that means no one did?

@Bloodlust392 Yes it is against the law to swear. A policeman can arrest you for it. I seen it happen.

[LatumWay]

@jackjohnwill Show me the law.

[LatumWay]

@SAEuropeanPatriot Don't make me fucking laugh. The UK has had two major Islamist terror attacks in recent years, one of who killed no one but the perpetrators.

We have had far, far more attacks and loss of life from Irish separatist groups like the IRA. If you look at all of europe, you'll see that the vast majority (and I'm talking up in the 90s percentage-wise) of attacks are from separatists, like the Basques and the Corsicans.

[LatumWay]

@SAEuropeanPatriot "Breivik was a zionist freemason and his attack was an inside job."

Right. End of discussion. You are insane.

[Dzastynas]

At least I know that Kazakhstan is Borat.

[velocityeleven]

"faith school" is an oxymoron

[ganados0]

Just what we need, some kook who can't do his job or fulfil promises playing the religion card and making a new breed of religitards bringing with them anti progress and superstitions.

@jackjohnwill Take your head out of your arse, it's not illegal.
