Darwin married his cousin, maybe he fancied his chances?

Was you watching that Darwin movie last night? I was watching that movie, and tbf if my cousin was Jennifer Connelly, I would’ve banged her too.

One of the curious things about Cameron’s argument is that he reckons that Muslim women who don’t speak English are in more danger of being radicalised. This seems very odd to me. Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t most of the people who’ve been radicalised (by which, I presume, he means heading of to join ISIS/Daesh or planning on committing acts of terror in Europe) actually young men who have English as a first language? And if they are women, aren’t they relatively young women who have been educated here and are fluent English speakers? [insert confuzzled emoticon here]

There are other problems with his statement as well. He claims that 22% of muslim women ā€œhave no or little Englishā€. Well, that isn’t the statistic I’ve heard. There was an academic talking about it on the radio who 1) rightly pointed out that the definition of speaking English is a slippery one and 2) based on her research thought the figure was closer to 6%.

I’m sure that most muslim women would be able to muster a ā€˜wtf?’ in English when responding to dodgy assertions from a bloke who fucks dead pigs.

Even Kissinger couldn’t achieve Muslim women to accept this great British tradition of pig fucking.

Wrote a lengthier post on this yesterday, that seems not to have posted.

I don’t like this.

  1. I’d love to know what percentage of our own would fail these tests. I’d imagine it’s embarassingly high.

  2. As has been said above. If the reason being used is to counter extremism, it’s patently bollocks. As has been said above. If it is these women in danger of extremism, why is it none of them that are involved?

  3. I get the desire to want people to integrate and learn the language. It would of course help to increase societal cohesion. Furthermore, it’s just got to provide a better quality of life for the people involved. I feel like you must be missing out of so much of life not having even a basic grasp of the language. I don’t really think that is grounds to start booting people out of the country.

  4. The irony of a uber-rich white toff telling people to stop only associating and communicating with people exactly like themselves, whilst doing so himself isn’t fucking lost on me. He fills his cabinet with his fellow fucking etonians for christ sake. Hypocritical cunt.

  5. Doubt it will actually come to pass. It’s just a pacifier for the right of his party & the frothing mouthed xenophobic cunts clad in purple.

This language thing is a guise, as I say its a softly softly approach to the fact most women in these communities are shut off and are not heard let alone understood, most Pakistani’s and Bangeldeshi’s have come from very very poor uneducated backgrounds and they remain close and loyal to their own families and tribal lines over the state/institutions and customs we have here and this is where problems lie as it is not what we are used to at all.

How can you get social cohesion when one part of the community don’t want to be part of the main one and vice versa?
Parallel lives.

Who do you hate the most Barry, the EU or the muslims? I think it is dangerous to fight a war on two fronts so should just target one for now and move on to the other later.

Pahahaha I don’t hate anyone, now the question is do I hate religion and undemocratic Unions?

That’s the question young padawan, not the person at all, ever, the system.

Come on Baz, Merkle or Mustapha which do we tackle first?

Who the hell is Merkle?
We shouldn’t tackle anyone, we should challenge discrimination, homophobia, sexism, racism and undemocratic bodies at every opportunity and not when it culturally sensitive or not convenient to do so, I hope you agree and tackling is very old school and hardly diplomatic young padawan.

Too many ands there Barry, it went a bit Vicky Pollard.

ā€œI hope you agree and tackling is very old school and hardly diplomatic young padawan.ā€

No idea, can I call a friend/translator?

Can you provide prrof of this claim, please Barry?

This one too.

On what part and I’ll be happy to, that Pakistani’s and Bangledeshi’s that came over in the main in the 60 and 70’s were blue collar workers or Cameron’s statement?
