The idea of linking Muslim communities to “hate preaching” or “honour killings” without any evidence just adds to negative, unfounded stereotypes.

Or try this one, the poor girl was only 10 years old and got beaten to death by her family the ones that are supposed to protect her
Calling 999 (911 US) he claimed he had "legally punished her" and told the operator "I beat her up, it wasn't my intention to kill her, but I beat her up too much"

Is that enough evidence?

 As a Farang Thai, living in Chaam, I am happy that farang can have their own little communities, I even accept the criminal gangs such as the Bandidos motorcycle club.  I love going down certain sois for my English Breakfast, Swedish bread, German beer etc. I enjoyed my kebabs and samosas on a recent trip to East London; never like those jellied eels. East London is great now, not like back when the Krays were throwing their weight around. 

Your lame attempt at drawing an equivalence to how E London was when the Krays were around and how it is now is pure fantasy. What part of East London did you go to and for how long?

I think that is a step too far but we should be doing a lot more to welcome them and help them where we can.

Having riots and continually complaining about them is not going to make them warm to us.

 

i have been living in Thailand now for a while and so many thai people have helped me out and as a result I feel very warmly towards Thailand and the lovely Thai people.

Obviously your thoughts are on a par with those individuals in the Home Office who describe the rape of young white girls as ALLEGED victims even when the courts verdicts are well documented.

I think most of the riots in the UK have been to do with a feeling that authorities have singled out minority communities rather than riot about them being in the UK, defeats the object of your post.

As for warming to us, when they get off the Dinghy's do we give them nice blankets, some food, money and a nice place to live?  (and more recently let their families come over while they sort their fake Asylum out as 30 years olds pretending to be 15 so Social services will take care of them?)

Quite simply the Australians are way ahead of any country on illegal immigration, fire warning shots at the immigrant boats (I am not saying shoot people) as a deterrent.  Trump has hinted at similar actions, but all of us will be long gone before the UK would dream of such a tactic it would be 'black'listed to even discuss anything like that with the many thousands of forbidden words in the UK, Europe wouldn't do it because once they leave France are no longer Europe's problem (Conspiracy theory 😂 I reckon a portion of the money the UK gives to France to prevent illegal immigration is probably going on purchasing more stable Dinghy's to ensure they make it out of French Sovereign water safely)

Here’s your statement again:

This comment distills the very essence of the deflective and disingenuous way in which you comment on this forum; rather than opine about the practices of these Sharia councils in the UK, you simply say they are not against UK law, although they have no legal jurisdiction whatsoever in the UK; the practices they promote and oversee, such as the female genital mutilation of children, the marriage of 13 year old (and younger) girls to old men, honour killings, divorce settlements, bigamy (men allowed 3 wives) and the persecution of gays, are all against UK law.

 

Do you approve of these practices ? because you seem to support the existence of Sharia courts in the UK, but refuse to make any comment about their practices.

 

 

 

 

I have asked you to provide evidence to back your claim on this particular point:

 

“Sharia councils in the UK, you simply say they are not against UK law, although they have no legal jurisdiction whatsoever in the UK; practices they promote and oversee, such as the female genital mutilation of children”

 

Please provide evidence to back the very serious allegation you made, refer underlined text above.

 

Female genital mutilation is outlawed in the UK, if you have evidence that Sharia courts/councils in the UK are promoting and overseeing this heinous crime why are you not presenting your evidence, further more why have you not submitting it to the authorities?

It may well be illegal but hundreds per month on females are carried out, NHS even keeps its own monthly data set on them all

 

UK communities that are most at risk of FGM include Kenyan, Somali, Sudanese, Sierra Leonean, Egyptian, Nigerian and Eritrean. Non-African communities that practise FGM include Yemeni, Afghani, Kurdish, Indonesian and Pakistani.

I think they like their religion and culture, but they're very much aware that the UK is a better place to be.  Probably a mixture of economics and culture, while still wishing to live within their culture in a bubble form.

Most muslims in the UK are not employed, very few woman. The topic is about migrants in the UK, not migrants in Thailand or their opinions of it.

 

It has gone down from this last office of national statistics report

 

• In 2021, people who identified as "Muslim" had the lowest percentage of people aged 16 to 64 years in employment (51.4% compared with 70.9% of the overall population); 

51.4% is most.

Trump won with that.

Female genital mutilation is outlawed in the UK

 

 

FGM has been illegal in the UK since 1985, and therefore rather obviously, procedures are either clandestine within the UK, or the victims are sent abroad for the mutilation. The NHS started collecting statistics in 2015 and they have reported a total of 37,615 individual women (and girls) having undergone the procedure.

 

Because of the secretive nature of these procedures it has been very difficult for the CPS to bring prosecutions or convictions. However, in the insular muslim communities in the UK, absolutely nothing is done without the knowledge of, and approval of, the Sharia council (if that community has one) or otherwise the Imam of their mosque.

 

Most people, both muslim and otherwise, that live in the UK know this; which because you don’t live in the UK is probably why you are absolutely clueless about it.

 

It is obvious that your myopic defence of Islam and anything related to Islam has become an obsession, but even you cannot believe that something like FGM can happen in a UK muslim community without the knowledge of their Sharia council ….. or maybe you can ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know female genital mutilation is a crime in the UK, I already said it’s a heinous crime. 

Your retreat into a defense that can be summarized as ‘it’s all kept secret’ isn’t getting out of your baseless claim.

 

“Sharia courts in the UK promoting and overseeing female genital mutilation of children.”

 

Do you want to withdraw that allegation?

 

Or are you going to insist making accusations of promotion of and participation in heinous crimes against children for which you have zero evidence?

Absolutely not; and I find it abhorrent that you, as a non UK citizen, come on this forum defending the pernicious, divisive, Islamic Sharia councils in the UK.

 

However, people are finally waking up to the destructive nature of the extreme left wing views that you, and others, have been advocating, in your monotonous promotion of both Islam, and, of course, your own virtuosity.

 

But fortunately, what you believe to be a virtue, is now being seen as a profound weakness, and your views have been an enormous part of the problem, rather than offering any solution to it; thankfully, your views are now proving to be on the wrong side of history, as the western world rails against your deleterious advocacy; shame on you.
