    The UK is not as bad as Venezuela

    Yeah you do. Unfortunately. They're pro-austerity, anti-unions, pro-populism, anti-democracy, pro-privatisation and pro-nationalism. They're definitely right-wing. Good luck getting 2% Robinson elected. Or do you now back the Brexit Party?

    The UK is not as bad as Venezuela

    How convenient of you to reach the conclusion that we should not try to extrapolate what Churchill might have wanted as soon as you realise it's impossible for you to quote him as saying anything that might support your side of the argument.

    The UK is not as bad as Venezuela

    Sounds like he wanted a federal Europe to me. He deliberately used the USA as a direct comparison. "United States of Europe"

    The UK is not as bad as Venezuela

    Churchill was not a proponent of British values as he hoped to see a United States of Europe one day. Oh well...

    whats your beef with brexit?

    So you could complain about it being forced on us?

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    See, I don't think he actually was prepared to talk to a woman. Notice how he does nothing but attempt to shout her down whenever she makes a valid point? That must be very disconcerting for him. There's no way in Tartarus he's used to that. Chalk another one up for the non-homophobes - I just...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    Seriously, this "straight talking politician" you speak of is a mythical creature. Politicians, by their nature, don't talk straight. As to your other questions, here's one. Her name is Jess Phillips; she's the Labour MP for Yardley and she's been down to the protest site in person to confront...

    Bye, Bye Theresa

    Argument from numbers fallacy.

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    Common sense prevails for the time being: the council has obtained an injunction order which pushes the closest acceptable locations for protest a street back from Anderton Park Primary School in all directions. Personally, I don't think it goes far enough. They should be pushed back a minimum...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    'Straight-talking' referring to appealing to bigoted populism in an effort to obtain power. So nothing new for the Tories then. It can be 40000:0 speaking out in favour of the parents for all that matters, but no matter how many do so, they're still in the wrong. I've noticed how you've...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    Can't help but notice you're not addressing the elephant in the room which is this stance - that you're so admiring her for having one of - is pandering to Muslim religious bigotry, using their religious beliefs to try and disadvantage another minority community, and is actually a great example...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    Well since these are planned lessons, the teachers will have set time aside to discuss this just as they will be doing with science and maths. I'm not entirely sure what is "R-rated" about 'Sarah has two mummies' that isn't "R-rated" about 'Sarah has a mummy and a daddy'.

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    Why? Because it helps you avoid having to ask yourself potentially unpleasant questions about your side's own inconsistent stance?

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    I concur. I think we'd both agree that we'd find more backbone in an amoeba culture than in Corbyn. I was actually being facetious. I don't value McVey's opinions on much of anything. I think her statement is incredibly reactionary, is grandstanding for the sake of political advancement and...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    And that's exactly what is happening at Anderton and Parkfield schools. As these parents would know if they ever sat down and read through the course material without any sort of religiously-conceived bias.

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    No I don't. What exactly about telling kids that some other children live with two mummies or two daddies is "R-rated"? You do realise that relationships can be explained to children outside of a sexual context, don't you? I mean you're an adult, for goodness' sake. Do you not realise that...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    She's making concessions to Islamists and is displaying an incredibly dhim(mi) attitude. But still, at least she's talking about it...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    I'm not sure if anybody has asked him. Not that I care much for his opinion. It wouldn't surprise me if he tried to say the Government's behaviour is ****ty but also tried to say that the parents are in the right because they're Muslims...

    Birmingham Muslims pull their kids out of LGBT-inclusive lessons

    And now Esther McVey, potential Tory leader and Prime Ministerial candidate, has thrown her support behind the homophobic parents protesting these lessons outside Anderton Park school - rather than the teachers and support staff the Government have thrown to the Islamic wolves. Protesters who...

    Sex strike

    Because anti-choicers don't want to be convinced. They want to be right. They want to be so right they can force their beliefs on people who disagree otherwise. The pro-choice argument is sound logically & morally, and is the reasonable middle ground (because if you don't want an abortion you...
