I can remember when John Reid was a Communist, perhaps he still is?.His idea that the public should tackle yobs etc is ridiculous. Trying to spark the revolution Mr Reid?

All criminals should be locked up serving appropriate sentences. Prisons overcrowded? put the prisoners on a day shift and night shift. Why should criminals have their own cells, tv etc? Make them recycle rubbish, break rocks, anything get them of the streets. from Dorothy Sokes

This useless lot under Blair should all be sent to prison and the key thrown away.Prescott should have been jailed for non payment of council tax why wasnt he prosecuted.
Dave, Barry S Wales

I thought that prisons were there to protect us from criminals but obviously I have got this wrong,The reason they are there is to give these criminals somewhere to spend leisurely time while they plan there next assault on the public.

My suggestion to gordon to save millions in a stroke, get rid of all the quangos they set up and sack all their family members and friends they put in place to run them, THEN cancel all the contracts to any company owned by or has a MP on its panel and see how they feel when big business refuses to "employ" them in a consultancy roll. Then they may think about how they will have to work and save on their meager wage and worry about their pension lasting for them.

Camilla Queen! no way! she knew what she was doing all along with Charles, also he knew, it takes two to tango, and she wouldnt leave them alone Diana did not stand a hope in hell. Camilla, what comes around goes around. Queen NEVER !!
a wooldridge, new milton hants

I don't know where these polls are done that say people are warming to Camilla. I am certainly not and under no circumstances want her as Queen of this country. People will not forget what she did to Diana

Lou, Manchester

camilla should never become queen,im still loyal to the memory to princess diana, and always will be.charles and camilla should stand aside and let willam or harry be king. edward was never allowed to marry so why was he.
rose drew, bristol

I am pleased papers like express keep Diana name alive.
many thanks.

First of all, Charles was NOT a widower. He does not deserve to be called a widower as he was NOT married to Diana when she died. Camilla should never be Queen. She is the eternal mistress. That's all she is, and she IS an adulterer {and I AM serious} as well as a manipulator. Their entire marriage is a travesty and an embarrassment to their country.
Kathy G, USA

Over my dead body! The whole country needs to remember Diana, Princess of Wales, what she meant to them and how they felt when she was murdered to make way for "this woman". The reason Diana was so unahppy in her marriage was "this woman" and, as far as I am concerned, "this woman" can never be queen.

I think Dorothy is actually posting from Oz (the fictional land, not the fictional prison).



I love this comment. It's such a perfect example of how out of touch some people are.
Prisoners don't have their own cells, even Fletcher and Godber had to share in Porridge !
What is this day and night shift stuff. Is she proposing some people sleep during the day whilst others stay awake all night. I csn see that working when prisoners are locked up 23 hours a day. Maybe we could get 8 people to a cell instead of 4. 4 of them can stand up or sit down for 12 hours while the other 4 sleep, then they can swap.

Dorothy is so angry she can't spell her own name.

The Muslims are a minority but are disproportionately employed as presenters and presumably now as programme planners and decision makers of all our media. Just count the number in any hour of television. If they are just 5% of the presenters I'd be amazed. More like 40% of all presenters. The reason it is so high is because all the broadcast media is concentrated in London which is 60% migrant. Let's start calling a spade a spade and dump this political correctness. I am paying for NHS Direct to translate its pages into 20 different languages. This is a waste of money. They will never learn English if we spoon feed them like this. Why isn't someone doing something instead of placating minorities who want to form a foreign country in our country while we pay for them to do it? What was Kilroy Silk saying about this problem? Was he a voice crying in the wilderness. Our national cultural tolerance has been betrayed and abused by those who do not want to join in while grabbing all the benefits of our Christian heritage which has been created over thousands of years. Come on do something parliament. Don't sit on your salaries while our culture is consigned to a golden age written about in history text books of a future National Sharia Curiculum!!! Yours truly, Fed Up.

Noah Tawl, Dorset UK

I think its absolutley absurd to let this woman on the TV in her veil, the mark of an outdated regime ,which subjegated women as lower than second class citizens in their own countries, if she wants to help her sisterhood crawl into the modern world she should shake off these trappings of a third world Islamic state and rejoice in the fact that in this country she is free to do and say whatever she pleases without being beaten - or stoned to death for stepping out of line. All of this pandering to the Muslims has to stop before we become the minority in our own country,
mr stuart sutherley, leicester

NO, NO, NO! Unless there is a Christian message on TV in Saudi Arabia!
Linda Cohen, Binghamton, USA

Channel 4 - what are they trying to gain from this, apart from annoying Christians!? The producers at Channel 4 are clearly mad - they would not do this otherwise and the Muslim woman who is doing this clearly has no respect for the Christian faith or the Queen of this country and they are just doing more to separate themselves from mainstream Christian Britain. Well done Channel 4 you are complete idiots! And in my opinion you at Channel 4 should be prosecuted for incitement to relgious hatred.
adrian, birmingham

Christmas is a Christian festival and has nothing to do with the Muslim religion. I respect Muslims, but they are are a small minority group in the UK who are aiming to become a majority. They are becoming too powerful.
m. spill, cardiff

This is just a gimmick in very bad taste by Channel 4 .She should concentrate and reading the Koran to try to find the entry that confirms the requirment to cover the face completly.

They should all be told to adapt to our culture and traditions - or pack their bags and clear off back where they came from.

Think I will watch the Muslim Christmas Message through my Letter Box so I can get into the Islamic spirit of Christmas.
Graham Rogers, Southampton

Her religeon expressly forbids her having anything to do with Christmas.
Patricia Sweeney, Lanark, Scotland

Well, we may as well get used to it, because at the current rate Britain will become an Islamic state within the next fifty years.
Dale welsh, Chester

've no objection to a Muslim giving a talk on alternative Christmas, but get rid of the veil. . The timing of a talk given by a veiled radical Islamist to coincide with a talk given by the Head of the Church of England during a major Christian festival adds a colossal insult to injury !!
David, Chelmsford

Additionally, why do you appear to imply all minorities are Law abiding? Surely a typo!
Mick, Swindon, Wilts

'm sickened by the racist, xenophobic and misinformed rantings on this page. C4 has had an 'alternative' message for years, but nobody has ever complained about it before because it tended to be marge simpson, or Ali G, rather than one of 'them'.
keith, aberdeen

Catherine, how ridiculous. Are you implying we shouldn't allow Songs of Praise to be broadcast during Ramadan because it's a MUSLIM religious festival!? For goodness sake woman, live and let live!

I do not buy the Express if I see any mention of Princess Diana.

Let there be a public jury if there is nothing to hide, 99% (!?) of us believe that it was no accident, or this would have been cleared up years ago, good luck to Al Fayed
