Ninety-nine arrested in paedophile abuse raids
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18442288

This story isn't covered by the Mail yet, but I trust when they do that they will be consistent and publish the details of the ethnic background and religious upbringings of every single detainee.

In a similar vein I presume that the EDL will hold protests outside all of any subsequent trails of the detainees rather than singling out any which happen to be Muslims and/or ethnic minorities (if indeed there are any).

In fairness I doubt they can summon the manpower to demonstrate after that many arrests.

Oh, it's been covered by the Mail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2159263/Scout-leader-retired-teacher-members-Armed-Services-76-arrested-nationwide-paedophile-swoop.html but oddly enough it's failed to mention the religious beliefs or the nationality of any one.

This chap might turn up in the Mail, mind.

Its presence in the East London Advertiser is baffling.

A peeeedo who's a Muslim AND a worthless blood-sucking public sector worker, the Mailites will cream themselves over that one.

A ban on bangers: Hundreds of school pupils denied pork because of 'religious reasons'

That's right - hundreds of schoolchildren are being forced to go without sausages for one of their daily meals, all because of them Muslims. The mailites seem to think that a pork-based lunch is a fundamental right and that it's somehow cruel to deprive children of it.





Yeah, this country was built on pork

We built this city, we built this city on sausage rolls...

But seriously, what's wrong with showing someone just a little respect? They're schoolkids.

Nah. It's the Mail. Let's bully 'em.

Is there a "National Pig Association" ?

Yes.
It calls itself the voice of the pig industry.

Oink?

Their leader has just got an MBE for Porcine Services. Seriously.
He's Digby Scott, and he edits Pig World magazine.

I thought Pig World was an ironically titled magazine for policemen.

I think the Mail might win for PC-Nonsense Jobsworths on this one.





The schools opted out to supply pork-containing products, according to their wording of the issue. It wouldn't surprise me if most of these schools are in heavily Muslim/Jewish community areas - I know parts of Bradford have high Islamic populations, for example.

As well as any possible religious objections, there's also the fact that it wouldn't exactly be cost-effective to supply pork in a school where the majority of kids (and probably staff) don't eat it.

Indeed. There's also the possibility that this was put to the parents before any decision was made.

That's a key point. Also nowadays the minimum requirement will be to have a pork-free alternative meal at each serving. If the kitchen or serving area can't provide adequate isolation of kosher/halal and non it is just simpler not to offer it. It isn't as though there are that many pork meals used in schools, effectively sausages, bacon and roast. Sausages are largely out because of other health concerns, bacon doesn't much figure in lunch menus (different for breakfast) and most roasts nowadays are lamb (no religious objections from anybody except Hindus and they'll probably take the veggie option anyway).

What seems to be changing is the parental attitude to halal and kosher. Once upon a time it was never mentioned, and segregation of foods was slack. The theory was that rules didn't apply as rigorously to children. Whether the change is due to increased 'militance' or greater confidence in demanding what people wanted all along I don't know.
