Muslims in the House of Lords

Racist David Cameron appears to be seriously considering plans to create a "multi faith" House of Lords including more Muslim Imams.

The ultimate goal seems to be focused on avoiding the growing secular shift in society with the Tory Christian fellowship pursuing an agenda which retains a stronger role for faith in the second chamber. Ironically, although no friend of Muslims by pursuing this approach of reinforcing spirituality in the Lords the Tories seem destined to increase the number of Muslims represented. 

In reality what the Tories really want are more Anglicans and Catholics as well as some friends from the Black Pentecostal Churches whose ability to turn up the sound system and engage in a bit of happy clapping should provide for more lively debates amongst their Lordships. 

Frankly LM opposes the bicameral parliamentary system here in the UK which allows an appointed second chamber. This policy is all about the corrupt political class looking after themselves and using a few self appointed male religious community elders to tick a diversity box. As Tony Benn once said if you cannot get rid of the people who govern you, you do not live in a democracy.

  1. It's amazing how you can be so intolerant and prejudiced of every other faith in the world yet you insist on throwing your toys out the pram whenever other people say anything (good or bad) about Islam.

    If you are serious about defeating islamaphobia you really do need to stop being such an unashamed and bigotted hypocrite. Not only is it deeply frustrating, it is also utterly ridiculous, illogical and counter productive.

  3. There are religions other than Islam and Christianity. Don't they deserve a mention, or to be considered part of this debate?
