The
Curry King Lord Gulam Noon initiated a debate on Prevent in the House of Lords which resulted in a Tory Minister saying "we are all Mongrels in this country".
LM could not help thinking the debate resembled a sketch from Goodness Gracious Me where out of touch unelected uppity Asians from the Sub Continent were trying to outdo each other with soundbites that completely missed the point.
"Pull the Drawbridge up" Noon
who disgracefully backed the Iraq War supporting Oona King over Ken Livingstone started the debate with his usual after dinner speech about how inconsiderate terrorists interrupted his dinner in a luxury Mumbai Hotel. One can only be amused by a bloke from my backyard of Southall who makes Curry and says he is not a policy man initiating a debate about policy.
Perhaps the Tories have a Curry job in mind for Noon.
We had the usual array of comedians and coconuts
with leading buffoon and racist Baroness Flathers also wheeled out to play her current useful role of being a Brownie who likes to attacks other Brownies. First it was Pakistanis and Bangladeshis living off Benefits in her words now rather ominously she took a dangerous swipe at Islam and Muslims saying there are cities with no white people and that is because Muslims "have no desire to mix with white people". Deranged talk like this feeds the anti Muslim hatred and just because we don't like her wallow in white trophy husbands live in posh Windsor with no faith is no reason for grotesque gratuitous generalisations or insults under the cloak of parliamentary privilege.
Flathers upset
Lord Shagger Sheikh who pressed her (no pun intended) on what evidence she has that Mosques were encouraging extremism, her pathetic response is illustrative of her approach to an evidence based approach when she replied "I will get you evidence, but I do not have it at the moment". Sheikh went on in his speech to shockingly say this Tory spying operation is a "clear, focused strategy on tackling extremism". Interesting that nobody least of all the Tory Muslim Peers
made any mention of Cameron's racist speeches in particular his
Racist speech in Munich.
The unelected unaccountable political class can talk about cohesion and integration as much as they like however, you do not need to waste £36m stigmatising and stereotyping an entire faith. Where there are challenges in our community we Muslims must be allowed the opportunity to deal with them head on without having hard pressed taxpayers money thrown at us which understandably annoys other communities.
