It's not a first. I've seen evidence of similar over the years. The police take them down and that's the end of It. This one happened to get sent or seen by an MP.

It'll blow over no doubt.

I was thinking of you a couple of hours ago, Oscar. I went to my local public library to return a book & if possible get a new one. I noticed AGAIN (it had happened before a few years back but was corrected) that the majority of books is once again in Russian. The English collection is smaller & smaller & the titles could be better. I went over to the desk & asked the Russian woman behind it WHO above her I could complain to. She did not answer. The only American working there took me over to an office where sat the two Head Librarians, Russians. I asked WHO, Above You, can I complain to about this situation. They wouldn't answer! They kept bullying me about WHY it was that way, that they were serving the community. After this went on for 15 minutes, & I won't hijack your thread by telling you what I said, one of them smirked to the other "She wants to read more Romances". I don't read Romances & felt that was a slap at those who do. The American left & came immediately back with a paper listing WHO Above the Local Branch I could complain to.

Think of it, oscar, they were so arrogant not to answer my question, my one question. I was honestly thinking of you, & in a respectful manner. Sometimes, enough is enough. As soon as my Grandparents & other relatives got off the boats in the early 20th century they made it their business to learn to speak, READ & Write ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's actually very relevant to the topic here Anne.

The problem we have Is like you In the USA, the Idea of a multi-culteral Eutopia fails because the populace Is not spread out. What we see Is ethnic communities where the British may be as low as 40 % In some cities. Naturally, you then have shops who will want to cater for the largest population often leaving the Indigenous feeling Isolated. That's because It's perfectly natural for new Immigrants wanting to live among their own people. The British do It In Spain In Ex Pat land. But as the thnic community grows, you then see white flight because the Indigenous feel Isolated. That's not the fault of the Immigrants or the people but the spineless governments who failed to ensure Integration and assimilation.

A friend of mine grew up in Chicago. His family is polish. They came to Chicago in the early 20th Century.

Whenever I was in town, we would meet up and a restaurant in the old Polish section.

Now a lot of recent arrivals from Poland and the Ukraine have moved in.

Last month I was in Chicago for work. I called him up and asked if he wanted to meet up at the old favorite. He said, "No, let's go somewhere else. Nobody there speaks English, these days."

Whenever I've visited a country where the language is other than English, I have always made an attempt to learn at least some of the basics in the native language of that country - something I consider to be nothing less than common courtesy. To expect them to speak English I would see as being downright rude.

However, when we are faced with visitors / immigrants from other countries, when we get annoyed when they make not the slightest attempt to speak our language we are classed as being racist & non culturally tolerant.

Despite what the P.C. Brigade would hammer into us, Racism & Cultural Tolerance is a 2-way street. Positive Discrimination is still Discrimination.

I speak 5 languages, more or less all of them fluently, and I have been to nearly 100 countries round the world. If the fact that I have not learned at least some of the basics of the other 95 languages means that I am "commonly discourteous" then I guess I will just have to live with the shame.

Mustafa now has two children and one on the way with another woman, who came to the UK in 2007, does not speak English and is "utterly dependant" on him, Mr Cook said.

My Lord! This is the sort of thing that SD (Sverige Demokraterna) would hold up as exibit number 1 in how/why they would (given their wishes) deport the bugger, well any immigrant who commits a crime on Swedish soil.

But OK. No judgement from me ........ baring deportation what do YOU say should be done in this case? Baring deportation, mind.

It's sheer hypocrisy. Only last week we had a judge jail a grandmother for waving to her grand daughter In a playground after a no contact order. Yet we spare others prison because their wives are dependent on them. English families are dependent on working fathers but judges jail them every day.

Yes, any Immigrant who commits a serious crime and Is convicted should be deported.

Isn't this a contradiction?



“He is married with six children ......... His wife doesn’t work and speaks very little English, they are dependent on him to lead their lives and with the running of the household.”

..... yet .......

Passing sentence, Judge Michael Byrne told Maknojioa: " ....... You are now unemployed, living on state benefits.”

It looks to me that the family is not dependant upon the father - but Social Services. Lock him up!

:wah: I'm multi-tasking here at the moment.

What to do other than deportation ? I'd just like to see a system where fairness and equality ruled. That Is, treat them exactly the same way as a judge would jail an English man for the same crime.

I'd like to see stricter guidelines In our courts so some old fart of a judge can't fall for emotional blackmail by the defence.

More hypocrisy today.

The evangelists say they were threatened with arrest for committing a "hate crime" and were told they risked being beaten up if they returned. The incident will fuel fears that "no-go areas" for Christians are emerging in British towns and cities, as the Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester, claimed in The Sunday Telegraph this year.

Arthur Cunningham, 48, and Joseph Abraham, 65, both full-time evangelical ministers, have launched legal action against West Midlands Police, claiming the officer infringed their right to profess their religion.

Mr Abraham said: "I couldn't believe this was happening in Britain. The Bishop of Rochester was criticised by the Church of England recently when he said there were no-go areas in Britain but he was right; there are certainly no-go areas for Christians who want to share the gospel."

Last night, Christian campaigners described the officer's behaviour as "deeply alarming".

So what do you think this guy, what's his name .... Mustafa should get? What would an Englishman get do you think? I mean, for that crime? Do you think the cost of prison being ballanced against the amount he swindled should be considered? And how does it translate to other crimes? I'm only making conversation here, I'm not setting you up or trying to lead you along the path to some bear trap. :) I think it's interesting because we have a similar problem in Sweden and I have no idea what the government think their doing.

I understand what you're saying but don't we insist that our children stay clear of "the bad part of town"? True, it may not be a racial/religeous issue but we do acknowledge that certain parts of the city are .......... "special" and that we perhaps ought not to wander into it.

First of all, where criminal precedents have been set, then I'd like to see a justice system that adhere's to those precedents. IE Jail a British man for two years for benefit fraud, then jail everyone for benefit fraud. The law currently states that the courts take Into consideration, the defendants circumstances yet they'll happily jail a British guy for two years knowing his wife and kids are dependent on his wage and without It, the family will suffer.

A system where any Immigrant entering the UK must have a reasonable command of the English language. Those who don't such as Mustapha's wife to be committed to learning the language whilst here..... after all... what If he left her or was killed?

Well, I understand the crap about a silly threat to the Moslem community, but come on! If a Cuban or North Korean raised their flags the whole place would go up in flames. If you can't have one you shouldn't have the other.

Yes, I agree with you. Anyone jailed is out of touch with his responsibilities in one way or another. Giving special consideration for poor English language skills is really pushing it. Have you ever heard Fred West of Cromwell Street speak? Jesus wept! He must have been dependant upon his children for language skills too. Did the Peelers take any consideration for that? Don't think so.

The price of Justice should never be measured in pounds shillings and pence, otherwise we wouldn't jail anybody.

The 'dependency' of the non English speaking wife is not monetary, being devils advocate here, the husband is needed to ask whether the meat is Halal when shopping and to converse with the kid's teachers on Open Days.

Not sure if you're joking here but if the family observe Islamic seder then you can be certain they only shop in hallal butcheries. I've been to a few Open Days and the woman you speak of couldn't care less what is being said. In fact, it is fairly obvious that she had no idea why she was invited to come in the first place.

I was trying to say in a humorous way that the dependancy was not simply monetary

I hugely admire how the British People have always welcomed people of other races and belief systems to their country once they were willing to make a positive contribution.



However this welcome has been spat on by sections within Sunni (in the main) Islamic communities who take all of the benefits Britain has to offer while completely disrespecting British, Western European values of free speech, equality and mutual respect.



The clowns in UKIP tried to start a hate campaign against Romanians. Give me a street full of Romanians over one Radical Sunni everytime...
