Are they building a cathedral in Southend? I think the deal is that they won't have to have a cathedral but they won't have any mosques at all. None. |

Maybe that would be a fitting tribute to all of the victims of islamospackery. No mosques in any British cities

What's is the similarity between Southend on Sea and Las Vegas?

Haha!
The cathedral thing's a bit of a myth. A city doesn't need a cathedral to be a city,

It used to be in England that a diocesan cathedral defined a city. Any newfangled "city" without a diocese isn't a real city.
In the US, literally every half-arsed hamlet can be a city. Warm River, Idaho, for example: "The population was 3 at the 2010 census, making it the least populous city in Idaho." according to Wiki.

As an example, Bath is a city and it doesn't have a cathedral. Come to think of it, neither does Cambridge.

Cambridge is not a city. Never was. It's a tin-pot provincial backwater.
Bath has a diocese (Bishop of Bath and Wells) so it can be a city even if the bishop lives in Wells.

I forget now: is UK an emirate and SE England merely a caliphate? Or are we all just lumped in with Greater Andalucia?

The evil, treacherous BBC have, very cunningly, reframed the Islamic terrorist murder of David Amess to make it about showing more kindness to our MPs. This would be like saying, after the Manchester Arena bombing, that we really must be nicer to our teenagers; or, after the London Bridge van attack, that we should drive more carefully; or after the Westminster Bridge attack, that we should be nicer to pedestrians on bridges; or after the 7/7 tube butchery, to please be more considerate to fellow passengers on crowded trains. As if Ali Harbi Ali were just a disgruntled constituent with an axe to grind about potholes in the roads or the price of cornflakes. No, no, no. This completely misses the point. The issue is NOT being nicer to our MPs, the issue is Islamic terrorism. By refusing to acknowledge that fact (in their news bulletins they don’t even mention the words Islamic or islamist) the BBC are complicit in murder. So St Joe killed by right wing fanatic and Sir David killed by British man...... Hold on - where have you seen that this was an “Islamist terror” attack? Or is this another example of “he’s brown so must be a terrorist”? |

Look, I know you're a bit obsessed in pushing this unhinged view of the BBC (its not new), but this is the second MP murdered in 5 years, many others have been attacked verbally and physically, with only this latest one being Islamic, Jo Cox was murdered by a brextremist remember. So yes calling for greater protection of MP's in general is a very valid point to be making, its called looking at the bigger picture. UJ is hard of thinking. |

He's pretty smart when he wants to be but unbalanced, probably because his beloved East End's been taken over by Pakistani types (most of whom frankly are less violent than the original inhabitants). |

Wrong. He's pretty smart when he wants to be but unbalanced, probably because his beloved East End's been taken over by Pakistani types (most of whom frankly are less violent than the original inhabitants). “Taken over by” - they’re Britons though. You cannot take over your own country. (Anyway I am sure that the East End would have been those of Bangladeshi descent.) It’s weird how it’s only a “takeover” when they’re brown. She Bush isn’t “taken over by” Aussies nor is Kensington “taken over by” French people. But basically you’re saying he’s racist which I don’t disagree with. |

You have a sickness. But reading those there is barely any difference. They do link Cox’s to the rhetoric at the time she was killed which seems reasonable. You seem to want to treat two different contexts identically with no mention of the tensions that were worsening due to the Brexit vote. |
