[bednobs]

whats wrong with that?

[agchristie]

Bednobs - doesn't the headline speak for itself or do you think that is nonsense?

[anneasquith]

And.............?

[anneasquith]

I may be wrong but md's have fish on tthe menu.

[ummmm]

McDonalds isn't halal.

[-Talbot-]

He won't be so keen on Big Mac when he gets banged up in the same cell as him.

[agchristie]

Ummmm - thank you.

We are getting somewhere...

[jackthehat]

The (single relevant) photo shows him carrying a tray.....that's all.

That he is quick to avail himself of all of the benefits of living in UK whilst actively seeking to undermine it is already well-known.

I'm not quite sure what non-stories like this are supposed to bring to the party...

[-Talbot-]

Anything that ridicules him is fine by me.

'Do as I say, not as I do' The mantra of any religion.

i must be being dim here - are muslims not allowed to carry trays? stop at motorway services? only allowed to enter food premises if they serve entirely halal food?
i seriously don't get why this is in a newspaper, why it deserves an exclamation mrk, or why it's in the news section.
This just in: Muslim stops at motorway services !!!!!!!

[ummmm]

It's hypocritical coming from someone as radical as him.

[bednobs]

how is it hypocritical?

[ummmm]

Because McDonalds isn't halal so he's eating at a place against his beliefs.

[ToraToraTora]

well all religious leaders are con men anyway, they exists to control the weak minded.

JTH > I'm not quite sure what non-stories like this are supposed to bring to the party..

I suppose his 'due sentencing' is a non-story? The DM is not the only paper that has mentioned it or is it totally unpalatable because the DM printed it?

You are completely missing the point.

[jackthehat]

Do you?

I'm not sure I mentioned that, at all; only that what the article heading claimed was not shown in the photographs.
I'm all in favour of giving Choudary a good 'kicking' but where the facts speak for themselves...

[bednobs]

but the "article" is about him stopping at a motorway services, with one sentence re the due setencing. I don't care which motorway services he stops at, or which toliet he has a pee in, or which beverage he drinks or food he eats.
It's just lowest common denominator journalism

[bednobs]

if the point was that the article is stupid, then i didn't miss it.

If the point was that AC is hypocritical, that is completely self-evident (preaching hate aginst a country's values while living there is of course hypocritcal)

What does the DM inofrming me he stopped at a motorway services (which isn't halal) tell me ? ?
