Interesting to see what happens but am some others like me wonder why you mentioned religion. Think a can guess

[Spicerack]

You'd think all those years working for Lutfur Rahman would keep her on the straight and narrow.

[Spicerack]

I gave it a great deal of thought, bob, aaaand stuck it in there.

[emmie]

hardly spicy, that toerag should have been shunted out of the back door years ago.

Lutfur Rahman is poised for a comeback......

[emmie]

that rat should have gone to jail, if he's poised for a comeback then shame on the populace that vote for him

What's the relevance of her faith?

[Peter Pedant]

erm she has practise with her MP expenses
and said
everyone does this dont they?

[Peter Pedant]

lutfer rahman is back

well crooks get elected and then try anything to get re elected
it is a fact of life

[andy-hughes]

The link didn't feel it necessary to highlight the MP's faith - any special reason why you did?

[youngmafbog]

//What's the relevance of her faith?//

Maybe the actual faith has little relevance but surely those who purport to be holier than thou (any religion) it is relevant?

[Atheist]

YMB; I don't recall any posts here which refer to the accused being a christian.

[emmie]

usually they are Labour/Conservative not normally Muslim..

[Paigntonian]

Another one bites the dust, I am pleased to say.

[emmie]

not necessarily so Paignton, i thought that the odious crook Rahman was toast, seems not.

[Togo]

//YMB; I don't recall any posts here which refer to the accused being a christian.//

They are usually atheists. That is why a muslim is so unusual.

[emmie]

not so unusual in that borough -

[Paigntonian]

Peter Pedant: This was before she became an MP.

[youngmafbog]

"YMB; I don't recall any posts here which refer to the accused being a christian."

Well maybe that is why I wrote "Maybe the actual faith has little relevance" eh?

how's the Tory MP accused of rape getting on? Still under name suppression, I suppose.
