Blimey, I'd better tell all my friends, relatives, and people I used to work with in Birmingham - I don't think they know they've converted :-)

[jim360]

Maybe, but it's still a pretty whopping error. Most of the segment was.

It's the same in many towns and cities, there will be localities where he's correct - but it's a massive misunderstanding!

och she swee broomie

( that is my attenpt to say je suis charly but Brummie )

I will have to work on Allahu akbar with a Broomie accent

With a scouse accent another city filled with muslims - it sound OK

DB I think you are concluding that any asian is a muslim
lots of Asians there are Hindu - the clue is they speak Hindi and not Urdu ....

At least he's apologised - and I love that inset article which says that the Birmingham Post office tower is a minaret for the local mosque. Where do these people get their misinformation from?!

I haven't been to Birmingham....is it true?

[jim360]

He'd be less wrong if he talked about Birmingham being a no-go area for Muslims, as it was 100% non-Muslim...

[-Talbot-]

In London there are muslim religious police who beat and wound anyone who doesn't dress like a muslim


I'm glad I live oooop norf!

[boxtops]

Talbot - it's multicultural, multiracial, Muslim, Jewish, Hindi, Buddhist, Rastafarian, Christian - you name it.

^The same could be said for several other cities.

[naomi24]

^That was to divebuddy.

[jim360]

It remains a moronic thing to say. There's no getting around that.
