The case should be made and remade: freedom of expression on religion isn't up for negotiation. Couldn't have put it better myself Labour MP Naz Shah has to realize she is living in a Western cultural society that allowed her to become an MP It's not prudent for her to try and change the basic fundamentals of that society that gave her so much opportunity in life ... besides, the Labor party of the UK probably don't agree either, that she should try to bring in her Sharia style of censorship So, this MP is not entitled to have an opinion of her own? Because she is a Muslim she is a second-class citizen? Oh, dearie, dearie, me, and your the one who is always rabbiting on about democracy. You do realise what the fundamental principle of democracy is? All voices are equal. You have betrayed the very concept you like to promote. Tsk, tsk. BTW, I don't agree with her opinion but she is entitled to have it. Show me where I said she wasn't entitled to her opinion or that she was a second class citizen That is effectively what you are saying. You are implying because she is a Muslim her opinions are wrong and she shouldn't be voicing them. Tsk, tsk. You are the one that keeps mentioning she is Muslim. I have neither said she is muslim, nor mentioned her religion. She may not even be religious, she might only be doing what her constituents are asking her to do ... and if that's what she is doing, she is still expressing and publicly advocating that element of Sharia - "Don't poke fun at the Prophet" ... which of course is unwarranted censorship in a Western culture and society So far you haven't discussed the topic, all you've done is attack members. Try discussing the proposed censoring of freedom of expression for a change, if you know anything about it I have in my first post in the thread. Tsk, tsk, telling lies about me. Oh, dearie, dearie, me. She is entitled to opinion, the same as everybody else. Here's a question, what chance do you think her amendments will be conferred on the bill?
