Are you being deliberately obtuse?

A church is a private place where believers can join together to worship. I just don't want them touching the lives of anyone else, unless they seek them out themselves. So not on the public square, which is shared with non-believers or believers in another faith. No prayers before meetings, as a small example.

So no more singing God Save the Queen? Shame. My favourite Sex Pistols song.

Interesting point. One I had not thought about!

How we deal with the established Church and the national anthem are matters that can be kicked into the long grass for now. Charles seems broadly in favour of greater inclusiveness. William even more so. So I guess a solution could be found which satisfies most.

Maybe we change the words of the anthem or, in time, broaden the meaning of "God" sufficiently to still be acceptable.

It's very unlikely to happen in our lifetimes, though.

This was the part that confused me … People can believe whatever they want and worship together, but in private. No public displays.
So it’s private in public. Got it.

No you see, they have to believe what he believes....his values.

You know, where we ignore and don't arrest grooming gangs because it might upset communities. Where we have sympathy for the Police and social services who made those decisions because they were under resourced......though magically suddenly found the resources once the Times reported on their criminal negligence.

Disgusting values like that.

There is no plan devised by our "political masters" (who we can change ourselves, if we get organised). It's simply the consequences of capitalism and the consumerism it produces.

Whereas, where the alternatives to capitalism have been tried, people have been reduced to eating their own children due to starvation. That is if they have not been worked to death in slave labour camps or executed in some purge of enemies of the people.

What nonsense!

They don't have to believe anything! All I am expressing is what I think would improve things and therefore hope will happen.

It's an opinion, and a suggestion on where our direction of travel may take us.

If all you want to do is blow hot air at the problem of radical extremism and blame others for its existence, then fine. You won't make any difference.

I have not expressed an opinion on whether the way the authorities handled things in the past was either wise or unwise. All I have done is attempt to rationalise why it happened and express my belief that Yaxley-Lennon has made a bad situation worse.

Then you are supporting the point I am making. Capitalism enables people to prosper, but it also turns people into consumers.

Not the same kind of consumption though. There would be a bit less consumerism when Christmas has been removed from the calendar under the Wisbech Plan.

Why?

Christmas would just be renamed "Wistmas" and celebrated with a vegetarian roast followed by a compulsory hike through the spectacular fens at dawn on Boxing day, during which everyone would be required to give presents to people they don't know in a spirit of brotherhood and love.

Hmm…could create wistfulness for times gone by. I consider a hike to be from a barstool to the Gents so that will have to suffice for this proposed WisYomp. Also there are more people I don’t know than ones I do so it could get pricey.

That is a direct lie from a liar.

He most certainly has expressed preference for how the authorities handled it. He even claimed to have known about what was going on decades ago. His early posts on this are quite different from how he posts now.

My primary first step would be to remove all religion from every aspect of public life, especially our schools. By statute, with no exceptions. No religious schools. No prayers in Parliament.

It would be fiercely resisted and cause all kinds of temporary issues, but ultimately should lead towards the kind of society I want to see.

People can believe whatever they want and worship together, but in private. No public displays. No proselytisation of any kind.

The French tried that. It failed.

They found Islam to be about as cooperative, accommodating & flexible as my ex-wife.

Your memory either fails you or, more likely, you misunderstood the sense of what I was saying because of your prejudices. I have a general sympathy for the under-resourced Police and Social Services, who are asked to juggle many balls and then take the flak when something goes wrong.

I have always believed, and said, that those who commit these offences need to be detected and prosecuted with the utmost vigour, and their victims provided with appropriate support. I have also said that doesn't mean we should ostracise a whole community as a consequence. Finding the balance is a challenge that none of us have the responsibility for, yet many seem to think they know better.

I was aware of a problem a long time ago, in the immediate area I was then living in. I didn't know, and still don't, whether that was replicated elsewhere back then.
