What makes Britain great?

Alan I agree with you if these people so hate the country they are living in then why dont they leave. If they are getting money from the Government there should be some sort of cut off as to how long they can receive money and not bother working. Much to easy on people.
Regarding Salmon Rushdie I am waiting to see if the Government backs down on giving him the award but these people certainly like to intimidate the rest of the world. I find it very scary. Especially when people give into them.

Regarding Salmon Rushdie, I have yet to find one person who can start to read his book and actually finish it. But since it annoys the Pakistani militants so much I wish he had been made a lord of the realm. Who are they to tell us what we can and can not do.

Yet another good reason to sever the bonds that tie us to these insane `European Courts`

Perhaps we shoudl adopt a more German attitude?
"There has been a history of animosity between Germany and the Church of Scientology. The government makes no secret of the fact that it views the organisation, which was founded by sci-fi writer L Ron Hubbard, as a money-making cult rather than a religion, and has denied it tax exemption. Some politicians have called for it to be banned and for Scientologists to be barred from the civil service."
