Re: Third Mosque for Accrington

have nothing at all against any briton being commemorated on our stamps, within reason, as far as Marie Stopes is concerned she does not enter those boundaries. imho, n find it strange some try to justify her inclusion. probably cos they were not aware of the things garinda posted, n are too stubborn to hold their hands up.

as for this mosque - i hope it doesnt go through. there's no need for it. tariq ali is a bag of hot air which is why he didnt get elected. i do hope it gets made into a kids play area - a footy pitch or something. THATS needed a mosque isnt. the one just up from willows lane barely gets full on daily prayers and they all go to grimshaw st mosque for the friday prayers which still doesnt get full. only on the rare funerals i've seen that place get full and on eid prayers.

its in a bad location too - if possible they should seek to extend the grimshaw st site esp wtih the derelict site near by.

Royal Mail condemned for honouring 'Nazi' Marie Stopes in Women of Distinction stamps | Mail Online
You learn something every day as they say......I never knew that Marie Stopes was acccused of being a nazi sympathiser.

However, she wasn't all bad, she did do a lot of good work for women and reproductive services.

If that comment was directed at me, I was well aware that Marie Stopes had some ideas on Selective Breeding but as previously stated I do not see that as her lasting contribution to society and hence not worth the fuss

Yes, but with her sending love letters to Hitler, being a Nazi symathiser, and an exponent of eugenics, it puts a rather different slant on why she didn't want the great unwashed breeding.

Yeah, forget Auschwitz and Belsen, those autobahns the Nazi's built are damn fine roads.

Re: Third Mosque for Accrington

[quote=garinda;647805]Reportedly there could be 'a large community centre at the side of the building'.

Also reported in the local press is the fact that this is a private enterprise, there is no mention of any public funds being used.

As for how many mosques are needed I suppose that's down to supply and demand, the same as it is for churches.[/quote

Just because there is no mention of public funding in the local press does not mean there is none.There was also no mention in the local press when
most of the muslim students at Moorhead school where chanting and cheering when the nine eleven atrocity took place

There was no mention in the press report of the new Mosque being built in space, and brought down to Accy by little green men either.

Perhaps that's going to happen too.

well if the cap fits so they say, but as you are aware on certain ideas of hers, please enlighten us, after all they aint worth the fuss.

My son is visiting this Mosque on Wednesday on a school trip.This mosque

The Irish people have a lot more say in there goverment and beleive in when in Rome do as the romans do.They show tolerence but expect immigrants to embrace there culture and not try and change it.
