Got to admit though most of the other shops have posters that I can't read because they aren't in English who knows what they are saying perhaps they should be made to provide an English version just as the council have to provide forms in a variety of languages!
I can't remember the last time I rode along Blackburn Road...so I haven't seen them, however it is good to hear that some Muslims are making their feelings known.
It does the cause of Islam no favours when there is a stunning silence...although it has been reported in the newspapers today that the Muslim Council of Britain has taken out some full page adverts to denounce these acts........it is just a little bit late don't you think?

Yes, I think you are right about the signs that are not in English...they could be saying 'Death to the infidels' for all we know.
