It's the fact that the religious leaders keep saying it's a moderate & sensible religion, then you see/hear about events like this. I'm aware that the British punishment & judicial system leaves a lot to be desired, but this is even worse & this is the Sharia that they say should be incorporated into the British legal system ?? Why ??

yer quite correct dave its not just a muslim issue, never has been, when i was a kid us catholics had NOT to eat meat on a friday, which from being a teenager was blatantly ignored by me n many others, the differance lies in the fact, if we would have been Stoned,Flogged, put to Death, or osrtacised by the community, then we would have no doubt adhered to it. but it was not the british way- its called TOLERANCE.
