The old Sharia law moron-baiting session again. Naturally more iylismwdyglt’s, but with some rather imaginative variations:
Our country is already far too multi-cultural as it is without letting them have their own legal system, if they want sharia law i will gladly drive them all to their local airport.
Paul Day, Peterborough
I love this. I love how his ideal scenario involves him having to give 1.5 million people a lift with all their luggage. Petrol’s expensive these days, you know.
Please, NO. If any part of sharia law is incorporated into our law I will be emigrating on the next plane out.
This is taking over the country by the back door and I do not like it. Enoch Powell was right, if sharia law is adopted, I am sure the backlash would be greater than the riots in Oldham and elsewhere.
Would the last white Englishman to leave, turn out the light.
emigrating, Dukinfield
I started off against Sharia, but then I read this post and was instantly sold. Imagine! Something as simple as allowing religious laws for mediating minor familial disputes could be enough to get the self-righteous, racist, constantly-griping “indigenous population” to leave the country for normal people. I just worry for the Costa del Sol.
Is this “will the last to leave please turn out the light” a quote from something fucking hilarious by the way? Does anybody know? Or is it just a catchy phrase that racists say to each other when they have a piss-up?
There are many athiests in the UK who want less religious docterine in our lives but are in favour of social charters. I feel victimised by all this religious clap-trap.
Bring back serious punishment for serious crimes….some people cannot be reformed and this statement is supported by terms like ‘repeat offenders’ or ‘career criminals’….these terms should never exist.
Stop using religion as the leader in moral fibre.
An Athiest, Greenock
He opposes Sharia but just loves brutal punishments. Someone should tell him about the chopping, whipping and stoning. He’d probably be right on board and force himself to emigrate.
I have lived in Sharia Countries since 1977. I know hundreds of Muslims very well and their common aim (100%) is that Islam will take over the world by any and all means available. They must be thanking this Judge for bringing that day closer.
[ExpatQ], Chepstow and Doha,, Quatar
Something tells me that ExpatQ has mistaken the desire of Muslims (100%) to kick him in the nuts with a desire for world domination.
I am shocked to hear something so unwise suggested by someone who no doubt considers himself so important.

I think it comes from the Sun’s headline just before the 1992 election when it looked like Labour would win. There was a big picture of Kinnock’s head an the Sun asked, in the event of him becoming PM, if “the last person to leave Britain would turn out the light.”
Its always good when someone decides they are a “something” and can speak on behalf of “something”s but can’t be bothered to find out how to spell that “something”. Atheist.
thirty years of your life living among savages who you (100%) mistrust and dislike.
You’re a bit of a nob then.
And you can’t spell Qatar. So maybe, in fact, you’re just a bullshitting moron who never left your western compound for the six-month contract and hated the fact you couldn’t get Boddingtons.

Clearly Sharia propaganda from the 80′s.
Who knew?
I can’t help wondering if all of the “right , that’s it, I’ll leave the country” merchants have thought that , on doing that, they become immigrants in their new chosen country… I hope they are equally as vocal in demanding their rights as immigrants.
maybe we should put max mosley in charge of punishments, I hear he is looking for a job and its somewhat of a passion of his?
if they want sharia law i will gladly drive them all to their local airport.
They won’t want to go to THEIR local airport though will they Paul? They’ll want to go to YOUR local airport, clog up YOUR streets, in YOUR car, running on the blood, sweat and tears of YOUR hard earned cash…
Tosspot.
I’m now imagining ExpatQ (a foreign name if ever I heard one) with a clipboard asking passers-by:
1) Are you a Muslim?
2) Would you like to rule the world?
Who on Earth would answer ‘no’ to the second question? Most HYSers are openly and loudly hell-bent on world domination but that doesn’t mean we have to take them seriously.
The “would the last person to leave please turn out the lights” joke was also used in East Germany, in the period immediately following the opening of the borders, but before re-unification with the West. Thousands were leaving for lucrative jobs (especially skilled people, such as doctors).
Also, Paul Day will no doubt attach conditions to the lift he’s offering – they have to sit in silence while he listens to his Bernard Manning tapes at full volume.
What would these people say if they knew that English law probably already incorporates aspects of Sharia, and has done for centuries?

Appears to pre-date The [oh-so-hilarious] Pun, though surely must be a quote from somewhere else…?
Em you have too much time on your hands, thats how people end up on HYS you know
Are you sure ‘emigrating, Dukinfield’ isn’t twat-o-tron generated?
I’m just glad I left while diplomatic wages were high, air fares were low, and I didn’t share Business Class with a bunch of morons ranting about ‘those pakis’ while also becoming an immigrant themselves. At least, as an expat, I contribute something to the economy, rather than opening ‘Las Slags’ or whatever the Costa dare think.
Does a blog exist that charts all the Spanish in the Costa del Crime complaining about the Brits?
I have a vague recollection of seeing one of those satirical Punch-esque cartoons in A Level History that said something along the lines of “will the last person to leave…” and I think it was in response to the US dropping the atomic bomb on Japan.
“will the last person to leave Japan please try and turn out the pulsing, radioactive glow”
i suppose a sensible discussion about any topic is too much to ask these days.
i mean – there are hardly any black people in government let alone muslisms hell-bent on world domination. quite how adopting elements of sharia law to help in mediation situations spells the end of british democracy is beyond me… maybe if i read the Sun it will all become a bit clearer.
I like to think that they emigrate, find that they are now immigrants and either demand to be immediately deported or explode in a huge fireball of twuntery.
“I have lived in Sharia Countries since 1977. I know hundreds of Muslims very well and their common aim (100%) is that Islam will take over the world by any and all means available.”
hell’s bells! why can’t Islam be more like all the other major religions, y’know, kinda chilled out and indifferent?
call me a loose, tree-hugging liberal (go on, do), but trying to parse the term “far too multi-cultural” is like trying to imagine a round square
Fucko – I’m a data-entry drone cum shop assistant – I would far rather dredge google for the origin of a phrase than work any day. Now, if I were a clown….
Moron Baiting. That sums up HYS perfectly.
And it must be said that HYS is full of master baiters.
Ithangyew.
Haha, Em works in a cum shop.
Sorry, couldn’t resist. I’ll get me coat…
