I don't think Boris Johnson 'forgot' Abdullah name as some of the media have stated, he knew him from social media so chose not to address him .

I think your right. There are a lot of antisemitic tweets from Abdullah according to LBC this morning

The BBC are a disgrace.

Re: Lining Up For The Race, We Have.....

I watched about 5 minutes at the beginning, then lowered
the tv volume and picked up my kindle!
For me now my hopes are focussed on Nigel ! I know he is
a more long term proposition but there is now no quick way
OUT! Due to Mays machinations and utter stupidity!
At least he is more certain!

Regards Donkeyman!

See my earlier post....

A BBC spokesperson said: "Had we been aware of the views he expressed he would not have been selected."

I think questioner's at these debates should be members of the general public not political activists of any persuasion.




and another suspect 'guest'......

The BBC’s highly suspect guest selection for last night’s flagship debate has been under scrutiny after Guido uncovered Abdullah from Bristol’s tendencies for Zionist conspiracy theories and blaming women for being taken advantage of by men. Now Guido can reveal that the person who asked the final question wasn’t exactly an ordinary member of the public…

Thank God for the fact that we still have a free press.

Without them, politically biased organisations like the BBC would be at liberty to publicise and push their ideals without any questioning or criticism.

Re: Lining Up For The Race, We Have.....

I honestly couldn't bring myself to watch. I saw some of it on the news this morning and it was just a bunch of over-paid idiots arguing as usual. Politicians really haven't learnt a thing have they.

As for the BBC, they should be shut down.

Totally agree. Today they are defending the indefensible by claiming that their vetting system for audience members was adequate.

The more I read, the more it seems that many people agree with you. If things continue along these lines, I'd like to see that happen one day.

The international community are willing to condemn biased organisations and leaders in tin-pot third-world countries. I hope that it occurs to them that the same may be said about our national broadcasting organisation.

His question was "Does the panel agree words have consequences?"Presumably he's talking about `Islamaphopia`.

What about words like "Kill those who insult the prophet", "Behead non-believers" etc. Do they have consequences such as inflaming Islamic terrorism?

After brexit you can re-introduce the death penalty. Perhaps that will have a deterrent effect on these imams?
