Sadiq Kahn’s views on Donald Trump - unprofessional?

So all Muslims are baddies and must be reviled. Quite a leap.

Ahhh, but that was YOUR leap, Elvive, not mine.

Interesting what you did there though.

Welcome, by the way. Have you been here before in another guise?

It seems to me that the term "racist" is being bandied about so much it is losing all meaning. I seem to recall some time ago a poster being told the fact that he/she was married to an immigrant didn't mean he/she wasn't racist - I never did follow the logic of that.

Who said "So all Muslims are baddies and must be reviled"? I think you are trying to put words into the mouths of others Elvive, they certainly aren't MY words or MY meaning. Yes I am aware that millions of Muslims fought in WWII, together with millions of Christians, Jews, Sikhs and those of many religious faiths. Strange that you should point out "Muslims" when my post didn't even refer to religion. Think you've just proved my point.

If there’s a left wing bubble there’s presumably also right wing bubble who are in the thrall of Farage et al. Plenty of evidence of their shrill denials and delusions here.

If being intolerant of racism, mysoginism, Islamaphobia and any other belief which categorises one group of people as being inferior to another is to be called fascism then I really have stepped through the mirror with Alice.
Fascism has certain Identifiable characteristics. There are 14 here
ratical.org/ratville/CAH/fasci14chars.html
Number 3 is what I believe some people on GN are developing. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

GG and Gone Girl

Thank you ' both' I was wrong and to be honest I never gave it a thought. My mistake.

Khan is of course Mayor of London not Lord Mayor of London.

It's a good job they spent all that public cash on erecting barriers, otherwise the adoring crowds would surely have totally overwhelmed the Trump procession.Ha Ha

Opal, I wasn't addressing you?

I was referring to the link made by*another poster* between the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby and Sadiq Khan.

Ellanvannin - you are so full of vitriol. My username is Glammy57 and not “Grammy57”. In answer to your question: I am mother, grandmother, wife of a retired Naval officer. My husband is an honorary member of the N.V.A and I have two dear friends who served in WW11. I have worked as a volunteer both in the UK and abroad. I support several charities and try to be a good citizen of this country. My daughter, a consultant psychiatrist, was raised to treat everyone with respect, whatever their race, creed or class. Yes, I am a Corbyn supporter because I believe in helping those less fortunate than myself. My having to pay higher taxes to achieve this sits well with my social conscience. Hopefully, this gives you some insight to who I am!

You must be proud of your daughter Glammy.

Well done Glammy57 for being so open about who you are and dispelling the notion that anyone with service connexions will automatically be right-wing.

^ dispelling the notion that anyone with service connexions will automatically be right-wing.^
surely you didn't believe that to be true, varian?

I doubt you will find anyone more left-wing Labour than a friend of ours, ex-RN! He served as a local politician too and has very decided views even at 90.

I still don't know who you are Glammy. Are you famous?

Jabberwok it sadly looks as though Prince Harry is being " controlled " by his Trump-hating wife

Of all the tosh I have read on GN or elsewhere, this takes the proverbial. “Controlled” ? What century do you live in?
What a cheek to presume anything about another marriage or relationship which has nothing to do with you
Oh Gransnet at its worst , think “Shreddies, knitted by Nanas”
You have to laugh or you would cringe at the embarrassment.

Trisher, can you not see what you are doing?
You choose to label people as racist, mysoginistic and Islamaphobic, then think that justifies your intolerance of them.

Glammy57, I thought a lot about your post about Lee Rigby last night.
I still think was one of the most shocking I have read.

NVA - what is that please Glammy57

We forget things and make little slip-ups.
I just made a big one (another thread) - fumble fisted at the moment

easy, you were shocked that somebody questioned being so deeply affected by the murder of Lee Rigby that things were never the same again?

Gosh, you are easily shocked. Why would anybody outside of the family be so traumatised that they would feel this way?Although we are not entirely clear what is never the same?

Oh and what exactly is the link between his murder and Sadiq Khan?

Me ? Full of vitriol ? Glammy57. That'll be the day. If anyone is, it's yourself.

Oh God we are tetchy today aren't we Mawbroonsback ?

This is where I see the other side to some of you " ladies " !

Why the interrogation of Glammy57? Her family life is private and she shouldn't have to justify herself to anyone on GN. Are you famous? What sort of a question is that? How rude.

so EV, please take a moment to enlighten us all to the connection between Fusilier Lee Rigby and Sadiq Khan and why you will never feel the same again?

Oh hang on......the PC Brigade transport has arrived. I will just remove my chip from my shoulder and join them, not forgetting to show my race card on the way out.

Why do you want to know, Elvive ? So you and your cohorts can fan the flames ??
Nasty individual. You're like a dog with a bone, aren't you ?
