As you may have guessed, our server crashed on Monday, again! This is so annoying and worse still, some posts and comments have yet to be retrieved and indeed some won’t be. Please bear with us, this is so frustrating for me. In the meantime, here is a new Open Thread, approved by Harriet Harman for being breast-free.

        Have you seen the reports of ISIS executing people for being gay?  Not on the BBC….nor it might be added has the caring Media Hasan made any comment despite his opportunistic and disengenuous little tweet here:     And he is outraged at blood being spilled in the name of the prophet….   ….Just, it seems, not ‘gay blood’.

Any thoughts on what the BBC headlines would be?  What would Tim Wilcox say?     … Continue reading →
