    It doesnt matter what you think of them. Theyre still a legitimate political party. Not a very credible one granted, but entitled to a vote the same as any other party.

    not quite as scary though is it.

    Maybe their demands are never ending and that is why no one should cater to them.

    Scotland: Doctors given Ramadan guidelines


    Professionals, especially those dealing with life threatening situations, should not impair their capabilities, even for religious practice. Who makes sure that fasting doctors are capable of treating patients?
    HOSPITAL staff in the Lothians have been told not to eat at their desks to avoid offending Muslim colleagues during Ramadan.

    NHS Lothian has advised doctors and other health workers not to have working lunches during the 30-day fast, which begins next month.

    The health service's Equality and Diversity Officer sent an e-mail to all senior managers, giving guidance on religious tolerance.

    This includes ensuring Muslim staff are given breaks to pray, and time off to celebrate Eid at the end of Ramadan.

    It is understood they also advised hospital managers to move food trolleys away from areas where Muslims work.

    U.K. Ramadan Imposed on Non-Muslim Council Members



    Once again the selfishness of Islam has struck non-Muslims. All members of the Tower Hamlets Council in East London have been asked to follow the strict Islamic rules of Ramadan. Muslims continue to show us that they have no respect for the beliefs of non-Muslims nor can they be trusted. They were given trust by being voted into these positions and now they are using the power given to them against non-Muslims. What happens when Muslims become the majority of this council? Will they just vote in a law that says the whole town has to obey the rules of Ramadan? I am sure they will try.....don't vote Muslim.





    Muslim council chiefs ban ALL members from 'tea and sandwiches' in meetings which take place during Ramadan

    By Daily Mail Reporter
    Last updated at 1:59 AM on 29th August 2008


    Councillors have been ordered not to eat during town hall meetings while Muslim colleagues fast during the holy month of Ramadan.

    All elected members at Left-wing Tower Hamlets Council in East London have been sent an email asking them to follow strict Islamic fasting during September no matter what their faith.

    As well as restricting food and drink until after sunset, the authority's leaders have decided to reduce the number of meetings throughout the month so they do not clash with the requirements of Ramadan.



    The seven remaining meetings scheduled to take place will also include special prayer breaks to accommodate Muslim councillors.

    But some members of the Labour-run council say the demands favour one religious group over the others.

    Dr Stephanie Eaton, leader of the Liberal Democrat group, said she would ignore the restrictions.



    She said: 'The Liberal Democrats have enormous respect for the contribution of all faith groups and cultures to the life of the community of Tower Hamlets.

    'But we fervently believe that the rules of any one religion should not be imposed upon others.

    'I was rather disconcerted to see that the arrangements put in place for Ramadan, which we support for Muslim colleagues, have been imposed upon all councillors.


    'We object to the request that non-Muslim councillors observe the fasting rules for Ramadan. This sends out the wrong message to our community.

    'Our community consists of a huge number of different religions, all of which should be valued, and no one religion should be accorded more status or influence than others.'

    This is not the first time the council, which has a broad ethnic make-up, has courted controversy.

    It has been criticised in the past for being 'overly politically correct' after calling its staff Christmas meal a 'festive meal'.

    And it has also staged a Bonfire Night party which featured a Bengal tiger instead of Guy Fawkes.

    During Ramadan, strict Muslims are obliged to fast between sunrise and sundown.

    They must abstain from all food, drink, gum chewing, tobacco, and any kind of sexual contact.

    The holy period falls on the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, and this year it begins at the start of September, which means there are more daylight fasting hours than if it fell in later months.

    Most of the council's debates are scheduled to start at 6.30pm.

    But with the sun not setting until an hour later, devout Muslims will be unable to break their fast - known as Iftar - until midway through the meeting, where they will be given a 45-minute break.

    Food and refreshments, such as sandwiches and biscuits, are normally laid on at town hall meetings.

    Controversy has arisen because all members have been told not to eat until after sunset, out of courtesy to their Muslim colleagues, and so there will be food left for them later in the evening.

    In the memo to councillors, John Williams, the council's head of democratic services, said: 'It is requested that members do not partake of any refreshments until after the Iftar refreshments are served.'

    Council bosses said the arrangements were in place 'where it is not reasonable to expect members observing Ramadan, and who are required to attend a formal committee or other meeting, to travel home in time for sundown in order to break fast and undertake prayers'.

    0h...how nice of the Muslims for not imposing a full set of Ramadan laws on non-Muslims. YET.

    If they need to live by Islam, they do not belong in non-Islamic countries.

    nice, well thought out post milkman.

    all religion is barking in my opinion but to suggest that one is any less deserving of respect than another is bigoted.
    There is nothing more bigoted then Islam.

    After 29 pages, another wingnut joins the fray...

    Where do they all come from? Is there a cloning lab somewhere or is it part of an experiment in creating interactive bot-posters?

    This is what really chaffes, why should a Muslim be offended at the sight of others eating. Hey, if you want to fast, go ahead, but leave me out of it.

    Why is someone who has a different opinion/point of view a wingnut?
    Do you think Islam is a tolerant religion?

    This thread has moved from posting false information to copy-pasting from anti-Islam blogs, with a few inciting remarks thrown in.

    Have another bacon-sandwich and crack another bottle open, you'll feel better. LOL

    That's really beside the point... in any case Islam is not a tolerant religion in most countries, but there are exceptions as CMn pointed out. However there tolerant side totally get lost behind the noise the radical and not tolerant muslims make, and that's what the world see, and it don't really help that muslims there seem to be moderate immigrate to other countries and more or less ask for special treatment, because of there religion...They should respect the country that they choose to move to, and get on with there life...

    If you say so, but then, again, the issue here is not me, but Islam.
    Do you consider it a tolerant religion?

    If you are a Christian fundementalist you believe that the only way to Heaven is through the teaching of Jesus Christ. All those who claim to be prophets after Jesus are false. etc etc!
