    The thing with that is, you can sort of guess what he means, and the approach from JHB should have been predicted, but it's his arrogance and contempt that pushes him to respond in such a patronising and condescending way that just makes him look a tit. Anyone facing the media should have received some training in such things, so they can use it to their advantage.

    The human right not to be stabbed first emerges in The Magna Carta, so possibly more of a secular issue than your question implies.

    They do like to show their inherent racism by assuming muslims are all dusky folk don't they.

    There is clearly some headway in the Muslim community in East London and their assimilation into British life and values.

    The young lady stabber may have been misguided to attempt to murder the hapless Labour MP but at least she booked an appointment and waited her turn before lunging with her carving knife.

    You can break them down into different categories:

    - Gammon-curious folk that tend to dabble in gammoney views but not there yet
    - Closet-Gammons that are not ready to accept and be proud of their way of life, and get upset if you label them as such
    - Gammon-as-**** ****s that embrace it and wear their badge with pride

    I won't bother putting the ****s in here in each category. They know where they belong <ok>
