It doesn't - it's the only wind up subject that fits in his infantile mind.

The picture of Noel Edmonds in your avatar looks very faded. Time for a new one perhaps?

A lot of the banks do Muslim friendly accounts now.

I bet they do! 'No interest on your account sir? Not a problem.'

Because its another attempt to pander to minorities that scream the loudest (or blow themselves up).

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

it is called liberal democracy.

Nobody bites anymore - give it up.

I think it's brilliant that banks etc are producing products to fit in with peoples beliefs. THe same way I think it's great that there are Halal butchers and a kosher food section in Sainsburys.

Bollocks. Where's the pandering to Sikhs and Hindus? No one panders to them because they just get on with things. f***ing Muslims just keep pushing and pushing all the time.

The banking system is hardly pandering. It's jumping on a bandwagon that has been rolling for centuries.

Strangely enough Watford O - if you owned a bank and someone came to you and said "Can you mind my money, I don't want any interest or anything" I hardly think you'd say no...

From the banks point of view, if they didnt do it they would be stupid.


I might go to Iraq and try and open an English bank account with the local branch, see how well that goes down...... (somehow I dont think I would make it back to England in one piece!)

That seems to describe you. Perhaps they are assimilating more than you care to admit.

Out of interest where did you stand on the sikh crash helmet debate ?

It is not an Iraqi coming to England to open a bank account. It is banks providing a service to customers residing in this country.

 

[WATFORD O]

This isnt a banking issue. I dont care what banks do. Its a government form and a government issue.

Its like having signs in government buildings in every language under the sun. ALL signs should be in English. End of.
