As Islam provided a great deal of our knowledge in all three areas,plus medicine and general scientific advances when we were still using leeches as a wonder cure,I would imagine they would be perfectly fine.
no suppressed feelings there then

You all love this comedian lad and I admit he comes out with some bangers so let me show you why I don't believe the UK has freedom of speech anymore through him:

Maybe he was amusing at first but I find his schtick is a bit tired now.

Load of nonsense. You have the freedom to say all the racist/ homophobic / sexist et al shit you like. Just like any decent human being has the same right you call you out if you do. Freedom of speech isn’t a freedom from criticism.

100% agree with you and I seem to see this an awful lot lately, the idea that freedom of speech isn't a freedom from criticism. Is going to prison an acceptable form of criticism then? Don't get me wrong, those neo nazis who walk the streets shouting at anyone not white should be shunned entirely, those mentalists that are essentially 'dey tok our jerbs' from South Park about any immigration need to either be educated or ignored, but jesus ****ing christ it's now not uncommon for these people to be arrested/fined/given prison time for a tasteless TWEET.

But we know that some ‘tasteless tweets’ inspire some people to commit atrocities in their name. For instance Labour MP Jo Cox was murdered because someone was inspired by a few ‘tasteless tweets’ from Tommy Robinson.
What are you talking about?!

So, you're against division yet continue to undermine the will of the majority and fight for its invalidation.
I'm thinking 'Hypocrite'.

Yawn yawn. We’ve had this discussion numerous times on this site. Think up a new argument or angle.
That vote was over three years ago now. You have no idea if it’s still the will of the people or not.

Been to pride a fair few times, parades are good fun and celebrate all things different, after that it’s mostly just a load of 16-21 year olds looking for an excuse to get pissed up and take drugs with no actual value for what the event represents.
Exactly what young people should be doing. Better than the wave of woke teenagers holding hands, drinking coffee and discussing feelings and their studies. Get yourself pissed.

Alternatively, they can join the Conservative party?
