It's a recession, but it's hardly Rishi's recession. Recessions are caused by many factors such as a global pandemic, high fuel prices, net zero, and war, all four of which have destabilised the economy and have happened since 2020. I concede, the government could have eased pressure on the economy by binning net zero policies. Not only that but all the stupid EU rules. The Conservative philosophy is to give people autonomy over their lives, which means handing them back the power to decide what is good and what is bad. For example this fucked country has decided to ban all electric scooters unless they are owned by the communist state. Whatever happened to the idea of private property? Those bastards resembling the female anatomy and rhyme with the chancellor's name have become another Labour Party. Hmm, we've got a few Tories in favour of restricting what people can wear. And then me saying wear what you like, none of gummerments damn business, but then I'd be called a lefty...

They can't deal with grown-up issues of complexity, like economics, banking, business and industrial policy, so they focus on what children of the primary school would debate about in the playground. They are legislating who can say what as well.

Nuns wear Habits and veils
Jews wear Skull caps
Sikks wear Turbans
Some Muslim women wear Hajibs or Burkah's
Why does it bother anyone what people wear due to their faith ?

We should ask why things need banning because they bother people. I mean me personally, bad manners bothers me a lot and some bad-mannered person can really upset a social thing you might otherwise enjoy, but I would never think the government should outlaw it. It's the same sort of thing as if you called some woman a bitch. It would be very upsetting, but no need to ban it. People learn to moderate themselves in the right way or they don't get included. It is sometimes necessary even for someone to fight someone else to teach them a lesson. It all comes down to the circumstances at the time and the government must treat us as adults, or I guess we will get rid of them one way or another.

I cant believe that no one has allready created a thread on this, obviously far too many apologists for this bloody government. Recessions are not common, the last official recession we had was 2008 / 2009 and caused by the world banking crisis and "Credit Crunch". But this one is caused by Rishi and his government, surely this tears to shreds a flagship promise, Rishi's pledge to "grow the economy"., just like all his other pledges. Living standards have never fallen back so far since records began in 1955, and its not just the recession that we are now in, its the fact that growth has been painfully poor throughout the entire period the Conservatives have been in power since 2010. We lost our Triple A credit rating under the Conservatives, and we have teetered on the edge of recession no less than FIVE TIMES. It's a recession, but it's hardly Rishi's recession. Recessions are caused by many factors such as a global pandemic, high fuel prices, net zero, and war, all four of which have destabilised the economy and have happened since 2020. I concede, the government could have eased pressure on the economy by binning net zero policies. Funny that doesn't seem to fit in with what the loony right say about the 2008 . Recession when. It was a worldwide recession it was labours fault?

Talk about About cheating the tax payer how about this A hole. A Labour MP is under fire after taxpayers were left with a £130,000 bill for a new brick wall around his back garden. Opponents claim Andrew Gwynne has been given the "red carpet" treatment while other residents were left with only fencing during a bridge upgrade project. The hefty price tag put on the work by National Highways was uncovered using freedom of information laws.

It's all about oppression and control, and doesn't have anything to do with faith. Still, it's good to see the Left supporting hardline Islam.

For someone to cover themselves from head to foot is neither physically nor psychologically healthy, nor is it a religious requirement for Muslims women to do so. IMO very few women would choose to do it if they were not raised to believe they should do it. Or if the male they chose to marry insisted on them dressing in that fashion. The problem is not with Muslims per se, it is in the over self-indoctrination of Islam the religion. Only when people understand the Psychological affect of using affirmations to heal Psychological difficulties will they begin to understand the problems of the overuse of religious self-indoctrination.

In France the wearing of a Cross in school is not permitted, neither is the wearing of a Hijab or Jewish Kippah, otherwise known as a "Skull Cap".
All this is part of the French law which insists on France been a Secular state; A school is considered state or government property, however Jews, Christians and people of all faiths are free to show, or wear religious symbols in public, in their own homes, Churches, Mosques or Synagogues.
In this country, we are supposedly a secular state which quite rightly adopts "Freedom Of Religion", yet we have a head of state who in his terms of acceptance, proclaims that he will "Defend the faith" meaning specifically the Church of England, and excluding other non-Anglican faiths.
Our constitution and system of Democracy needs tidying up, modernising.

Not quite: The French ban on face covering was passed on 14 September 2010, resulting in the ban on the wearing of face-covering headgear, including niqābs and other veils covering the face in public places... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_ban_on_face_covering

It does not get away from the fact that France is attempting to strike a fair balance, unlike in this country where no attempt has been made to modernise our constitution.
We have a ridiculous situation where we are supposedly a secullar state, yet the head of state swears an Oath to defend only one particular Christian faith ( the Church of England ).
The banning of the Full Face / Full Body Islamic covering was done so on non-religious grounds, I can understand the thinking behind it, but am not sure as to whether I agree with it. One thing is 100% certain, it was not implemented due to any anti Islamic sentiment.
