From the MSM two stories catch the eye of our political editor. Theresa May, the Home Secretary has criticised universities for their "complacency" in tackling Muslim extremism. Mrs. May said, 'We are looking at a set of values we believe we have here in the UK and those people who are opposed are people who the Government won't be funding or engaging with.' So that's really radical then! Rather than instruct ALL schools in the UK to hold a daily assembly where allegiance to the Queen, to the British flag, and the rule of law is pledged, where all literature from the state is sent to everyone in English, and convicted terrorist are expelled from the country, the Government will settle for withholding funds; and not talking to you.
Yesterday the Telegraph covered the story that Judges at the European Court in Strasbourg have ordered ministers to make a formal statement on whether they believe Christian's rights have been infringed in British courts, which have repeatedly dismissed their entitlement to dress and act according to their beliefs. The court has selected four cases that they feel are of such significance as to be examined further. It seems we have a situation in the UK where legislation to protect minorities has superceded Christian belief, and conscience. Maybe this pressure from the ECHR will cause the Government to overhaul the Equalities Act, and other diversity legislation. But I am not holding my breath.
