CPN. Should have been an historian. Mainly talk politics & post uncomfortable truths. Repellent to ideologues. Tick all your little boxes. Mo Salah ticks mine.

Remember. A masked mob of Muslims turned up at a school and a teacher’s life was threatened (like Samuel Paty) because he showed a picture of Muhammad. That teacher is still in hiding. The police did nothing. Don’t insult people by pretending two-tier policing doesn’t exist. An independent report - the Khan Review - concluded that the teacher was badly let down by the school, the local council and in particular the police, who, despite cleared of any malicious intent by an independent investigation, “did not consider him a victim of crime.”
