As an American who has been engrained with the whole freedom of religion thing, this one is a bit of a head-scratcher for me. I looked him up on wiki, and I think it's fair to say that regardless of whether you'd vote for a Muslim or not, there are obviously far worse Muslims than this guy.

If I was a Londoner, I still likely would not have voted for him, but I'm not sure because I really haven't looked into it enough.

If his relatively moderate views help other Muslims become more moderate, that's a good thing.

According to khan terrorist attacks by Muslims are just “part and parcel of living in a big city”.

He’s not as smooth an operator as he thinks he is.

Of course it's part and parcel with living with Muslims.

I don't like anyone in positions of power who espouse their religion, be they Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh or anything else. I see the separation of Church and State as the most important and fundamental tenent of a proper working democracy. Anyone who brings up their religion automatically loses my support.

[Tony1244]

I'd support someone who was born Muslim who is now agnostic over a practicing Jew or Christian, if that was all I was going by.

People are complaining about immigration but the UK is going to be in serious trouble in the near future without immigration as the birth rate is dropping precipitously:

This is the conundrum all over the developed world. Birth rates are tanking but there's also an anti-immigration backlash at the same time. It's gonna be real interesting when the social security fund runs out and seniors are staring down steep benefit cuts in a few years.

So, Camus was right about the Great Replacement then?

You can be selective in whom you want to come in, but the reality is you are going to new people to come in or you will end up in a spiral of stagnant economic growth.

Opposition to replacement populations is also rapidly growing in Japan and South Korea, which means if you embrace the radical left position. they too are dyed in the wool Nazis.

We don't need constant economic growth. We are rich enough already. Stability and quality of life are much more important.

Youth unemployment is skyrocketing, every day on the radio they tell us AI is making thousands of jobs redundant and yet we need more people packed into the UK whose population density is already ridiculous?
Bugger that. We need fewer people, not more.

Yep. Also, if we're serious about the environment. Less people = less polution, less use of resources, fewer greenhouse gasses, etc. In reality, all government wants to do is to use the green agenda as a revenue raiser.

[smiling assassin]

The green agenda has only ever been about the money. You have to pay Ulez to get to Heathrow airport but let’s not worry about the emission coming out of the planes.

We are a small island, until places like China and India start taking it seriously il continue to not give the green issue the time of day. It’s bollocks.

[Tony1244]

I was always into the zero growth population thing. The world has too many people. Well, Westerners, and others like the Japanese are having less children. It's the old be careful what you wish for.

This warped financial model we have now is the reason for falling birthrates, young people just cant afford to settle down any more, people cant afford to buy a house, get married.....even funeral's, people literally cant afford to fvcking die nowadays. Things which were once rights of passage and seen as part of the natural cycle are now reserved for a privileged few.
Go back a generation or two and it wasnt uncommon to see an 18 or 19 year old man and wife living in a house with a baby and another one on the way.
Capitalism, turning houses into glorified stocks and shares instead of seeing them as places to raise a family has corrupted the natural order of things.

100%, young people's futures are looking incredibly bleak, a relative of mine worked in a factory and bought a house in his 20s whilst his wife stayed at home, that house today would be half a million, the manager couldn't buy it today evenif he was married to anither manager, let alone one worker.

This is an example of why economic 'growth' os such a crap measure of societal progress.

There are some young uns where i work and they have given hope of ever buying a property, they literally see it as an impossibility, tragic.

If they could figure out a way of controlling the atmosphere they'd charge us for breathing. Capitalism has corrupted our souls, we need to find a new financial system to save ourselves as a species and to save the planet. I remember watching an interview with Warren Buffet and even he said he's troubled that capitalism appeals to mans lesser angels not his better. Things like greed, ruthlessness and selfishness are practically virtues in capitalism.
Feeding the capitalist machine is why our cities look like the united nations general assembly with people from everywhere.

F*ck that people can't afford to buy their own home anymore or the ethics debate on if one should vote for a Muslim. Whether he looks like a lesbian or not is all that is important. Yeah he kind of does look like a lesbian. One from Maine with a winter jacket vest in a hardware store.
