    Do you have a domain registry for the local club you are in?. If so you can get free mail accounts from outfits like Zoho based on that domain. If you were the secretary of the creakingdoor fan club, for example, you may register the domain name ‘creakingdoor.org’. If you have that domain name you can set up mail accounts – [email]admin@creakingdoor.org[/email]; [email]cd@creakingdoor.org[/email] etc, etc. That should give you mailboxes with limited exposure to the general background noise.

    PM me if you need a hand with anything like that?

    Google Mail and Hotmail are different entities. Hotmail is a Microsoft bag of spanners and has been rebranded under the MS ‘Outlook’ banner. Google is just a many tentacled thing that demands compliance and is painful to be involved with.

    I’ve not had to set up guarded services like this for a while but you used to be able to get free accounts with a Canadian outfit called ‘Hushmail’ that were pretty well segregated from the mainstream commercial streams…..I think that is now a pay to play service now though.

    GMX do free webmail accounts as well (http://www.gmx.com) that look comprehensive in their features and should be ‘off-grid’ enough that it doesnt get caught up in the Google account bundling.

    John.

    How is pointing out the blatant double standard you’ve employed antagonistic in the slightest degree?.

    However, that is a fraction of the story. One swallow does not a summer make.

    So a limited subset of verifiable data on positive integration does not add up to many swallows……yet a handful of militant extremists claiming religious motivation is sufficient to condemn an entire population?. That sounds intellectually honest.

    Sharia courts are already in UK cities as you already know,

    Yes and any rulings they make contrary to UK law will be punished appropriately….so they aren’t courts….as you already know.

    I haven’t said that one Sharia court in any one city could usher them across the nation, as its all down to demographics and time as I outlined in the post this morning…

    Now were getting somewhere. Now you’ve admitted your sentence……

    Not yet, but what happens when the Muslim demographics reach the majority in a city, when the city council has a Muslim majority, or when a Muslim Mayor is elected

    ….is meaningless rubbish. Would you now detail the level of demographic change necessary to overturn the roughly 45mn vote opposed to Sharia in the country now?. It will inform John if nothing else?.

    John,

    This really isnt 1950. Islamic influence exists in this country. Hindu influence exists in this country. Jewish influence exists in this country. Just as relevant to our society is the influence of american hyper-consumerism, of european liberal socialism, of Russian facism, of Chinese autocracy and financial hegemony.

    When you catch on to the fact that, in the 21st century, every culture that is exposed to the tidal wave of instant global communication is shifting, changing and adapting maybe you can factor in this debate. Our culture is being pulled in many different directions simultaneously and long may that continue.

    You bleat about Sharia and islamification….yet you are too blinkered to see that our, strong, clear and moral values are ones that are Anglicising those of african and asiatic islamic descent at a massively disproportionate rate than the other way around. Simple challenge for you….go find out the statistics for girl children of islamic families in higher and further education in the UK. It’ll be educational for you.

    So Stu any chance of a straight answer seeing you titled this thread the way you have?.

    I see a pile of rhetoric but nothing that addresses the question of how a Muslim majority in a uk city ushers in sharia nationwide?. You’ve made a connection between the two things that, frankly, would be a stretch to call tenuous. Do you have any ability to make a case for this being ‘truth’?.

    Not yet, but what happens when the Muslim demographics reach the majority in a city, when the city council has a Muslim majority, or when a Muslim Mayor is elected, most probably Labour…

    The last time you looked it was 2 million in the UK, that was from the 2011 census, so 5 years later due to high Muslim birthrates and immigration that’s now 3 million, it’s nothing to worry about at all is it Steve… 🙂

    Why would it be something to worry about Stu?.

    What do you think will happen if there is a muslim majority in a city?. Is it going to secede from the union and set up its own caliphate do you think?. Individual city authorities have never had the power to pick and choose which laws they follow and which they dont. Why should that change?.

    Seeing that, on top of the anglo-saxon, celt, norman, roman and viking decendants, there isnt room for enough african/asians to skew a vote towards Sharia I’m fascinated as to what you actually think could be a real problem here???.

    Hello Steve, its actually 3 million of which 50% are not British born, in comparison Wales has population of 3.063 million people.

    OK I’m not quibbling stats when the point still stands. Its 1 million who may want sharia against 44 million who dont. Sharia isnt going to happen here is it?.

    Well said.

    Last I heard there were about 2 million Muslims in the UK. 33% would then be a number somewhere near 600,000 who would vote for sharia here.

    There are about 45 million people of voting age in the UK. So 600,000 against 44.4million?. Don’t think sharia is going to be an issue we need worry about any time in the foreseeable future?.

    Don’t worry Jonesy. Everything will be ok. We’ll look after you. I keep telling you; don’t eat cheese after 10.0pm.

    The news isn’t all bad. I’d back you with hard cash as a promising writer of pulp fiction. Get to night school, sort out your punctuation, grammar and syntax, and that anarchic style, that from you is so reflective, will do the rest.

    Barbara Cartland ? Move over.

    Generosity that is uncharacteristic of you John?. I’m nearly touched. Then again I’m white British aren’t I so maybe the charitable spirit is understandable.

    Suffice it to say all of what’s written above is correct and verifiably so. The fact that you are able to be so blissfully ignorant of it would be more of a concern for you I would have thought. You seem to be missing things as you age John….I’d be saving the pennies for the heating bill if I were you old boy. Just in case that slips your mind one of these days.

    Stu – All of the you tube links and the rest of it.

    FWIW, I accept that the post referendum apocalypse didn’t happen. We do have to note that the QE put into place by the BoE has probably had some effect though. I also note that some commentators have moved that to have meant post Art 50, or Brexit proper, which is disingenuous to a point.

    It isn’t all bad. However, there are enough signs to stop too much back patting – such as the US and Japanese positions and indeed those things that Jonesy notes of contracts being cancelled right now, while companies sit on their hands and wait to see what happens. I think we need to keep looking at the big picture.

    Time will tell.

    From my perspective here Bruce I think its fascinating to see the way that the brick wall that the economy has slammed into, thanks to the vote, has been reported. The abandonment of the Govt. budget surplus target has massive ramifications. Essentially budget surplus….or near target at least….was the signal to end austerity. Its a straight-line equation that the vote to Leave has extended austerity….likely by years….especially with at-best flat growth being briefed at the coal-face.

    The QE, and the highly adept footwork shown by the BoE, is of greater magnitude than a whole years UK net contribution to the EU. £10bn worth of corporate stocks was bought up, by the bank, to drop ready cash into the system. It makes unadulterated mockery of those who said we’d save money by pulling out of the EU. We’ve, in resource terms, had to expend enough to cover another full year of membership as a result of saying we’d leave. How can that be presented as anything other than clearly insane?.

    If I was Carney I’d be struggling to keep a grip on my sanity right about now. I’d certainly be looking for options to get the hell away from the whole mess, back to Canada, and leave the UK to its convulsions. This is the only guy who’s keeping us anywhere near on track right now and he’s having to read statements in the press saying that its so great that all the scare stories proved groundless….when the fact is the danger was very much with us and only defused by a very skillful intervention and an inestimably huge wad of cash. You wonder what would have counted as economic disaster….food riots???.

    Jonesy,

    It’s getting serious. You’re quite deluded. What on earth makes you think that ‘your message is clearly getting thru’.

    The fact that you lot temporise, obfuscate or sink into witless nitpickery when you are shown clear facts….like the need for QE on an economy that you suggested hadn’t seen the dire maladies predicted pre-vote. There is no rebuttal as the facts speak for themselves….ergo message has gotten through. Sure you will ignore it as it doesn’t fit your fantasy 1950’s narrative. Equally I’m sure you’ll find some way to make it all the EU’s fault that the Bank of England had to drop 10bn into the economy to keep things propped up.

    The fact that you are only taking this ‘seriously’ now is also quite evident!. Its been serious for me for weeks…..its serious that I’ve been in meetings for the last few weeks with clients who’re pulling out or pending major capital spends on UK sites. Its serious that were being told that the best we can hope for is zero growth. Its ominous that these things are happening now before we’ve even triggered article 50.

    I’m deluded?. FFS you’re living in a fantasy world man.

    “…and thats my lack of comprehension….not your moving the goalposts…ok.”

    That’s something I copied off you, that and cherry picking, next will be punctuation and spelling mistakes.

    But Steve, something about you has always troubled me, what exactly does your big head compensate for?

    Best regards

    Stu…

    P.S.

    I thought I’d better put this down now as your Mum will be complaining that I kept you up way past your bed time again…

    Berni sends hug’s…

    Go for it Stu critique the spelling mistakes and punctuation errors. I’m on a smartphone now, as I often am, and I’m not going to bother proof reading. I don’t need to as my message is clearly getting through regardless.

    My arrogance is quite easily explained by your child allusions and grammar nazism. If that’s your best banter well….it’s enough said isn’t it?.

    We’re hurting Snafu’s feelings it seems so I’ll drop it there!. Just remember no more experts or you’ll be sent to sit with the lefties!.
