My thoughts are with all of his widows.

Don't underestimate the impact 'looking popular' can have. Especially when compared to May.

Awful news

Muslim Council of Britain encouraging imams not to give the Islamic equivalent of 'last rites' to the attackers. Fair play to them, they're taking a very firm stance on this. Alongside our friends and neighbours, we mourn this attack on our home, society and people and feel pain for the suffering of the victims and their families. We pray to God that the perpetrators be judged in accordance with the gravity of their crimes in the hereafter. Their acts and wilful dismissal of our religious principles alienates them from any association with our community for whom the inviolability of every human life is the founding principle. Consequently, and in light of other such ethical principles which are quintessential to Islam, we will not perform the traditional Islamic funeral prayer for the perpetrators and we also urge fellow imams and religious authorities to withdraw such a privilege. This is because such indefensible actions are completely at odds with the lofty teachings of Islam.

Because I deplore what the tories have done to the welfare state, our libraries, our medical professionals, our police force etc etc. I think we should look after people less fortunate than me, I think everyone should have access to a good education whatever their background, I think the state should take back control of public services and utilities so services aren't compromised by the profit motive - and I will happily pay higher taxes for all of this. Corbyn, for all his flaws as a leader, launched a manifesto that offers a clear choice. It's the most left wing campaign since the early 80s and though I doubt he'll win, I feel compelled to vote labour for the first time since before the Iraq war.

InShaAllah Buttocks be upon you.
