Political correctness is allowing Islamic terrorism to flourish

Stating the obvious of course. Most can see it but others are swept away on a tide of being seen to be doing the ‘right thing’. I thought her comments on how this way of thinking and acceptance of the way many women are being forced to live within certain communities here in Britain particularly potent. |
The article isn't wrong that high numbers of immigration from incompatible cultures without even attempting integration is ... rather stupid. But why not blame it on crappy policies and idiot politicians rather than "political correctness"?

This is becoming a joke now :/

Why is that then. The woman clearly knows her stuff and just because she isn’t saying what you want to hear obviously doesn’t make it a joke. |
She makes some very valid points
ame Louise Casey, who carried out a two year review into integration in the UK, said our desire to embrace diversity was creating division and also letting down some of the most vulnerable members of society. Dame Louise said: “Islamic extremists are often terrorists and pose the most threat, it is very difficult for us to have that conversation and to deny that seems to make it worse.” But she went on: “The far right milk it every time we are overtly politically correct and are unable to deal with Islamic extremism…Everybody saw how Rotherham sex scandal was milked by EDL to fuel Islamophobia.” She said people often came together to oppose far right marches but failed to show the same unity when it came to addressing inequalities in the communities they were wanting to protect. |

Let’’s tolerate it for the sake of diversity and cultural cohesion. Let’s treat some British values and laws as less important than others to appease minority groups. This attitude simply devalues female equality laws and sacrifices them to appease political correctness and effectively prioritises racism over sexism. |

If she hadn't used that nonsense blanket term I'd say she has a point.

I'd say poor pre-emptive responses are more of a problem in combating terrorism then people using terrorism as an excuse to spread their agenda.
I believe it was after one of the vehicular attacks this year where it was revealed that people at the attacker's mosque had made reports and complaints that he had been radicalised but nothing was done until it was too late and it highlighted an issue with whole 'see something, report it' approach that is promoted at mosques in that response times to tip offs are slow and actual action is not that common. It's often said by ignorant people that 'muslims don't do enough' but what can they do if the authorities fail to act on leads that are provided? |
I've twice deleted a rather lot of posts from this thread, as they were off-topic and about each.
The topic actually deserves to be taken more seriously than that, as it is about a report about a government expert that has researched the issue, rather than just, say, some columnist or commentator just sounding off about PC. You don't need to agree with the government person's statements, just put your own view. |
