It was night and I was out socialising with some associates when I spotted Andrew sitting in a Chinese Takeaway with a very, very attractive blonde woman some years younger than him and they were obviously waiting for a takeaway. I walked in and said; "Andrew Neil..." and he went white...(I was young and especially powerfully built back then :blush:) but he quickly thawed when I continued; "I'm a massive fan of yours. Hope you don't mind me cutting in on you like this, just wanted to say keep giving those nice politicians a grilling" (or words to that effect :laugh:) He and her both broke into huge smiles and he held out his hand and thanked me as I shook it.

He actually engaged me in political chat for about 5 minutes and seemed genuinely interested in my views.

He seemed like a thoroughly decent guy.

Haha thats brilliant, classic Neil the old dog having a good young bird on his arm

Neil has just said on This Week that Amnesty International have resolved to have nothing more to do with CAGE citing the director's interview on there last week as one of the reason, another victim of the Andrew Neil grilling

it's amazing how much air time they get in the UK, these "hate preachers" are part of a bigger system. How much air time did the british press give that hook man that is now in jail in the US, and the UK authorities do nothing about them.

The spectacle of watching a vicious hate preacher spew forth vile ramblings about how this country and others in the west are basically Satan is embarrassing to watch.

That this piece of crap was allowed to continue to do this for years and received police protection is a shameful indictment of this Country and a complete betrayal of our duty to protect our Christian heritage.

It finally took the American authorities to act and extradite this man to the states where justice was finally served.

But why do we allow people like that to flaunt their hate filled speech in our faces ? Freedom of speech perhaps , well yes this man does have a right to speak his mind but I also have a right not to have to be subjected in public by such vitriol.

Surely people like this need to be on a proper stage one that comes with a tight noose and a small trapdoor .

Time to get tough with these traitors.

As I said above though this interview was part of the reasons Amnesty International have had all ties with CAGE, sometimes exposing them for what they are on national tv can be worthwhile and better then allowing them to parade as a charity and go unchallenged

I can see why, the initial portion of the piece you could relate and identify that Muslim youth may, as vocalised on question time last night feel conflicted.
That said the continuation that jihad have any place in the UK is not I would have said acceptable, it seems to infer a two tier justice system for Muslim and non Muslim or that the whole system be overhauled to incorporate it.
