British police demonstrated their regard for free speech and freedom of religion in threatening Christians with arrest for proselytizing.
A police community support officer ordered two Christian preachers to stop handing out gospel leaflets in a predominantly Muslim area of Birmingham. The evangelists say they were threatened with arrest for committing a “hate crime” and were told they risked being beaten up if they returned. The incident will fuel fears that “no-go areas” for Christians are emerging in British towns and cities …
And it’s not just Muslim ghettos. Britain might soon have eco-ghettos as well.
Opposition to the Government’s eco-towns project has surged with protesters signing up at the rate of 2,000 a day to call on the Prime Minister to halt plans for 10 new towns across England. Campaigners from all over the country are working together to oppose against the plans, which have been criticised by environmental groups, planning authorities and local residents. advertisement There have now been 60,000 protesters who have given their signatures to oppose the towns, dubbed “Gordon’s ghettoes”, in one of the biggest grassroots protests for years.
Which is worse, I am not sure.
