    First the 'cartoon crisis' and now this. Only the religion that must not be named could possibly be offended by a jocular remark about dress code. It's a pity those protesting this trivial faux pas weren't so forthcoming in condemning Rotherham and Manchester.

    Don’t agree.
    1. Why describe the Muslim faith as ‘the religion that can’t be named’? It’s probably more talked about than any other.
    2. Rotherham and Rochdale etc was the fault of a small minority of immigrants - amongst whom were many who described themselves as Muslim - and others, who should have known much better, acting in the misplaced name of political correctness.
    3. Think you’ll find there was just as much sadness amongst the moderate Muslim community following the MEN Arena bombing as there was amongst ordinary Catholics following the IRA bombing in the same city. Only extremists and idiots will try and justify such atrocities.
