    Ive lived in scotland

    All my life.

    I've never met a Ukrainian, a Russian, a Palestinian and I don't believe I've met a Jew.

    I've never met an Iranian, an iraqi or a Syrian.

    Why is this ****e on the UK and Scottish news 24/7.

    I've worked with a Russian, but he's the only one I've ever met in Scotland. Also currently work with an Iranian, one of only two I've ever met in Scotland, he hates Iran and couldn't wait to get away.

    Never met a Syrian, a Ukrainian or an Israeli and I'm not even sure Palestine actually exists as a nation.

    Whoops - is it Islamophobic to say you're not sure Palestine actually exists as a nation? It seems breathing is Islamophobic these days.

    Have given up on looking at headlines on GB news. Seem to be anti establishment but not in a way that will help create a better democracy, imo. Bit like Trump v Biden. Neither seem to be capable of running a democracy.
    MSM doesn't publish news now. Sorry they do, but once their initial "facts" have been reported they then speculate and discuss flights of fancy.

    Oh dear. Hope the Dundee branch of Hamas and/or the 'thought police' don't know where you live after you making these blasphemous remarks. I'd be moving if I were you just to be on the safe side.

    Think you’ve probably met a few Jews , I worked with one in the Cash , didn’t know for around 10 years, I was totally shocked when I found out , as he’d been eating bacon rolls nearly every morning break time all those years , he just said he couldn’t resist the smell of well cooked bacon ha

    Bonnyton Golf Club is a Jewish golf club but now only 30% of its members are Jewish.
    I enclose an article about Bonnyton Golf Club. https://www.jta.org/2014/09/22/sport...ging-character

    Think you make a reasonable point. All faith groups should be respected.

    tolerated as far as I would go.

    I doubt lent or Easter will get mentioned by police Scotland.....big for practicing catholics

    Is it honaka for Jews.......no chance

    12 th July for those celebrating " protestant heritage " ......lol that would be funny.

    No idea what sieks, buddists or Scientology celebrate......Scientology probably someone opening their wallet. 😆

    But why the deference to islam?...... Certainly one of the more controversial religions..........is it woke going mad, is it because we have a Muslim FM giving donations to terrorist organisations ......who knows.
