What do you base that statement on? You wishing for the BNP to get 2 seats at Westminster doesn't mean it'll happen, I wish for a UKIP government!

Thats what i expect them to get not what i want them to get.

Which seats do you think they'll get?

This-England · 15-10-2006, 03:56 PM

Barking and Dagenham.

UK Muslim womens swimming team say 'no problem'.

They must be twice or three times as strong as normal women to get through the water at Olympic speeds! :shock: Duncan Goodhew said a bald head helped with speed. Surely these outfits would cause tremendous drag, but am I wrong? :?: :?

I doubt the Polish, Romanians and Bulgarians will allow that.

Not as good as " Nun wrestling weekly" ( watch Were Rabbit )

Hold it. In the last London Olympics, if Chariots of Fire is based on truth, didn't someone forego a medal rather than race on the Christian Sabbath. Events will be held on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays regardless of the religious beliefs of the competitors.

The timing of the Olympics is nothing to do with the UK; that's why we have an International Olympic Committee. Had we not won the vote the French would have hosted the Olympics on the same dates!!!!!

The timings might be different in another hemisphere, but the whole point of the dates is to maximise daylight usage and to compete in the open in half way decent weather. How many people would attend an outdoor event in November? What chance would there be of getting all of the events completed in an English autumn? Has anybody seen the sea off Weymouth on an October evening; the sailing events would turn into a full scale search and rescue exercise? The Winter Olympics are held when it is icy and cold, but clear. If the Winter Olympics clashed with Ramadan would anybody suggest moving them to the hotter months?

The other question to ask is how many women competitors will be coming from Muslim countries? The Algerian female runner has been threatened with death for daring to run bare legged. At the opening of the games count the number of women in the teams from Muslim countries. Also, at the Disabled Olympics have a look at the list of countries who do not compete because they treat their disabled like dirt. The Soviets didn't hold a Disabled Olympics in Moscow because in the Soviet system there were only fit people (nobody remembers that do they - the Soviets used to eliminate or exclude the disabled from society).

The modern Olympics is not about coming together - it is about money. I remember when the Brits were gifted amateurs and the Yanks had sports scholarships to universities. The Yanks trained 7 days a week and could barely read or write, but graduated summa cum laude if they got gold. The German athletes were conscripted into special battalions of sportsmen - I competed in an international military fencing tournament. I trained once or twice a week; the German fencers trained 5 days a week and did a little bit of artillery work as well!

Then we had the scandal of athletes holding up their sports shoes so everyone could see the logos. Then we had the black power salutes. Drug taking is rife.

Then there were all the political arguments about who should host. The backhanders and politicking are obscene. Apparently the Finns changed their vote from Paris to london because of a snide comment about Finnish food by the French President!

This latest foray by some Muslims is just another excuse to politicise the Olympics. It's like Salmond on the one hand advocating a Scotland team whilst the EU commission thinks that we should only have one EU team and should compete in EU flags. The Olympics has been political for too long. Anyone see the photo of the French team giving the Nazi salute in Berlin in 1936?

Of course in Munich wasn't it Muslims who massacred the Israeli team?

This cr@p about Ramadan is just yet more of the same b@llshit that we have experienced over the years. I'm not interested. As Matt has spotted, they can compete and make up for it at a later stage, but there's no votes in that!

This Ramadam thing is a farce for a lot of these people because they do not do it because they want to,they do it because others are observing them,like religious police.

Having spent many years having to lock my office doors during the month of Ramadam to keep the hypocritical muzzers out and thereby stopping them from eating,drinking water and OTHER liquids,smoking and chatting up the females I think I can safely say that this Ramadam only covers about 65/70% of them in Algeria,Marroco,and Tunisia.

It's party time as usual for the remainder of them.

With regard to the wearing of the veil,in the above country's,it's done by maybe 5/6% or so,it's unusual,seldom seen.

Besides that,it is not a religious thing to wear it.

Being on a plane full of "devout"muzzers,and taking off from Algiers for Paris or London,you need to get ready for the rush to the toilets when the bell sounds,as soon as it does these "religious hypocrits"run to the loos to struggle into their tight denim jeans and low cut bloussons,and the women are even worse,running around in 1978s retro Olivia Newton John crotch grabing black silk strides.

I don't need to mention their consumption of alco on flights into civilisation,a drunken muzzer is a sight to behold, believe me.

I cherrish the memories of these sights. :roll:
