in Cheshire, a 14-year-old Roman Catholic girl who attends Ellesmere Port Catholic High School was branded a truant by teachers for refusing to dress like a Muslim and visit a mosque.

In Stoke-on-Trent, schools have been ordered to rearrange exams, cancel swimming lessons and stop sex education during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. In Norwich, the Knowland Grove Community First School has axed the traditional Christmas play to “look at some of the other great cultural festivals of the world.”

I have read you link and most of that article is rubbish.
And has been debunked here more than once.

About the only story that may be true is the Stoke on Trent/Ramadan story, and even then it may be exaggerated. As newspapers/media are want to do.

I have already explained why Scots children visiting a mosque is nothing sinister. The Holocaust ban story, as we are discussing in this thread, is nonsense and a hoax.

The Crusades story is utter crap. Never read such rubbish.

The halal meat story has been misrepresented. Yes, halal meat IS available now in many UK schools, but it is NOT compulsary. The story that only halal meat is fed to British schoolkids is also nonsense. The actual fact is that halal meat is not more available, but it quickly became an internet myth that ONLY halal meat was available. Which is not true.

Ellesmere Port?. Let me give you a warning (and I say this as a conservative talking about Britain’s most famous conservative newspaper): take what the Daily Mail says with a huge pinch of salt. They are notorious for running stories which are not true. They are notorious for ending up in libel court here. I remember the Ellesmere story, and no other paper ran it, even the downmarket tabloids, because they couldnt find evidence to confirm it.

The Daily Mail has been also famous for every year running a ‘Christmas is banned!’ story. None of which turn out to be true. The most famous being the ‘Winterval’ festival and suppsed banning of Christmas celebrations by Birmingham City Council. It turned out to be a completely false story. Even other rightwing papers (Telegraph, Times) made fun of the Mail for that one.

The pigs/ELC/farm story IS true, BUT the actual story is that the pigs were taken off sets sold in Muslim countries by ELC, NOT the British sold sets.
