"A mega structure mosque biggest in the UK, that could hold 10,000 worshippers was rejected at newhams site, the planning of it has been going on for 16 years. The reason was that they wanted to build housing there instead, the leaders of the mosque wasn't happy, but in this climate we need housing more, so I think the government did the right thing, have you heard the news and what do you think of it? It is big news here in London." Shag, if housing is a greater priority (as it may well be in London), then it sounds like a reasonable decision. Why do you think this is big news? I am sure if the Roman Catholic church had applied, the result would be no different. | |||

"the original author is an immigrant themselves.... from Sweden I believe, so is it more a race issue/religious question? I have nothing against Muslims, Jews, Hindu's, Christians, Buddhists or any other religion.... as for the mosque v housing issue, I think affordable housing for first time buyers is a priority nationally..." no it is not a religious thing as I am a non believer myself, just thought it was an interesting thing to get different views on you know. | |||

That is right and as well, it makes you wonder why it have gone on for 16 years, if they could build it, why not 16 years ago. | |||

They might have undergone or bottom floor parking,schools will add an extra classroom,someone will open up another nursery in their house, doctors will add them to their patient lists and tell them to go to a&e or a walk in centre if there's no appointments. If they can't get a dentist they will do what my mum did and go miles to visit one. That's what they do already everywhere else in and around London. | |||

Once religion is banned we should knock down all buildings of worship and build affordable housing on them all.

"Could we build our church in there country or site in the street reading our Bible shouting passages out in the street" It's funny how when any Masjid/Mosque subject comes up, people want to defend Christianity people that normally wouldn't consider themselves Christian. I know in India and Pakistan there are Churches there from when the British ruled and plenty of Asian Christian converts, I've also heard of churches in the Middle East, yes they might be in the minority but not much different then the major cities of the UK. The days of identifying a race with a religion is on its way out. | |||

"there has not been affordable housing in newham since the olympics was announced.... and loads of people who did live there made a killing on their houses and sold up and move out eastwards...... what are the safeguards of people who were to get this housing not doing the same thing lets say 3-5 years from now? unless its all basically going to local housing authorities.. or housing trusts... there is no way to counter it" It's the same all over the UK, the government should allow tax free affordable housing that can be built cheaply and then sold cheaply but with strict restrictions. Firstly they can only be sold to people who have lived in the area for x amount of years, secondly they can only resell to people who have lived in the area for x years and then the price is restricted to ?% increase per year and thirdly they are not allowed to rent the house to anyone. This is already used In some areas but I think it's a good way to allow people a start in owning a property | |||

Just apply capital gains to housing, it really is very simple, take the profit out of housing and watch happens to the prices... Of course this is not going to happen because banks like bigger mortgages and the public are in the main gullible fools | |||

I'm just generally sick of the fucking lot of it. " . To break the cycle we firstly really need to stop lumping everything together like you've just done!. There's a huge difference between illegal immigrants, legal immigrants, asylum seekers and Muslims! What shag posted was a story about British citizens who happen to be Muslim trying to get a giant mosque through planning. If we constantly refer these stories to "immigrants"... Guess what, in the human psyche they all become one!. I don't personally like illegal immigration, it belittles the effort that genuine immigrants go through to come here. Asylum seekers have a genuine right to apply under international law, I wish this to be upheld, the best way to do this, is to stop lumping them in with illegal immigration and terrorists. If somebody posts a story about a giant mosque getting planning over local houses or vise versa, the best thing to do is point out there British citizens acting under the law like everyone else rather than shout them down as racist or xenophobic (personally I don't like giant mosques either and will argue against them just like I argue against nuclear power stations, in my mind it's something to be discouraged not encouraged) | |||

""According to The Empty Homes Agency, there are an estimated 870,000 empty homes in the UK and enough empty commercial property to create 420,000 new homes." Some of them may help alleviate the housing crisis? In fact, some of them may alleviate the homelessness crisis too......" . I try not to be cynical but honestly, the best thing to stop the ridiculous housing bubble is just to apply capital gains on any profit made! I mean in reality it's a massive income for an awful lot of people, that's completely untaxed and its one of the reasons why people are desperate to "get on the housing ladder"... Were just creating bubbles now through 0% interest rates that sooner or later is going to bite UK plc on the arse and everyone will complain about government policy of house building and...

Christian churches exist all over the world where there is a Christian population (I don't say they aren't persecuted but that's another story). Muslim and Islam and all sorts ( ) whatever that means are indeed being born in this country and speak perfectly good English, many second generation immigrants are bi-lingual which is a huge asset in my opinion.

That's the give and take of eu membership, it's perfectly legal immigration! , just like British people living in Spain or Germany! The polish, Czech, Slovakian are actually slowly returning home, the pavements of gold turned out to be asphalt and they were laying it!.

When governments treat voters like children, you'll get child like responses!. Here's the pros There's the cons To mitigate the cons were doing xyz... There's cultural differences not racial differences and theres religious cultural problems that come with different religions! If you had large amounts of Jainism, Buddhists, Quakers, Amish immigration I don't think Id be quite as concerned as large scale immigration of devout christians or Muslims! I'm not really concerned about polish or Slovakian immigration except for the economic issues that come from it, although to be fair eastern Europeans had a slightly old fashioned view on stuff like drink driving, sexisim, racism due to being isolated for so long(think 60s 70s British attitude's) | |||

" What shag posted was a story about British citizens who happen to be Muslim trying to get a giant mosque through planning. That's just it though... Go back 100 years and I don't think there were any Muslim in the UK. Due to immigration Muslim and Islam and all sorts are being born in the UK so they're classed as British even though, in a lot of cases, English isn't their first language. Asylum seekers I agree with but immigration (legal/illegal) I dont. Why? I just feel that we're losing our identity. Go to France, there are French people Go to Germany, German people China? Chinese Etc etc Britain? Polish is now spoken more in Wales than Welsh! " I have to disagree with that. Although the British way of life is changing,people who move here quite often adopt British/Western ways. Every country or culture changes over time,just because someone speaks a different language to you it doesn't mean they have different values. Contrary to some people's beliefs immigrants do adopt British ways. | |||

The 2011 census counted 546,000 people who spoke Polish as their main language in all of England and Wales. Even if every single one of them moved to Wales there would be fewer than the 560,000 Welsh speakers in Wales. | |||

Even the Nordic countries are getting into it. Not even touching the fact that we have had immigration to the British isles for the last couple of millennia. I am in awe of someone who thinks there is a pure English person anywhere in this country. | |||

"A mega structure mosque biggest in the UK, that could hold 10,000 worshippers was rejected at newhams site, the planning of it has been going on for 16 years. The reason was that they wanted to build housing there instead, the leaders of the mosque wasn't happy, but in this climate we need housing more, so I think the government did the right thing, have you heard the news and what do you think of it? It is big news here in London." They could always "re-purpose" St.Paul's Cathedral - knock the spike off the top, paint the dome a nice snot-green - job's a good 'un. | |||

You were the first person to actually write "immigrant" , his post was about a mosque in London over housing.... What's that got to do with immigrants! green arrow.... Sorry shag, I've yet to see you recently post anything serious that does not point out something on the news about asylum seekers,immigrants,Muslims... I can bet with my life id I jump on a britain first page, all I will see is putrid fuckwits posting vile comments about the 'victory'.. I even have my dad spouting the shite at me(and he's white),stories from several years ago(that pop uo claiming to be todays news)..fake documents etc etc etc about immigrants..asylum seekers..refugees.. I'm just generally sick of the fucking lot of it. . To break the cycle we firstly really need to stop lumping everything together like you've just done!. There's a huge difference between illegal immigrants, legal immigrants, asylum seekers and Muslims! What shag posted was a story about British citizens who happen to be Muslim trying to get a giant mosque through planning. If we constantly refer these stories to "immigrants"... Guess what, in the human psyche they all become one!. I don't personally like illegal immigration, it belittles the effort that genuine immigrants go through to come here. Asylum seekers have a genuine right to apply under international law, I wish this to be upheld, the best way to do this, is to stop lumping them in with illegal immigration and terrorists. If somebody posts a story about a giant mosque getting planning over local houses or vise versa, the best thing to do is point out there British citizens acting under the law like everyone else rather than shout them down as racist or xenophobic (personally I don't like giant mosques either and will argue against them just like I argue against nuclear power stations, in my mind it's something to be discouraged not encouraged)" That is right and it was all just about the planning of a mosque and as we know many like to "twist" what the real story is about | |||

"we do need more mosques and its a very strong religion and they do pay there taxes any way if new houses are bult who will get them" . Well they don't actually pay tax, places of worship are council tax void!. I think you have to wonder why any religion needs a church, mosque.. It's certainly not for prayer! | |||
