The Daily Telegraph splashes today on Sayeeda Warsi's speech on Muslims and religion. We'll have to read the speech to see the details in full, but what's reported conveys the Party Chairman's long-standing views. I worked with her, and know them well.
In brief, she's right about Muslims and wrong about extremism.
She's right about Muslims because some of what's broadcast and written about them and their religion is dangerous. Try swapping the word "Muslim", when you see it in a newspaper headline with the word "Jewish".
The parallel isn't exact, but it's close enough to give pause for thought. One would have to be a Muslim oneself to know how it feels, but I've talked to enough to leave me in no doubt. [20 Jan. ConservativeHome] Read more
