I’d love to know what this idiot thinks Britain is like… :rolleyes:

I love this phrase. It sums up so much of the majority British view of recent terrorism. “What - _another_ bombing? [Better get the kettle on](http://www.snopes.com/quotes/graphics/tea.gif).”

And I’m in South London too, so plenty of Muslims there\*. Plenty in my office, plenty at the nursery my daughter attends, plenty on the same trains and buses and trams I ride. I wonder how many Muslims **Perciful** has actually met?

\*Lately, of course, it’s been the Polish invasion in my neck of the woods. Bloody Poles, moving into our neighbourhoods with their funny-sounding names, doing competent building work and setting up delis on every corner…
