This country fucking stinks

I'm fucked off to the hilt about reading shit like this - whatever happened to looking after number one? home soil and all that?

All it seems to me is that this country is far too fucking bothered to think about some wanker 10000 miles away in the middle of a rice field checking passports and going "oooooo, i'm offended" - what the fuck is this country coming to

Its fucking stupid, it really is!

The daft thing is, that from what ive seen most of the muslims dont actually want all this stupid fucking special treatment that the do-gooders seem to be obsessed with giving them, most of them just want to live their lives their way and let us live our lives our way

OH FFS!!!

soon being Birtish is going to become illegal in our own god damned fucking country!!!

ive been trying all day not to fucking swear, but this takes the fucking buscuit!!

Would we be offended by someone from a muslim country who comes here on a holiday wearing their clothes? of course not, we understand and respect their customs, like everyone else should respect that we may want to wear clothes that we want!!!

ARGH!!!!

Yeah, I read that in the Mail this morning..........

Funny thing is, as you say, most English muslims are actually offended that people are speaking incorrectly on their behalf........

I think we should organise a huge march to celebrate poltical correctness and then just bomb the fuckers and be done with it.

Indeed the PC brigade should rename themselves to be the "BNP marketting team" cause they do SO much good for the BNP cause with all this crap!

What's wrong with this country these days? Is there anybody with a fucking modicum of intelligence working in any of these public bureaus?

Think you've missed the point, it's not the Passport office's policy to reject photos for that reason but the post office clerk herself who thought it would be rejected...another symptom of PC scaring normal people into irrational decisions

Putting it plain and simple.

The more I read about wankers being PC like this, the more I want to live in a different country. If I had the capitol in the bank, or could raise it easily, then I would not be living in the UK -that is a fact

Other countries need not be really better. :-(


Here some stupid populists with view taken from XIXth century nationalism are governing. I really think whole civilised world is gong crazy.

If you read it properly it simply says that a post office counter staff member suggested it may offend muslims not "NO YOU CANT HAVE A PASSPORT"

Daily Mail bollocks.

Amazes me the amount of people who dont actually read an article. Just see a headline and take it as the full story.

I Agree it is stupied!!!!


BUT, it says it might affect her IF she went to muslim countrys. Hence she wouldnt be allowed in, because of their belifs. Not because it might affect muslim staff here


But i agree it is totally stupied and if she is British it shouldnt matter what she was wearing!!!! As they wear that fookin ghost outfit over here

Absolute bollocks. This is ''normal'' people taking political correctness to a place beyond sane...''I was trained to check size, but I think I'll just stick up for muslims even though I'm probably not a muslim and haven't a clue what would offend muslims anyway''.

My picture got rejected the other week as it ''was incorrect size'' I then got a 2nd opinion from the woman next to my clerk who said the size was fine..the clerk then told me that the contrasts would be wrong as the ''scanner wouldn't be high enough quality to pick out the detail''...are you telling me the passport office would charge me £51 for a passport and then use a £20 scanner? or are you just being an utter cock because you couldn't reject it on size and you really wanted to....

Bloody barmy some things
