It must have been very difficult to be the only person on the panel with a different view to the others regarding Afghanistan. Salma held her own and I would go far as to say the best contribution on QT ever. Salma was incredible on QT last week.

I gather you haven't checked it for a while and have permitted unrestricted comments which is a bad idea. A good idea in-future, would to be to follow the lead of anti-fascist YouTube user "UK Fightback" who doesn't allow comments after the video. Sadly you always need a level of censorship, when neo-Nazis from Stormfront monitor and advise trolls to invade blogs and video sites posting deliberate hate content. YouTube is disgusting, and contains the worst racism of any internet medium. Yours Helpfully, Harry Coney Hi there, Salma,

To suggest that No2EU is responsible for the BNP victory is both sectarian and untrue (even members of the Green Party have shown this to be untrue). One can make just as strong a case for saying the Greens should have not stood and people encouraged to vote Labour and thus the BNP would not have won. The Greens were just not able to attract the votes of enougth working pople who are not attracted to their policies in large enougth numbers (no surprise there). Nick Wrack accepted the decison on the Respect NC of the North West region of Respect to back the Greens in the Euro elections (a decision made before No2EU was formed) - its in the Respect National Council minutes which i am happy to quote word for word if you wish - so please stop the lies and distortions of other socialists in Respect. Whatever our differences we need to work together to elect all our Respect candidates in the next election (and others on the Left) and attacks like this and at conference do not help - we are "coalition" are we not?

You have not answered back with a single fact and you are continuing the " I'll have the last word" pathetic psychology. This is typical of people like you, jump on the band wagon, and when time comes to reply you start making general comments...Nick Griffin was an excellent example...HOT AIR, no substance. I gave you over half a dozen solid facts and all you've come back is " My question" , "my question" over and over again. I'll give you another one.... Immigration has provided a £1,650-a-head boost to the economy over the last decade by helping British companies to grow faster, £300 of the growth in Britain's per head gross domestic product (GDP) last year was attributable to an influx of workers from overseas. It follows a steady series of increases in the previous nine years, adding up to a £1,650 rise between 1997 and 2006. Do you know what that means? I can explain in layman terms if you want.

If she is intellectually incapable of answering a simple question like: <i>In a choice between being British and being Muslim, which is your priority? Are you a Muslim first, and british second, or British First and a Muslim Second? </i> No wonder she has followers like you... Clearly you are not interested in a conversation.. Thats okay. If you ever change your mind, or Ms. Yacoob ever decides she has the intellectual and political courage to answer a very very simple question, let me know... Till then she is more than welcome to 'respect' from ignorant morons... who lack critical thinking faculties... Take care Asiaticus,

Are you a Muslim first, and british second, or

It has not been answered. You appear to misunderstand the difference between a question and a statement of fact; the one is used in communication for the purpose of enquiry, the other is used, when their is sufficient evidence to prove it as a statement of fact. I'll ask another question. Are you interested in a discussion, where you set aside your bigotry assumptions about my alleged bigotry, or does it only take one politically incorrect question, for you to give a knee jerk response, without making any enquiry into facts? Let me know if you are interested in a discussion, and I am totally willing to meet you there, and to change any of my opinions and conclusions, should you provide me with sufficient evidence justifying such changes to be required. If you are only venting your bigotry, thats okay... but I won't bother to take you serious (considering what little evidence it takes for you to draw your addiction to your bigotry conclusions upon), and shall simply let you rant.. your little bigotted tirade. No worries. Unlike many pretending liberals, I actually do endorse freedom of speech for everyone, not only those who agree with me, and including left wing bigots, pink wiing bigots, right wing bigots, black bigots, muslim bigots, etc... In fact, I don't think I ever met anyoone who wasn't a bigot, not even my African american, former muslim husband... Anyway.. rant on, if you want.. or let me know you are interested in a serious conversation and discussion about facts. Your decision... Take care I posted a question.
