The father, groom and bride were happy to have a segregated wedding, the people were, there were also other non-Muslims in the wedding venue of which they had their wife's and husbands who are civilised and have great respect to Muslims who could at least obey the fact that it is segregated why could JIM FITZPATRICK not do that?

I’m afraid the link can’t be found at the moment though: ““After reporting for the Cambridge Evening News in 1994 and 1995, he left university without completing his degree when offered a job on the Sunday Telegraph’s foreign desk. There he quickly earned the nickname “Gilligoon” for his awkward if obsessive manner. He gained a reputation for keeping unconventional hours, often going missing for a day or two. “He was popular if a little nerdy,” said Mark Palmer, the newspaper’s former news editor. Colleagues there cannot recall him mentioning a love life. Some colleagues were concerned about Gilligan’s lack of formal training, but he won respect for bringing in stories that made waves. His persistence, even obstinacy, marked him out. His work attracted complaints from organisations ranging from the General Defence Manufacturers’ Association to the British Beekeepers’ Association. “You slightly raised your eyebrows at times, wondering if things were really true,” Palmer said. “He liked to sail close to the wind and it didn’t surprise me later that he had ratcheted his dossier story up a bit.” Here’s an interesting profile of Gilligan, apparently from the Evening Standard before he got a job there.

I hope that after the overwhelming response from individuals across the social spectrum, Mr Gilligan goes into exile from the circus that classes itself as journalism. I saw Andrew the other day, and what a sight! His face was swollen ravaged by loneliness, self-loathing and defeat. His reputation, credibility now on the brink of saturation, the icing on this cake would be he comes to the realisation that he’s opened up a can of worms, finally in the cold midst of his bed he wakes up from this nightmare, stammering those immortal words ‘what have I done?’ Well Azad I guess you had a lucky escape there, God (Allah swt) knows what emphasis he would’ve placed had the initial interview gone through.

Washing the Old Habit On a media soap box stands a once defrocked preacher, delivering a dogma of fear. The whole hidden camera shenanigans I found somewhat disturbing.

Knowing nothing about any of this until I saw the program tonight I can say that I do not know the truth of this matter (if there is a matter at all) but I do know that by presenting his beliefs in this manner, Gilligan has cast himself in a very shady light. Combined with his deeply dented reporting credentials, Gilligans obvious attack on the IFE without sound facts to support his case leaves me very sceptical.

Washing the Old Habit

On a media
soap box stands a once
defrocked preacher,
delivering a
dogma of fear.

The whole hidden camera shenanigans I found somewhat disturbing. They presented nothing that was revealing and came across as a voyeurs failed attempt to secretly catch something perverted.

Fear of the Voyeur

Beastie in the shadows
hidden with his camera
filming for his pleasure
those he’d like to fuck.
