Andrew Gilligan posted a piece on me on his blog last week. It was another attempt to portray IFE as an extremist Islamist organisation which aims to take over the world and establish Shariah. It goes without saying that blog authors on Between the Lines (BtL) are responsible for what they write and blogs which appear on BtL do not necessarily represent the views of IFE, but this was completely missed by Andrew! After all Andrew is the guy who blames the IFE/LMC for speeches delivered by non IFE members, not invited by the IFE, speaking at a non IFE event.

Over at the Psychologist today web-site I came across an alarming post. Dr Satoshi Kanazawa an evolutionary psychologist, who is an Honorary Research Fellow in the Department of Psychology at University College London and Birbeck, suggests that most if not all newspapers in Britain make up news stories as they go along irrespective of their authenticity. He cites findings of the Reporters Sans Frontieres’s annual index of press freedom, the United Kingdom currently ranks 24th in the world in terms of press freedom, with the 2007 index of 8.25. In comparison, the United States ranks 48th in the world, with the 2007 index of 14.50. (The smaller the index, the freer the press.) Continue reading Watch out Gilligan’s about!

Andrew ‘I have considerable doubt as to how reliable Gilligan’s evidence really is’ Gilligan really does not like being ignored does he? Take a look at his new article in the Telegraph, he laments how no-one else is taking up his year-long project and reporting on it. Even after getting his friend Douglas ‘conditions for Muslims in Europe must be made harder across the board’ Murray to help. He accuses those who are ignoring his ‘revelations’ of being scared. Of course it would never occur to him that maybe there is absolutely nothing there other than innuendo, sensationalists dramatisation, and as we established yesterday, ‘dishonest’ methods deployed to conjure up an illusion.

After filming for nearly a year, having to rehash much of the old mumbo jumbo written about me and reading incessantly from the cesspits of the blogosphere – I am not surprised at all that Andrew Gilligan has become my biggest fan. ‘I feel like I’ve known him for ages’ says Andrew and ‘I sort of liked him, actually’.
Well Andrew I am touched, but you still have to queue in an orderly fashion mate and display some ‘Britishness’ in your character. One of those qualities would also be to not turn up uninvited to an invitation only event. You see old chap, it puts the host in an awkward position having to turn you away at the door in front of your ‘friends in the Bengali media’ and it belittles you in their eyes. It was also noticeable how none of your ‘friends in the Bengali media’ came to your aid! Continue reading Andrew Gilligan, my new fan
