"although there is is, of course, the Motor-Cycle Crash Helmets (Religious Exemption) Act 1976, Section 2A which exempts any follower of the Sikh religion while he is wearing a turban from having to wear a crash helmet." (IB)...then that's one relatively minor example of the problems of multicultural states...I wonder if any non-Sikh bikers here who'd rather take the risk have complained? And here's one present regulation, for what it's worth, that I'm actually against - the way I see it, not wearing a helmet is only increasing the chance of injury to the biker not others, so it should be up to the individual. (The rest from you I've answered so many times before.)

"Then why is it wrong for someone to emigrate in search of a job to support his family?" (Volgadon)...I just gave one reason - all the capitalist/economic immigration/emigration of the last century hasn't solved the rotten inequality in the world - WE NEED "GLOBAL REGULATIONISM" (poem above or directly here) for that.
"And again - "there AREN'T any neighbouring countries with this sort of refugee problem, so England won't have to be soiled by any asylum seekers! That is, unless there are some from Iceland, as I assume he would guide the French to Spain or Germany."
Was there any point you were trying to make by quoting me?" (Volgadon)...there has been and there could be, yes?


"The Normans, your ancestors, were some of the biggest imperialists and capitalist immigrants the world has known." (Volgadon) whether or not I have Norman ancestry, I've said I hate imperialism - be it Nazi, Victorian, OR ANY OTHER.
