Oh, yes! That Joe Stead - what a comic! He really has me in fits when I read his funnies! Here's a side-splitter from his most recent circular -

if Muslims and non-Muslims continue to breed at the present rate then the Muslim population will eventually outstrip the non-Muslim population in Great Britain. Already at my wife's old school (a Church of England school please note) the Muslim intake of children now outstrips the non-Muslim children and as a consequence my grand-daughter Jasmine has more Muslims in her class than non Muslim; and I'm wondering, if this trend continues, just what are we going to do with all the forthcoming taxi drivers, Asian restaurateurs and corner shops?

Or perhaps it is not funny. Perhaps it is deeply offensive to British Muslims. Perhaps this sounds like it could have been lifted from an election circular for the BNP.

No, on reflection, it is unacceptable and racist.

You'll have to explain what you find "amusing" in this to me, Dick.
