I have to say it was very good. It actually referred to Sharia law and Islamic law (the same thing of course) and made clear that girls and women were placed under the guardianship of men, with no personal freedom. <br /><br />But of course this just shows that the BBC fully understand what Islamic law is and what it means (and no doubt understand as well what it means for, not just women, but also Christians, Jews, gays, lesbians, polytheists, atheists, artists, musicians, democrats and so on). <br /><br />So why then in virtually all the rest of the BBC's programming do they feign ignorance of what Islam really is, and what it entails, Sharia most obviously?<br /><br />It can only be a deliberate act of omission designed to fool the British public about the nature of Islam. <br /><br />This is one of the major reasons why the BBC has to be abolished or radically reformed - because they are deliberately misleading our people about Islam.

It's well worth reading the whole article.<br /><br />* The main source of the Touareg's slaves was the black sub-Saharan tribes - most of the present-day ones will have been inherited; Google photos of slaves in Niger look considerably more like Lammy than the straight-nosed Touareg/Berber type; if Lammy recognised himself in some of the faces he saw, perhaps he was looking at slaves, from whom he is descended.

If there was anything like a genuine exchange of opinion, all well and good! However, my impression is that generally speaking Brexiters do NOT think there is a huge "divide". They simply think Remainers were stamping their feet and refusing to accept the result. It was certainly not an ethnic divide. It wasn't really a political divide as it crossed most parties.<br /><br />It was in the interests of the Remainers to claim a huge divide that needed healing, just as it was in Obama's interests to claim a huge racial divide that needed healing. After a binary vote in a clear-cut referendum, "healing" could only mean moving away from the intent of the Referendum vote...The Remainer forces almost succeeded in working this strategy. It was only the obduracy of the Leave voters and the decency of a large proportion of Remain voters (who rightly valued the principles of democracy over this one vote) that avoided disaster.
