Can anyone explain the context of this ?

[Eric Mc]

Why not?

[anonymous-user]

Why not what?

[Eric Mc]

Was he not speaking to a Muslim audience and extolling them to particpate in mainstream politics ?

Problem?

[mxspyder]

Why not what he's saying?

Having a parliament made up from men and women from different cultural background is a good way to try and prevent the them and us mentality.

If people aren't part of a society, how can we expect them to respect it?

It would appear so , they already do anyway.

I was merely asking when and where this was

it seems to me to be just vote winning cringyness ?

Don't see anything unusual except an attempt to broaden democracy from an MP.

It is vote-winning cringyness. It was a speech given in 2008 at the “Global Justice and Unity event”.

I was merely asking when and where this was - "WTF" seems a funny way to ask

it seems to me to be just vote winning cringyness ? - He's an MP, its his job.

Don't start what you think is a "reasonable" question with "WTF" then. Keep your "WTFs for things that REALLY annoy you. Otherwise, the expression loses its effectiveness or can be misinterpreted.

Sorry Eric, please send me the PH handbook, rather than making underhand quips

[Eric Mc]

Underhand?
Moi?

I am the most overhand person I know.
