I was watching the news report on the BBC's six o'clock news, about introducing British Values classes into schools, which is explained in this article but not as well as they did it on the TV, mainly because they couldn't get across the feeling of the school children who were interveiwed for the report. I mention it here, because the kids that were interviewed all came down on the same side, that side being I don't see that there is any problem with being Muslim and British. I'm proud to be British.
Having never been a controversial person all my life (being a female, white, C of E, Brit is rather boring and non-controversial after all...) I can't claim to understand what Muslim teenagers must go through, however I think that the above is a brilliant way of looking at things.
Argh. I apologise if the above doesn't make any sense, but it's mainly me just trying to write down my thoughts, rather than... trying to write a coherent article.
