What do you read into it?Originally posted by original PM View PostSapnara is a practising Muslim.
Read into that what you will.
I read that a judge did their job and delivered a judgement in the best interests of the child, based on knowing the full facts of the case and not just a few headlines."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

As I said earlier in the post this is just a one off which got picked up by the media.
As long as the child is okay that's all that really matters.Comment

Yes, they and their readers like to have the hatred ramped up to 11.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostThe Daily Mail and how they originally reported the story, picture on left and picture on right shows how they followed it up. Spot the difference?

Sure, talk about it, but don't hide from the bits that challenge your beliefs.Originally posted by original PM View Post
You know, like the part where the story claimed the Muslim family didn't speak English, which in some people's eyes was a disgrace (whether true or not), but when the child is then sent to live with their grandmother (who doesn't speak English) and who takes the child out of the UK, well that's no issue at all.

And the aftermath
Times distorted Muslim foster case, regulator finds - BBC News
The press regulator has ruled the Times "distorted" its coverage of a five-year-old Christian girl who was placed with Muslim foster carers.
The newspaper ran three front-page stories in August 2017 after the girl was removed from her mother's care by Tower Hamlets council in east London.
It said foster carers stopped her eating bacon, confused her by speaking Arabic, and removed a crucifix.
A Times executive acknowledged the story caused "enormous offence"."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
