    Funding the books - is that what you're worried about?

    I'm more concerned that we're funding the terrorists themselves!

    Now you're getting into my weak zone. If there's such a thing as being punctually dyslexic, then I think I am. Apostrophes are somewhat of a mystery to me. I've read Lynn Truss's book and it was helpful for a while, but fundamentally I find it tough knowing where to put the wee buggers (Commas too).

    It is bad enough this material being sold in mosque bookshops, let alone being provided free by the taxpayer. Unbelievable.
    Sometime back I also found Das Kapital in the local library. That wasn't half as bad until I also found the 'The Communist manifesto'. Looks like it calls for an outright overthorw of the current social order and bring about a classless, stateless society.

    Then in the same section there is also Mein Kampf. I am incensed that a tax payers are funding all these. Can I sign a petition please?

    On a different note - aren't you happy that you are living in such a country?
