Chipping Norton mosque story – latest news

It appears that there has been whining from those who support plans for a mosque in Chipping Norton and whose plans were thwarted by a combination of a town council decision to refuse permission and an eruption of public anger after West Oxfordshire District Council overrode the refusal decision and told Chipping Norton that they had to let the plans go through.  Anger blew up at this corruption of democracy by West Oxfordshire District Council members and regrettably threats were made to the potential landlord of the premises.  Either that or there was no threat and the landlord realised that letting his premises to the local bearded savages would make him a very unpopular man about town.

The Chipping Norton Journal site said:

“More anti-Chippy drivel this time from http://www.ukasiaonline.com/news/chipping-norton-mosque-plans-scrapped-after-threats

Build a Mosque? Convert a house? Wealthy residents? Ronnie B and Keith Moon eh! Whatever they going to say next?
28 letters of objection and 2 in support and it still went through, and they wonder why someone got upset? 
I honestly don’t know what to say. Nice pic though.

Plans to build a mosque in the scenic Cotswolds market town of Chipping Norton have been scrapped after site’s landlord was threatened.

 Muslim residents in the wealthy town – whose residents include Jeremy Clarkson, Ronnie Barker and Keith Moon – had been celebrating after winning permission to convert a mews house into a permanent place of worship.The site’s 79-year-old landlord, Georg Wissinter, has now pulled out of the deal after receiving a threatening phone call.

Mr Wissinter told reporters: “Someone rang up and said if you go ahead with the mosque then it will get very hot. They were saying they would burn it down. “I have got people in the flat above [the proposed mosque]. I cannot take the risk.”

Town councilor Tahirul Hasan said a new site is now being sought.”

May I suggest that a suitable location for Cllr Hasan’s mosque would be where it would be welcomed, a place for example like Bangladesh.

“West Oxfordshire District Council, which granted planning permission for the mosque, received 28 letters of objection to the scheme and two in support, according to the Oxford Mail.
One objector reportedly said: “Chipping Norton is the quintessential English market town and as such it is attractive to tourists and visitors and most who live here. “I would wish this English character to be preserved.”

Thames Valley Police are investigating the threat to Mr Wissinter.”
So what if people object to Islam moving into their town, many people will have seen the disaster zones that the followers of Islam have made of too many British towns and cities.  Those who know and understand Islam and its history and its lack of respect for those with different beliefs, would prefer not to have Islam anywhere near them. As I said in my previous piece, I don’t condone threats to people or property, but this sort of thing will happen if the authorities continue to pander to Islamic groups, against the wishes of the general population.   People should always remember that it is NOT racist to have a go at Islam.  Islam is just an ideology and an authoritarian one like Communism or Fascism and really should be treated as such.

  1. Whatever ukasiaonline have their finger on the pulse of it’s not British popular culture – otherwise they might have noticed that Ronnie Barker and Kieth Moon are sadly former residents. Still, only 35 years out in the case of the ex-drummer.
    Heartening to see them making so much effort to fit in.

      I reckon you are right there. They’ve made so much effort to fit in they don’t know who in the mainstream culture is alive or dead.

  2. listen let me explain something there are many sects in islam such as hanifi,salafi,shia,soufi.i am a salafi.go to the internet and find out what salafi is and then you wil know that mr hasan is not a extremist.this what you are trying to approach that Muslims are terrorists however there are many sects they go fom peace full to extreme.i hate extremeists as much as you do however the facts is that in my sect we are raised to respect all religions.not kill them.saudi is a muslim country and you should know that.you let sikhs build gudwaras and hindus build temples why not us.hmm.anyway answer this why does the bible say this Why is God such a huge proponent of slavery in the Bible? Look up these Bible verses:
    – Exodus 21:20-21 – God says that it is OK to own slaves, and it is also OK to beat them.
    – Colossians 3:22-24 – Slaves need to obey their masters.

    – Ephesians 6:5 – Slaves need to obey their masters just as they would obey Christ.

    – 1 Peter 2:18 – Slaves need to obey their masters, even if their masters are harsh .
    second off all,
    Why won’t God heal amputees?
