Are the Grooming Gangs a Muslim Phenomenon? Fri Nov 21, 2025 15:00 | Mark Durie
First they were 'Asian' grooming gangs, then 'Pakistani'. But the most important thing to grasp is that almost all of them ? 87% of convictions ? are Muslim, says Mark Durie. This must not be covered up.

RBS men don't wear Plaid
http://paulmason.typepad.com/newsnig8t/2005/06/rbs_men_dont_we.html
Edinburgh police are advising workers to "dress down" during the week of the G8 to avoid getting into trouble with protesters, according to Personnel Today. Apparently Royal Bank of Scotland has advised its employees not to wear their blue tartan uniforms either...
[....]
Those going to Edinburgh have to be careful they don't dress down so much that the police begin to take an interest - after all, according to one purported police blog [*below] , they have their own formula for spotting troublemakers. However this is quite hard to do: when I worked in publishing, our ad managers would have special, awful jeans and sweatshirts to wear on "awaydays", always perfectly ironed, which always made them look, frankly, daft.

Big shout out to all the guys’n gals goin’ up to Gleneagles for the G8… RESPECT!
http://coppersblog.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_coppersblog_archive.html#111805219503799562
here’s Coppersblog’s guide for dealing with the protesters:
1. Indentify your protester using the (confusing, police-style) mnemonic below:
B-alding
P-ony tail
S-andals
O-xfam clothes
G-etting on a bit
A-cting like a twat
2. Remember, they may look confident, but they’re really nervous on the inside. If you’re not sure, just bluff the law (the mnemonic has finished now).
3. Take the little bars of soap and bottles of shampoo from the hotel and throw them at the protesters. They’ll love the irony.
4. Use the phrase “I’m only following orders.” As often as possible. This will have the effect of calming the protesters, like a beekeeper approaching a hive with his smoke generator (that’s what I call an analogy).
5. If anyone asks, say you’re from the Met, and all you know is that you’re there to protect George Bush.
6. Remember, they are struggling for justice while you are on time and a half for 16 hours a day. Many of you will be on rest day rate, many of them are on the dole. You are being put up in hotels while they will be sleeping in their own (not inconsiderable) filth. Take heart and think about your next payslip!
