Kilroy-Silk Blasts Islam Again
MEP Robert Kilroy-Silk – whose TV career was an early victim of the Islamist “that-offends-my-religion” tactic – has set himself on another collision course with some Muslim groups when he claimed on the Today programme on Monday that most religious doctrine practised in the UK’s mosques was “backward, tribal and from a medieval period”. He was commenting on reports that claimed that around 60% of mosques in the UK do not admit women at all.

Mr Kilroy-Silk replied: “Well, I wouldn’t rely on that. If you rely on that then you will be waiting for centuries because most of the religious doctrine that is practised in the mosques here is backward, tribal, from a medieval period. You can’t rely on that. I don't believe in religions. I think all religions are fairy tales, I think they are evil and I don’t think Islam is one of the better ones, so I don’t want anybody to be forced to go to a mosque. What I do want is women to be treated equally, with dignity and respect. I don’t want them to be subservient to Muslim men.”
