Niqab, Kebab And Stab: Welcome To Dewsbury Theme Park
WHO dares go to Dewsbury?
Don’t rush to make a decision. When Shannon Matthews was found, and her family members arrested, police handed out leaflets telling locals not to “jump to any conclusions about people who may be involved in this inquiry”.
As if anyone would do that. Don’t be hasty. Listen to the travel advice.
The Times would like to tell you in “Dewsbury: Kidnap, lynching and a suicide” that “The savage beating to death of a 17-year-old boy was merely the latest in a grim litany of incidents in this West Yorkshire town.”
Know that: “It is fast becoming the town that dare not speak its name.”
Andrew Norfolk dares to go to (place hand over mouth) Dwsbrrryyy. “A steady rain fell on Dewsbury yesterday morning, but it would take a biblical flood to wash away the stains that discolour this once-proud Yorkshire mill town.”
Lots of animals in Dewsbury, many of them in human form, but you’d be hard pressed to find two worth saving and placing on a breeding programme to repopulate the drowned town with Noah Dewsbury.
The Dewsbury guide book says that Amar Aslam has been murdered. He was “a quiet, shy boy”, and so, one would suppose an oddity in Dewsbury.
The guide goes on to say of Dewsbury: “A kidnapped schoolgirl, a suicide bomber, the attempted lynching of a boy aged 5, the teaching assistant who refused to remove her veil, a record BNP vote . . . from Shannon Matthews to Mohammad Sidique Khan, Dewsbury was home to them all.”
Hijab, niqab, kebab and stab – Dewsbury has the lot.
But isn’t this Dewsbury, where Shannon Matthews went missing and Norfolk told us: “In Dewsbury, locals scraped together the funds to print extra copies of the small posters distributed by the police. They took them in bundles to neighbouring towns and handed them out to passers-by.”
But whatever Dewsbury does is for nought. It is the sink of all humanity. The town should be surrounded by high glass walls and we be invited to watch live or else via a live 24 hour show, with a teatime highlights package fronted by Richard & Judy.
This way the respectable middle classes get gawp at the mentally negligible, devious, murderous inhabitants and feel better about themselves…

Certainly putting itself on the map, is it something in the water, or are they aiming for the 1st prize in Ugliest town competition , something like Britain in Doom?

It is hight time the niqab was banned in this country. It is an affront to Britain and the British people. If Muslims (yes, them again) want to wear such demonstrations of sartorial lunacy, they should do so in countries where to dress like that is the order of the day.

I haven’t been to Dewsbury for some time, but used to work there & I have very fond memories of the place and the people.
All this racist muttering sounds very familiar to me - I am now living in rural, right wing, bible belt TEXAS and have to hear that kind of anti Muslim propaganda all the time. The doufous rednecks here are terrified of anyone who wears ANYTHING remotely ethnic, and it breaks my heart to hear that so many of the good folks of Blighty are so eagerly going down that same road paved by the George Bushes and religious zealots of this world.
England is a melting pot and that’s one of the reasons I miss it so much. Trust me - you wouldn’t want to live amid the racist paranoia and bullshit that is the norm here in the south of the USA. Talk about looking for Reds Under the Beds…
That’s just my opinion of course as an “outsider” in Texas and a native Yorkshire lass.

Don’t you just love the shrill offensives of the Left? ‘Quick, denounce those who criticise Islam as racists and hopefully they’ll vanish into the ether.’
A few points:
1. Do Christians in Muslim countries cause an affront to their traditions and acceptable forms of dress/behaviour? When in Rome…….comes to mind.
2. The harsh fact is that Islam is the religion of choice for the contemporary terrorist. Where a terrorist putsch in not underway, we have more insidious forms of Islamisation. Most of the trouble spots of the world involve Islam in one shape or form. Go figure!!
