I was on the BBC in the UK, debating burkas (I am against banning) but said that they are worn either to wind up IslamoSc(k)eptics or because the local Imam says so. I got the impression he was intimidated by me, not only in the debate but in reality too.

The person in the Tweet is Nicky Campbell, who is a nationally known BBC presenter. Campbell had sent him a private message over Twitter and the scumbag put it in the public domain. So ever since I have put it to Ansar on 5 occasions does your wife only speak when you give her permission. He has refused to answer the question every time. Then he blocked me.

It was spun by that leftie nutter academic, whose name escapes me at the moment.
I wonder if this is a replay of that nonsense, just with Sam as the target this time round.

I guess it’s an indication, though, of how rattled Sam’s got them; otherwise they wouldn’t resort to outright lies like this because it could so easily backfire on them.

Oh my, why would they say such things??
