Classic Daily Mail hype. I mean tripe.

Well, I'm sure we'll have a long line of people eager to revisit and re-evaluate this now they know the facts. Rather than just moving on to the next dog-whistling editorial from our so-called news media.

Credit at least to the Telegraph for reporting it properly.

It seems to be the ultimate irony that the council were actually in the process of trying to place the girl with a Muslim family who don't speak English as their first language, but they were her actual family.

This whole farce is just another example of how utterly woeful our press are, and perhaps another sign in particular of the decline of the Times as the newspaper of record. Had they waited a couple of days to ascertain the facts, then it would have been a non-story, but instead they've got the usual suspects frothing at the mouth and I would imagine many of them will miss the truth coming out.

Unlikely they will be swayed at all Steve. The op of the previous thread loves this stuff. As do too many of the right unfortunately. And it prevents sensible conversations that enable a fit for purpose system to protect vulnerable kids.

Locking down debate and providing a platform for Robinson and his ilk. This will in all likelihood have increased the anxiety for the little girl at the heart of it all, in order to let some bigots to moan that the country they inhabit in 2017 isn't Victorian England. Tossers.

So as predicted the story is at best inaccurate and at worst largely fabricated. This is pretty embarrassing for the Times but I guess when you're owned by Murdoch eventually you'll end up resorting to the lowest common denominator. What used to be a respected paper is now basically a black top tabloid rag.

It'll be interesting to see if all of those so quick to jump on the original story will come out and change their view now that more of the facts are known.

Why is it ridiculous to ban someone from something because of their beliefs? Maybe you should ponder on that one yourself for a bit and then come back to me if you're still struggling.

I'm not struggling dear, they have been brain washed, those views will be inflicted on the foster child.

You can believe that this is correct, I can believe that it is not.

I said you should ponder on it, clearly you haven't done so you've just stuck to your own belief which in its own way is as blinkered as the views you condemn.

If foster carers practice a religion it is not expected that the child does so, if the child practices a religion and the foster carer doesn't the carer is expected to support the child in practicing their religion. Being religious should have no impact on someone being able to foster, it's ridiculous to think someone should be banned from helping a child because they believe in something you don't.

Threads evolve jaykay. You don't set the rules.

Several people had moved the debate onto the type of area Tower Hamlets is. My post regarding racially motivated homophobic attacks was relevant to that debate.

I am sure you aren't trying to dismiss such vile behaviour towards the LGBT community are you?

There shouldn't be a blanket ban on people because of their political or religious beliefs. Thankfully the fostering process is quite nuanced and treats people on a case by case basis rather than taking a blunt view that all people of a certain persuasion should be barred. The key issue is how a person's beliefs might impact on their ability to meet the needs of a child who might be placed with them. I guess it might be problematic having a National Front member fostering if they genuinely believe that there ain't no black in the Union Jack as they would be unable to offer a safe, positive and nurturing environment to children of colour.

I completely agree with you regarding somebody who is a member of a neo Nazi racist party like the BNP/NF but who decides what is an acceptable/unacceptable political belief?

The reason I ask is because if this story from a few years ago
