A Daily Star ‘article’ claims that Rochdale Council has wasted ‘taxpayers’ money’ on ‘Muslim-only’ public toilets, and that the ‘community’ are ‘furious’.
Idea was just toilet
Daily Star, 22 July 2010
Fuming town hall officials are to block Muslim-only toilets in a shopping centre. The Exchange in Rochdale caused fury by installing the awkward Islamic hover-and-hope squatting loos.
Bosses believed they benefit the community. How wrong they are. Even leading Muslims have been lining up to mock this ridiculous politically-correct exercise. They agree the hole-in-the-floor toilets are “divisive” and will only provoke anger.
Asian councillor Farooq Ahmed, who represents thousands of local people, said: “They’re an embarrassment and cause tension.” Correct.
Britain does a marvellous job in encouraging tolerance of a wide range of racial and religious beliefs. But wasting public money on stupid ideas like this cannot be allowed. The idiots behind these toilets must be flushed out of office.

The Daily Star: Capable of blocking toilets
By Angry Mob, 22 July 2010
A dose of Youtube can sometimes be just as nauseating as browsing the Daily Mail website; and in many ways it is actually worse because Youtube is the place where all the tabloid reading dullards pick up a video camera and film themselves regurgitating their confused interpretation of the world around them. They are the sort of people who buy the Daily Star because they think it is a newspaper. They probably believed that councils were building hole-in-the-ground toilets WITH THEIR MONEY just for EVIL MUSLIMS to use, even though as pointed out by Jamie over at exclarotive the entire story was a complete lie: firstly, it was a privately run shopping centre and nothing to do with the council and secondly the toilets were not just for Muslims.
The trouble is with these stories is that although they are complete rubbish they have already been committed to paper and imprinted on the minds of the absolute simpletons who stare vacantly into a camera and claim that Britain is losing a war against immigrants imposing their culture and laws on us. The sad thing is almost their entire evidence base for these assertions is the absolute drivel printed by tabloid newspapers. People will now seriously believe that local councils are so scared of Muslims that they are using TAXPAYERS’ money to build them special toilets that only they are allowed to use.
Naturally the council responded and pointed out that ‘the installation of a particular type of toilet at the Rochdale Exchange shopping centre has had nothing whatsoever to do with the council’. But of course this will not ever be reported in the Daily Star, so the original front page will still be true:
Muslim-only public loos
And the Daily Star can then follow it up with another lie that makes it seem as if the original story was genuine:
Daily Star blocks Muslim-only loos!
The amount of excrement printed by the Daily Star is enough to block any toilet, although in this case the ‘blockage’ is rather uncertain as Jamie points out:
There never were going to be Muslim-only toilets, so they can’t be ‘blocked’. Even if you ignore the ‘Muslim-only’ bit, the article only says the toilets are being reconsidered – and that’s from an anonymous source who’s in neither the Manchester nor Rochdale local papers.
All in all, another Daily Star front page that is a complete lie and the PCC have never so much as raised an eyebrow, let alone got the brush out and forced this vile shit firmly around the u-bend.
