About me

Gender Male
Industry Non-Profit
Location United Kingdom
Introduction White British male. 3/4 English, 1/4 Scottish. Convert from Anglican Christianity to Sunni Islam. Strong belief in social justice. Generally tolerant and open-minded. Intolerant of idiocy, hypocrisy, bigotry, and injustice. Against big-government and big-business as they distort markets. Most at home with right-of-centre politics based on pragmatism rather than ideology. Studied Classics at Oxford Uni. ("Literae Humaniores" as they call it there.) Is a traditionalist in believing that Islam is as fine as it's always been. Is a maverick in thinking that interpretations of Islam for different cultures and times are unsuitable for modern Britain. Oh, and I have a nice smile :)

The children are waiting! Please tell them the story about the bald frog with the wig:

So, kids. You wanna hear this, huh? Well let's explore the backstory first... When the frog was a tadpole, it brutally ate its own siblings alive. Or shall we move onto the wig made from real human hair. Did it come from cadavers? Or was it painfully snatched from desperate people caught in the poverty trap? Still wanna hear? No? Good.
