Greeting all, what would you say if there was only one flat rate tax and it was only around 1-2.5% on wealth and was used primarily to serve those in need of a leg up. All other forms of taxation was abolished.
@ZabAkbar Don't wanna be Debbie downer. But is this not like a Nikah upon a Nikah?
Isnt this concerning?
(Muslims already have a pact through shahadah)
Right-wingers should stop hate-mongering Muslims and direct their frustrations to their governments alone.
Muslims came to the west with a promise of religious freedom etc. If that's not what the west wants anymore, figure that out amongst yourselves, then give a fair resolution to the Muslims who uprooted their family's lives at your invitation (a reasonable timeline for remigration, financial support for resettlement, etc).
ONE TAPE NOBODY WANTED TO WATCH
In 2008 a teenage girl in Rochdale told police she had been ra*ed. The Crown Prosecution Service @CPSUK watched hours of her taped testimony, had DNA evidence, and decided a jury would not find her credible. They dropped the case.
While that was happening, an NHS sexual health worker named Sara Rowbotham was doing the opposite of nothing.
Between 2004 and 2011 she sent 181 referrals to police and social services flagging the exploitation of girls in the area. Nobody acted on them.
In 2014, 2 years after 9 men went to prison off the back of this, the council made her redundant.
In 2011 a new chief prosecutor landed in the job. Nazir Afzal @nazirafzal pulled up the same interview tape everyone else had ignored.
Partway through the girl's testimony, the officer interviewing her yawned. Afzal reversed the CPS decision within days.
9 men were convicted in 2012. Years later a second, entirely separate Rochdale network surfaced, different girls, different men, decades of abuse nobody caught the first time round.
Its ringleader Mohammed Zahid got 35 years in October 2025. Same town, 2 rings, both missed for over a decade.
Afzal didn't stop there. He prosecuted @BBCNews presenter Stuart Hall for decades of child abuse. Then he turned on the Metropolitan Police, who have declined to investigate allegations involving Prince Andrew 3 separate times, in 2015, 2021 and again in December 2025.
He told @Channel4News "I can't think of any other reason" why the Met wouldn't investigate. For saying that out loud he got death threats.
The English Defence League camped outside his house demanding he be deported. He was born in Birmingham.
The CPS let him go in 2015. Their official line was efficiency savings.
So here's the scoreboard. The woman who spent a decade raising the alarm lost her job. The man who finally acted on it lost his job too.
The force that spent a decade finding reasons not to look at a prince kept theirs intact.
Nobody who behaved badly in this story paid for it. Everybody who did the right thing did.

Absolutely disgusting terrorist atrocities committed by israel and America confirmed by Max Blumenthal.
They intentionally bombed hospitals, destroying an ICU unit and IVF clinic as well as sports stadiums.
Don’t ever come at me about Iran again!
This is why it’s important to ground oneself on solid principles and ideals that transcends what the self wants, and gravitates to what is right. This is the meaning of what has been narrated from the prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم:
“None of you truly believe (a complete Eemaan) until your desires are in line with what I have brought”
Often we lean towards what we like, & cognitive dissonance convinces us of what’s convenient, & we lead ourselves astray. A reflection of the soul is in the saying of Allaah:
“Fighting is ordained for you though you dislike it, & it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you & that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know.
Al-Baqarah: 216
There are & will be many aspects of Islam that one may struggle with…
@MBitcoiner Fatwa for haram bitcoin came faster than the one needed for Muslims army's to stop the genocide.
What a horrendous class of clergy that exist today.
The greatest wealth isn't the Bitcoin in your wallet, but the quality & sincerity of your character. Focus on perfecting your intentions in every small action. Salaah with khushoo, a smile to someone who is clearly sad, or honest halal Ribaa free work. These deeds are heavy.
