@TinyTon_e @stellacreasy @AdamPollock It's completely different. People target the area outside the hospital to protest abortion. If you specifically pray in that spot and won't move down the street you know what you are doing and it's intimidation.

@ViolaAppleton6 @stellacreasy @AdamPollock It’s not a protest, it’s praying in public, which you admit can be considered intimidation. The test is whether a complainant felt they were intimidated by current standards, not the intent of the person praying. Therefore, anyone who felt intimidated had a valid point.

Buffer zones don't ban prayer. They uphold the privacy of women having an abortion. If prayer was banned in public then no one could do it. Those getting upset about iftars in public seem to want to agree there's a 'time and place' for everything. Hyperbole and hypocrisy do not for reasoned debate make.

I mean, she did. Whatever her reasons she did do that. Creasy can’t then argue others having an issue with public prayer are more suspect than her. But some religions are more readily attacked by MPs than others & for some inexplicable reason that includes our state religion.

@ViolaAppleton6 @stellacreasy @AdamPollock So people have valid concerns about the Trafalgar Square mass prayer then? They must be valid if the perceived intimidation is based on the views of those who feel intimidated.

@doglovesbiscuit @phillipsc Because that is specifically a place of memorial...a road outside a hospital isn't. They can stand anywhere else around the hospital.

@ViolaAppleton6 @phillipsc Why do people stand at graves or memorial sites ? While their prayers can be heard anywhere, it is a human condition to be drawn to places of sadness and suffering.

“Buffer zones don’t ban prayer”. You’re literally banned from praying in them. That is the whole point.

By all means boycott Cadbury, and others, because of their use of palm oil in ‘milk’ chocolate, it hurts dairy farmers, drives deforestation and gives a lower quality product. But if you’re peddling the racist ‘Easter is banned’ nonsense’, then do be quiet theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

@Gc400m @BBCNews And then the cafes go out of business. The point is people on middle income should be able to afford to go out for lunch.

@PaulShack56 @BBCNews Whole point of the article is that normal things are becoming too expensive. A family should be able to afford a meal out. We hardly eat out now because I just don't want to spend £50 on 2 mains and 2 drinks. Starters £10 and £9 glass of wine. It's mental.

@BBCNews If they have the £174 Pizza Express meal once a month and instead made the same at home for £44 and put the saving of £130 per month into an ISA after 10 years they'd be sat on £20,000. 20 grand for implementing a slight change of behaviour.

@phillipsc If buffer zones don't ban prayer, then why have lone women been arrested for silent prayer ?

@phillipsc @OliverKamm But it's not the praying that is banned, it's the intimidation & harassment. If you refuse to pray elsewhere it really isn't about you praying is it.

@OliverKamm My point was not about the effectiveness of prayer, which is valid wherever it is offered. I was observing that prayer within buffer zones is banned, and Stella knows it.

@AdamPollock @NarcAware They can silently pray elsewhere, or they can walk through the area and pray. Actively choosing to stand in that spot to 'pray' is choosing to be visible/intimate people accessing health services. Intimidation is the issue, not the praying.

Complains about me not explaining my points, and then turns her replies off. Great work, Stella.

It’s not a ban on prayer. It’s a ban on protest and all the behaviours associated with wanting to invade the privacy of a woman having an abortion. I note this person still refuses to explain why being asked to pray 150m away to balance that right is somehow stopping prayer. Unless this isn’t about prayer at all.

@stellacreasy @AdamPollock So I'm not banned from going into the buffer zone as long as I don't pray. Sounds like the activity being banned is the prayer Are you really such a retard or do you just play one on the interweb?

@IVORMECTIN4 @Heccles94 What are you on about. Easter and Christmas are not being removed at all. If anything it's getting bigger because shops like making money.

@Heccles94 The window adverts do not say Easter though, and some eggs do not either. That is not the point pal, the point is the slow but deliberate removal of all Christian based culture and laws. This will continue until the new owners have installed their medieval laws; good luck & enjoy

Imagine getting annoyed that Easter eggs don’t say Easter on them, when in fact they say Easter on them. It’s really not normal.

@_mtf_ @zeynepmyenisey Because it's more helpful to change your lifestyle than to diet and go back to normal eating again. If someone feels the need to snack it's easier to include healthy snacks than avoid forever.
