BBC: Australia Muslim school rejected

The Quranic Society wanted to built a madras for 1200 students, in a town with 150 muslim families. Seems like people in Australia have more brains than Europeans do, 3200 voted against building the school, versus 100 that voted for it.

The BBC’s Nick Bryant in Sydney says Camden does not have a large Muslim population - about 150 families - so most of the pupils for the proposed school would have had to be brought in by bus from Sydney, an hour’s drive away.

Locals are pretty educated on the topic and decided to take a lesson from the current situation in London:

The loudest cheers of the night greeted a speech from a local man in his late 70s, according to the BBC’s Nick Bryant.

“Can I just say this without being racist or political?” the man said. “In 1983, in the streets of London, a parade by Muslims chanted incessantly ‘If we can take London, we can take the world’. Don’t let them take Camden.”
