more than one way to skin the cat
I have just been reading of an email sent from a guy in Yorkshire to his friend in Birmingham,he says
I was fed up with being burgled here on a regular basis,
So i ripped out my burglar alarm system, and deregistered for neighbour hood watch ,
I have planted a Pakistan flag in each corner of my garden, and a black ISIS flag in the centre of the lawn,
i now have the Yorkshire police, national security force, M15 Mi6, watching my house 24/7,
my children are followed to school, my wife followed shopping, and i am followed to and fro work,
I have not felt so safe for years.

Re: more than one way to skin the cat
You may recall the young Pakistani girl shot by the Taliban because she wanted education for females. Evacuated to UK hospital she made a wonderful recovery. Now an advocate globaly for female Moslem education opportunities. Intervied on Oz Sunday night she was asked how is Birmingham.
