what are they supposed to look out for, young men holding hands? That's half of the Arab population!
Sounds like a good start to me!
Dare I make the obvious comparison with Section 28?
What is the current gay car? In the 70s it was the Fiat X1/9, in the 80s it was the MR2, in the 90s it was the BMX Z3. What is it now? They could just arrest all the drivers of those on a charge of "driving a gay car in a public place".
Where did Michael Jackson hide away from the media?
Er, Bahrain actually.
I wont be asking for a short back and sides there then!!!!
I cannot see why Iain finds this so funny. The original news report is here:

Change "homosexuals" to "Jews" and you get:
"The government of Bahrain is taking action to stamp out Jews in the country. In a wide ranging set of proposals MPs have set out a number of initiatives designed to rid the country of Jews. Parliament also demanded that the Interior Ministry stop granting any residence permits to foreign Jews. MPs have called for a study into how widespread Judaism is in Bahrain... The proposal will instruct teachers to look out for Jewish tendencies in children and to "punish them accordingly"."
Remind you of anything?
dozzy, if you change 'jew' to 'palestinian' in your example, you actually get the situation that is happening in israel RIGHT NOW!!!
I'm reminded of that literary masterpiece, the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy. The Golgafrinchans round up their hairdressers, telephone sanitisers, advertising executives, etc. and stick them on a spaceship pre-programmed to crash into prehistoric earth. The entire population of the Golgafrinchan planet is subsequently wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from dirty telephones.
I'm not saying the population of Bahrain will die from having long hair but it made me smile.
