'Mega Mosque' - update

[Greybeard 10]

The High Court finally put the lid on the planning application for an enlarged mosque complex on Barnsley road.

One has to wonder how the 'charity' behind this application can justify the legal costs in taking the case to the High Court. The money would surely have been better spent in improving their existing facilities.

 

Mods - you closed the existing thread.

You're right Homer's - it is a pathetic excuse.

[THE NEWCOMER 10]

Yip, you are right.

Because these threads are great for debating issues but when you start assuming where funding comes from without proof then it closes down avenues for people from all sides of the equation to have a debate.

 

As it goes I don't especially have a strong view about whether it opens or not.

[THE NEWCOMER 10]

Surely a forum is where u express opinions ?

[blusky 10]

Yes that is right. But opinions are informed assumptions are not.

 

Not picking a fight because I think forums like this when the moderators give a bit of slack are a good pressure release to voice opinions. Whatever they are.

 

If you have documented proof that is something is funded by an organisation from then say it. Otherwise don't.
