This is where I came in, or rather where I originally fell down the rabbit hole…..it seems a lifetime ago.
Nazir Ahmed and Phillipa Curtis. Nazir on the M.1; Phillipa on the A.40. Both driving at 70 miles an hour. Both had been texting on their mobile prior to hitting a stationary car. Both crashes resulted in the death of the driver of that stationary car.
Phillipa received a 21 month sentence for causing death by dangerous driving. Vera Baird, then Solicitor-General for Nu-Labour thought that this was unduly lenient, and had asked the Court of Appeal to look again at the sentence.
Nazir received a 12 week sentence for dangerous driving… Vera Baird, then Solicitor-General for Nu-Labour, and friend of Nazir Ahmed, didn’t think that this was unduly lenient, indeed was so offended by my drawing a parallel between these two cases that she descended on my humble and very new blog to spout out in his defence. It caused a minor stir in blogland at the time…
In the event, Nazir was out of prison in a record 16 days - because being in prison ‘would hinder Lord Ahmed’s work building bridges between the Muslim world and others’. We will never know what Phillipa’s time in prison would hinder, no one was interested…
He was suspended by the Labour party for every one of those 16 days – but reinstated on his release.
We do know, however, much of Nazir’s work building bridges ‘between the Muslim world and others’. That same year that he demanded to be freed to continue ‘building bridges’, he was claiming that Jewish student groups were actively recruiting young British volunteers to fight in Gaza with the Israeli army and called for them to be prosecuted for war crimes on their return to the UK. There has been no call by Nazir for young British Muslims fighting abroad to be prosecuted for war crimes on their return to the UK.
He does have a bit of a ‘thing’ about war crimes. He was suspended by the Labour party again in 2012 for allegedly calling for a ‘bounty’ on the head of George Bush and Barack Obama as war criminals. He was reinstated after it was found that ‘all’ he had said was:
“Even if I have to beg I am willing to raise and offer £10m so that George W Bush and Tony Blair can be brought to the International Court of Justice on war crimes charges”.
Please note that I am therefore positively NOT calling for a bounty on Nazir Ahmed’s head when I say that I am willing to raise money so that he can be bought to trial for his latest attempts to build bridges between the Muslim world and others…..
He has been suspended by the Labour party yet again today for remarks he made in Urdu in Pakistan (his birthplace) last year. He had apparently overlooked the fact that Ed Miliband may be a dyed in the wool Marxist, but he is also Jewish…
He claimed in that speech that his derisory 16 days in prison was as a result of a Jewish conspiracy. The original District Judge had actually referred his case to the Crown Court because he felt that his maximum available sentencing powers of six months were insufficient under the circumstances and the Crown Court was able to pass sentence of up to two years for the same offence. Please note that Nazir had pleaded guilty to the charge of dangerous driving.
Inside Nazir’s conspiratorial mind, the fact that the Crown Court Judge, Mr Justice Wilkie, only gave him one sixth of the available sentence, was not evidence of leniency beyond belief, and precisely half of the sentence that the magistrate thought insufficient, but of ‘pressure brought to bear by Jewish owners of newspapers and television channels placed pressure on the courts to punish him more severely than was warranted by his offence’.
The proof of this Jewish conspiracy appears to be that Mr Justice Wilkie ‘was sent from London’ to carry out this sentence, since ‘no Crown Court judge, circuit judge or Recorder would agree to deliver his punishment’. That’s odd in itself, since Mr Justice Wilkie was the Presiding Judge of the north-eastern circuit (which includes Sheffield Crown Court) at the time and absolutely the right person to have heard his case…
He also claimed that his conviction ‘was overturned’ – no it wasn’t. The appeal court made a point of saying that the prison sentence was justified and that there should not be “one law for the rich and powerful and one law for the rest”. They did agree to suspend the sentence so he could carry out his essential work of ‘building bridges between the Muslim world and others’. ‘Others’ obviously doesn’t include the Jewish community.
Nazir Ahmed was a humble shopkeeper in Rotherham, who had stood for parliament as an MP – and failed. Tony Blair made him a Life Peer to save him the trouble of getting elected…had he made his inflammatory anti-Semitic remarks in the UK, he might have been prosecuted under the Public Order Act 1986.
As it is, he is now a Life Peer of the noble House of Lords, and we mugs have to work to support his habit of traveling back to Pakistan to rail against ‘Jewish conspiracies’ which resulted in him spending all of 16 days in prison.
The Public Order Act 1986 doesn’t extend to offences occurring outside of the UK. Nor do we seem to have any way of ridding ourselves of this loathsome Peer. Piece of luck eh Ahmed?
Since I am also out of the UK – the Public Order Act 1986 doesn’t apply to me either. Ahmed is a rancid little racist, a member of the worst conspiracy to ever visit itself on the UK.
Ms Raccoon lives in the Monbazillac area of South West France, renowned for its fine wines and gourmet food, so she frequently finds better things to do than sit in front of a computer all morning. She is liable to take off traveling at a moment's notice. Consequently this blog only gets updated these days when it is raining - and it doesn't rain very often round here...

At least people who rant about zionist conspiracy to impose world government credit Jewish people with ambition and competence. To assert that there is a malicious Jewish conspiracy and imply that all it is capable of is giving one a fortnight in the slammer is downright insulting.
I think all these conspiracies can be traced back to the global tinfoil makers wanting to increase sales of their product. It has got to be true because I can’t find any evidence for it on the interweb – they are so powerful and clever that every web page is checked all the time and any containing the secret are edited.

XX being in prison ‘would hinder Lord Ahmed’s work building bridges between the Muslim world and others’XX
I can see their point.
After all, in prison, how would he meet any NON muslims??
That is funny. Although it really shouldn’t be.
Why “Shouldn’t be”?
80 to 90% of the prison population of Berlin, and many other large citys, are muslim.
True. They said it them selves when demanding their own chaplain, due to the “high numbers of muslims in the system.”
(THAT is how one drops a bollock in STYLE. I would have said.)
It may be but that isn’t true of Britain. A bit over 12% of British prisoners are Muslims.
Their numbers in young offenders institutes have risen to 21%, though, so that number could rise.
The average for the whole of North Western Europe is 80%. So how come Britain is so different?
Scared of locking them up in case you get accused of waicism or something?
Not so many years ago Muslim families were being complimented in the Daily Mail for being the last “traditionally British” sorts of families. Couples who stayed together and looked after their kids and told the way to behave and live their lives. Very “fifties”, if you like.
I think in Germany you have a high population of Turkish people (Muslim). Your comments in Britain could be reinterpreted as “black” here I would imagine, and the social reasons would be the same – poor and living in ghettoes and slipping into crime because……….. much like the Italians and the Irish in America a few generations ago I suppose.
I am willing to suspend judgement about the latest story on this man until what he really said on the radio broadcast is made clear. Some pertinent details about the crash Nazir was involved appear to have been left out of your account, which may explain why he received a lower sentence than the woman in the other crash.
Nothing has ben left out – Nazir was charged with ‘dangerous driving’ – Phillipa was charged with ‘causing death by dangerous driving’ – a far more serious charge, even though both actions resulted in the death of someone. Nazir was able to prove that he had stopped texting in the minute or minute and half before collision – therefore no direct causation. I’m sure that will have been a comfort to the family of his victim. There wasn’t the same intense forensic attention to precisely when Phillipa had ceased texting before her accident.
This link may be of interest regarding when Ms Curtis ceased texting before her accident:
http://www.mackssolicitors.co.uk/compensation-claims/road-traffic-accident/car-crash-driver-jailed-for-texting.html
No causal link could be found between the noble Lord’s texting and his collision.
Dangerous driving is defined as driving in a way which was far below the standard that can be expected of a competent and careful driver and:
that it would be obvious to a competent and careful driver that driving in that way would be dangerous; or
that it would be obvious to a competent and careful driver that driving your vehicle in its state would be dangerous.
Causing death by dangerous driving is committed when the driving of the accused was a cause of the death of another person and the driving was dangerous within the meaning of dangerous driving.
According to a BBC report about Lord Ahmed’s collision with Martyn Gombar’s Audi:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/south_yorkshire/7909510.stm
“One motorist had already clipped his car and another had to take evasive action to avoid it”. It is possible to drive competently and still collide with a vehicle.
Ms Curtis served six months of her sentence:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/moslive/article-1290648/Caution-Text-driver-ahead-How-texting-driving-ended-tragic-consequences-girl.html
And don’t forget the old legal chain of causation, substantial, operative, R v Dalloway 1847 and all that stuff.
I never knew anything about this, so now I am appalled. What a fat slug. And Nazir Ahmed ain’t looking good either, running off to Pakistan to stir up the hatred, as though there isn’t enough of that already.
What a sad state of affairs that you have to leave the once Great Britain before you dare to express an opinion about a couple of scum bags.
Superb Anna! *Applause* I would like to add a rant, but might get in some hot water.
In case Vera’s google antennae are still twitching…

… sorry it’s the D Tel, but there’s not much choice amongst those with more readers than you can shake a stick at.
Doesn’t it seem we were better off with the hereditories? they cost a lot less and didn’t owe allegience to current politicians. Many of the newly sppointed ones are dire.
In a word, yes.
and didn’t owe allegience to current politicians
And that is the reason they were thrown out, and also why the limp-dims are trying to push for an elected upper house.
To answer your question, yes we would be because they would slow down the stupidity of the HoC by actually reading the garbage that the ministers produce as legislation.
I kept thinking I was reading Nazi and not Nazir. He sounds like an odious worm either way.
Look at it as Nazi-r, similar to Ass-ange…
Hth?
No doubt this odious little slug will declare himself Imam and call down a Fatwa upon his critics. Is there not a case for impeachment? The list is growing…
Didn’t you know? EVERYTHING is a Jewish conspiracy! Typical response from certain ‘communities’.
@ Poor? Except for their top of the range BMWs and Mercedes, and more gold around their necks @
Are the gold-laden the ones in prison though, or the successful ones who are running their own businesses etc.
@ Stuff the bastards. Pack them all on planes, and drop them off back home. @
In our case that would be Battersea, Balham and Brixton……….
Here’s the stats on religion from the UK.
http://www.brin.ac.uk/wp-content/images/Prisoners3.jpg
As you can see the Muslim rate is climbing.
In terms of political correctness it is annoying that they seem to have inserted an “All Christian” line, just to make sure it’s not so clear that the biggest single grouping seems to now be those with no religious affiliation at all….
XX Are the gold-laden the ones in prison though, or the successful ones who are running their own businesses etc. XX
It is them ALL… under, na, say 30 years old. Which in themselves, are the greatest number of prisoners, so….
As to “Unemployed”. Not ONE of them does not have SOME kind of “job” with the family. Whether it be a Kabab flinger, or Daddys drugs runner, they are ALL working in one way or another.
XX In our case that would be Battersea, Balham and Brixton……….

THEIR home, I mean. And “being born here” does NOT qualify!
XX poor and living in ghettoes and slipping into crime becauseXX
Bollox!
1/ NO one FORCED them to live in ghettos. It is not bloody Warsaw in 1942!
2/ Poor? Except for their top of the range BMWs and Mercedes, and more gold around their necks than the whole Southern American land mass, before Columbus., you mean? (And THATs only the “men”!)
3/ What the HEL has “poor” to do with crime??
Crime is crime. NO excuse, and NO mitgation! The dictatorship are giving enough of MY money to these bastards to ensure they actualy get more than I do from my bloody JOB!
Stuff the bastards. Pack them all on planes, and drop them off back home.
