It's not good work because it's business as usual.

Waiting for the first complaint of 'they wouldn't say if it was Christian owned so why mention that it's Muslim owned'
Quote:
Plenty of people and businesses and churches and restaurants do charitable works at Christmas and offer free food or lodging to the homeless.
So why is this particular restaurant worthy of national newspaper coverage? Surely the local paper would be sufficient so locals who might be in need know about it Quote:
Well done, first prize!

Neither do Jews, Buddhists, Hindu's, Jehovahs Witness and many other faiths.
Far from Christmas being an 'inconvenience' at least the people in the op's link are doing something constructive and charitable to help homeless people. What will you be doing to help them? Quote:
Yes, the liberal media would have you believe this is a getsure of good will however, they ignore the fact that:
1) Muslims don't celebrate Christmas therefore Christmas day is an inconvenience for them. So they are lucky to have lonely and vulnerable people who have nowhere else to go. 2) Lonely and vulnerable people can be more easily converted to Islam. |

So instead of saying you were tired of hearing about Islam you posted a nasty post insinuating that vulnerable people may be radicalised at this restaurant.

What he was suggesting is that they may be more susceptible to being converted to the faith, not radicalised.

The poster said or suggested nothing about radicalisation, why have you made that up?

They said insinuation, which was the obvious inference from his post, or why else would he mention it?
![]() The insinuation was simply that lonely and vulnerable folk might find themselves being proselytised to, much like the Jehovies do to lonely people, but that doesn't by itself suggest radicalisation, which is something else entirely to my mind. |

(Also that 'I can help you' line is not something I've heard anyone quote outside of me and my brother. This makes me very happy). |

I have a BTILC bestie too who I can exchange all the lines with.
It's like a line for the Big Trouble connoisseur. But that's how it always begins; very small. |

Strange Christmas dinner you must have if you think bacon butties would be on the menu.
But hey kudos to you for trying so hard to find something negative and spiteful to say. The spirit of Christmas still has further to travel. |

Wow! I cannot believe the cynicism in this thread. Seriously some of you people need to get out of the house more. I got a free meal in my local Indian restaurant recently as part of an anniversary celebration. There wasn't a burka in sight, no-one tried to convert me to Islam, and it wasn't a marketing ploy, because they're already well-known locally and have no need of more customers. They just wanted to celebrate their success and give something back to the community.
By the way, plenty of people enjoy going for an Indian meal on Christmas Day. And plenty of British Muslims appreciate and celebrate Christmas. |

They usually give food away for nothing?
Many Turkish restaurants actually do usually give food/drink away for nothing. You will often find they serve huge portions, give free baklava after your meal, also the offer of Turkish tea without charge. They are also happy to serve tap water rather than force you to buy mineral water. Furthermore, as they serve huge portions, they are happy to give extra plates to someone who hasn't ordered to share the one portion... |

In fact you hardly see Bengali women working in an Indian restaurant or going out to eat there. Unlike with Turkish restaurants where Turkish women are employed as waitresses and eat there with friends, too. |
