More demands in Britain

What I should have done, if I was a rational thinker like you, would have been to assume that while sitting in a meeting with a senior British official, they requested to bring the rule of the Taliban to Britain and were shocked and dismayed that they did not get instant agreement.
I am at a loss here. Don't you see, that during a conference on how to stop these terrorists, bringing up changes to the British legal system is off the reservation. Who cares how much of Sharia law they wanted to implement? The fact that they even brough it up just shows how completely out of touch they are.

Changing the law in Britian means a majority in parliament, which means a majority of the British citizens, which ain't never going to happen - especially after a terrorist attack. Not only are these changes to the law wrong, and never going to pass, but they are completely beyond the control of the people they are talking to.

Trying to use the terrorist attacks as leverage to change the political system, instead of saying they will do whatever they can to stop them is just absurd.
