I read this on facebook the other day.

Someone explained that anyone ( any religion ) can apply to not pay council tax if the living area is used as a place of prayer ( something along those lines )

Bullshit if you ask me but that's apparently the score.

Right so let's all invent our own new fantasy religion and all register so none of us are paying council tax? Seems like the only fair thing to do. Perhaps we could worship Warnock?

Didn’t realise everything posted on social media was now regarded as gospel.

We could follow the gospel according to social media . Com
They have billions of followers .Don't need a prayer mat , just a tablet and pray for good WiFi.

I'm game with that although I think you need 100k signatures for it to pass as a real religion :laughing5:

For a start if anyone insisted part of their house was used in this way it would have to be classified as non domestic rather than a domestic property and would be subject to business rates. Can't believe people actually swallow this crap

Yep would deffo call BS on this.

The law of the land is actually pretty nailed on for allowing everyone to be treated equally - it's only the application (or laxk of it) of it that leads to inequalities.

That said I'm registering my house as a Jedi temple just to be sure.

gutted for grange end that no one’s bitten on this bet he was pulsating all over for the opportunity to berate muslims on the internet

People do need to corroborate their bullshit so they dont look stupid.

This has been mooted for at least 10 years and constantly been corrected.

Places of Worship can only be exempt from business rates and that is only IF they are open to ALL the public. For this reason Mormon Churches are not exempt as they do not open fully to everyone.

This "Fake News" even became the subject of a government petition back in 2013. The wording was even Identical to that on the original post.

Another thing for us all to ponder on. If any of us were unfortunate enough to find ourselves having to sign on the dole, we would be hassled from pillar to post to show what we are doing to find work, blah, blah blah. Muslim men DO NOT suffer this indignity as they tell the dole that as they have to pray 5 times a day they cannot/will not be able to get or even hold down a job. They NEVER get threatened with losing benefits as white working class Brits do. This country is fucked.....F.T.J. !!!!

You're absolutely right, this is another load of BS doing the rounds; people will have to watch out for this one too. It's not just the country that's fucked: this fake news campaign is f*cking up the whole world. Mind you, it's a fair point made about bureaucrats. Unless you're rich they're a plague on everyone's lives.

The most worrying thing about this is that people actually believe it !!

It’s frankly amazing that extremists, of any persuasion, can simply make something like this up knowing that a small percentage of people will believe it and get on board their wagon of hate.

I just wish people would use some common sense !!

Rant over ............ now off to build my shrine in the kitchen !!!!!!!
