Wes Streeting, the president of the National Union of Students (NUS), has taken the time to increase the NUS's links with the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB).
The MCB have extensive links to Jamaat e-Islami, a radical Islamist organisation. However this was not enough to deter Wes, who spoke as to "how much the NUS value its close and continued relations with the MCB."
At a meeting this week with Secretary General Muhammad Abdul Bari, Streeting also expressed his appreciation of the role played by the Federation of Students' Islamic Societies (FOSIS), an MCB affiliate, in NUS affairs. CSC's Islam on Campus showed FOSIS to be unrepresentative of Muslim student opinion in the UK and more likely to hold extremist views; something which clearly hasn't bothered Streeting too much.
The appreciation between Streeting and the Islamists is clearly mutual. FOSIS believe Streeting is the man to "lead the fight against racism"; and Bari has assured that MCB youth affiliates will continue to work with the NUS.
It is unclear as to whether Streeting and Bari's conversation extended to his interesting views on:
• stoning ("it depends what sort of stoning and what circumstances")
• homosexuality ("unacceptable from the religious point of view")
• suicide bombers ("really vulnerable" people)
• freedom of speech (the Satanic Verses "should have been pulped")
The NUS are probably supporting the Islamic takeover of the world. In the radical Glasgow Islamic rag, Friday People, 12 December '08 issue no. 794 published by the radical ex brain surgeon Dr. Manar Tayan (seems to be a lot of radical doctors around these days) There is a small caption spewing, 'O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for Auliya (friends, protectors, helpers etc); they are Auliya of each other; and whoever amonsgst you takes them for Auiya, then surely he is one of them' [MTQ 5:51]

This rag is distributed through the Islamic Relief shop and mosques in Glasgow who are being paid millions of pounds to MCB and the MAB and The Scottish Islamic Foundation (who run adds in Friday People) to integrate into society by the SNP and UK governments.
