Little Englanders were furious a library is being turned into a mosque and the internet told them to shush – 13 oversized comebacks

Did any Churches put in an offer to buy it?
Any synagogues?
Any Buddhist, Hindu or Sikhs?
Did YOU put in a bid to buy a building you didn’t know existed until your paymasters told you to tweet about it?

I lived literally right next to this library for 2 years, there was never anyone in there using it
We are not “losing the building” because the building as a mosque will still look the same and be accessible to non-muslims to appreciate

The building closed in 2015. It’s been empty for a decade. Better to have it used and maintained than fall into rack and ruin.

It belongs to the council and is unused. It has a restrictive covenant limiting what it can be used for. The Muslim Association are going to lease it – they currently use a Catholic hall – and will be responsible for maintaining the building.

Why is it lost?
Why don’t you start using it then?
It’s not surrendering it’s getting used.

They’re like kids when they get bored of a toy, they forget about it. Then, when another kid comes over to play with that toy, they suddenly remember they want it again

I was born in Abergavenny. Storm in a teacup. Not a problem at all. Far better to have beautiful buildings being used by the community than stood open.
