If Asian Muslims wish to be respected by the wider community they should in turn show respect FOR the wider community. Respect is not something to be demanded but rather earned and this is a matter Muslims need to understand, especially in a Christian country.
The worse thing any government can do is legislate and to try and control the expression of religious belief because this places unjust restrictions on the freedom of religion which is essential to any peaceful coherence between people of different belief systems. If people have no right or justification for making certain demands on the wider community, it ought to be understood that this is a universal concept that is not determined by belief or lack thereof. There is simply no right.

Politicians with a scant ability for the use of reason, who suggest that this or that Church, Mosque, Temple, Faith must be subject to the rule of law (where no law is applicable in the first place) are a danger to themselves and others and would probably be better off claiming disability. The last thing my home town needs is nut-burgers (local or in the Commons) encouraging one minority to bully the majority or make demands they’re in truth not entitled to. The minority would be better off if they learned to live with their neighbours because the endgame is peace and not war.
