thats the thing, if 99.9% of their customers want halal and/or nobody is picking the pork for their sub then the business will change.

its not rocket science, supply and demand 101.

Fully agree. A business is a commercial entity and I'm confident they know much better than what any of us on here thinks their customers want.

No different than many supermarkets which have lines relevant to the area that they are in.

Btw they'll still do their foot long meatball chilli cheese melt :) yum yum
 
Can I ask my question now without it being deleted?

Surely no areas in Britain are 99.9% Islam,

Didn't someone spout off there are only a few areas over 50% Muslim. Why would a company need to change its policy for 200 outlets accross the UK unless that figure is very false? Less than 10% of the populatiuon and it makes business sense to change the policies of stores accross the whole of the UK. Less than 10% my backside, or unless they are scared of the particularly vociferous minority of people here that practice islam...

Here it is

Whens this going to happen ST4? We encouraged immigration in the 50's, 60 years on and the census said 86% of the population were of white ethnicity, 7.5% asian, 3.3% black, 2.2% mixed.

Muslim in the uk in the 2011 census 2,706,066

Strictly speaking that could still be correct. After all we are only talking about one specific shop. And if their footfall clientele provides no significant demand for certain sandwiches than it doesn't make any economical sense to stock those perishable ingredients.

You could not possibly deduct what percentage of people live in that area, it merely says something about their customers.

I'd wager the store appeals to British entnicity more but still it caters (not just in a few stores) but 200 all accross the UK to change their menue to a Muslim pleasing one.

Seems odd?

Ok just British people with British customs. Jeez.

Do you wish to see Islam grow and its customs spill into everyones life here. Yes or no?

Do you want to try and be any more dramatic? "Everyones life"?? Really? Do you really think that 'everyone' would let that happen? People will continue to live their lives as they see fit.

To answer your question, no, I dont want to live by Sharia law (which is what you are getting at), but then, I wont ever have to.

Would you not wish to do everything possible now, to avoid living by Sharia law. I know I would.

i said customers, not population. and i was not specifically targeting muslim faith customers, might just be that pork was not selling and more demand was there for halal.

not being privy to subways sales stats its hard to be sure, but they would not change their "menu" just for the LOLZ.

I really doubt, having alas had the misfortune to dine there, would suggest the bulk of their custom would be islamic. What it is, is a particularly vociferous group, demands this and that rather than just go somewhere more suited to their requirements.

despite being born and bred here I think my life is richer for the country being a melting pot of different cultures. For the most part embracing or atleast tolerating each other. I think life would be considerably poorer without that multicultrualism. Don't you?

I am not against others coming here, and am for diversity, but I am not for the status quo being changed by minorities for the majority and British people having to adjust their lives to accomodate Muslim ones.

Is that the best you can do? Don't like freedom of speech, again when Sharia comes you can enjoy not having that freedom.

Simply saying it's a bit contradictory to demand people to answer your posts and not do it yourself.

Well, I never realised there was a question in there. I'm not fearful of any areas. I don't live in or near them. The folk I spoke to were predominantly speaking about Islamic habited areas although they did also say there were certain parts within some estates they could/would not venture into which were habited and occupied by mainly Afro Carribean gangs and families.

How I'd feel, react or handle situations as detailed above if I was directly affected by such areas is a moot point and cannot be answered withou conjecture at present. I like to think I know how but until that eventuality actually happens I can't be sure.

the subway thing is supply and demand, not some obscure plot to force halal meat onto the world. either way i dont care, meat is meat.

So supply and demand has brought in a foreign custom into a main stream establishment. Tell me how that isn't islamification...by quantity. A lot of people who are into animal cruelity feel very differently about Halal, British people.

Think about that for a minute will you.

Supply and demand wouldnt bring in foreign custom. It is the custom they were getting that made them decide that they would use Halal meat.

its good business sense to increase the sale of what already sells and decrease the surplus stock of what doesn't. it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with islamification (thats not even a word by the way).

personally i dont care about halal. the last 30 seconds of an animals life are pretty insignificant when the outcome is the same (death). plus there are some dodgy practicing abattoirs out there doing it the "normal" way, so don't tell me one method is crueler than the other.

I like western customs, western ways. If I wanted to live under Islam I'd move to an established Muslim one. I don't want to see militant nut jobs spread it here and I feel if those here don't like western life, they should leave/be made to leave and never come back
