In the office we thought it would have been better if the new Charlie Hebdo cover had had images of (an older) Christ, the Buddha, a Greek Orthodox Patriarch, an orthodox Jew – as well as Mohammad – all of them saying Tout est pardonné. But perhaps we Brits can’t really understand French satire. Wonderful of the Muslim Association of Great Britain to say: ‘Muslims should react in the same way as our prophet – with calmness, grace and the best of manners.’ Very well put. Live and let live.
