The Daily Mail likes stories about Sharia law and angry Islamists, but it’s interesting to examine their readers’ comments on the story of Michelle Palmer, a UK business woman who faces a potential six years in jail for alleged sex on a beach. Perhaps, the Mail readership would welcome a moralising sexually-obsessed religious-based law which is discriminatory towards women (especially “loose” women) in place. Women! Get back in the kitchen and look after your children!
They both deserve what they get, I hope they do make an example of them, behaving like dogs!!

– B Millward, Rotherham, 09/7/2008 10:29If they are guilty of this behaviour then they have only themselves to blame and serves them right for being so crass. If Ibiza was to introduce such a law then their jails would not be able to cope with the numbers!

The Daily Mail is little more than a modern-day version of the stocks.
