Day at the office on Planet Pepe

He said rather brusquely to me, "Don't touch me, you're a Christian". Children aged eight and nine in his class praised the suicide bombers in the 9/11 attacks. "We want to be Islamic bombers when we grow up", "the Twin Towers bombers are heroes and martyrs", "we hate the Jews" and "we hate the Christians".

Some pupils 'expressed delight' that a child had died when a wall collapsed on him in London. When asked why, one of the children replied: 'Because he's English.' The following month, during a religious education lesson about Jonah and the whale, one of the pupils asked if Jonah was a Jew, before shouting: 'I hate the Jews, they're our enemies.'
