It was depressingly inevitable really.
The Sun pull their long-running Page 3 topless model feature (for the moment) and some people instantly assume it's because of 'creeping sharia' and the 'Islamisation' of the UK.
If we end today and nobody's made a link between Page 3 and Sharia Law overtaking UK, I'll feel let down by the internet.

No more page 3 girls
Islam agen ?
— daft lad (@peterberry225) January 20, 2015So page 3 is being removed because Muslims do not like it. Don't buy the f**ing paper then! 😡

Muslims are offended and do not like to see any form of nudity remember, that is why all outdoor swimming pools... http://t.co/HWIPvxnSER

Did the Sun capitulate on page 3 after Muslims (corner shops ) started refusing to sell the paper? #islamificationUK
— peterb (@purpleline) January 20, 2015Backed up with absolutely nothing there, nice one.
Page 3 ditched because of upsetting Muslims.
— wb (@B1977W) January 19, 2015Great photoshopping there mate.
HAS THE SUN DROPPED TOPLESS MODELS FROM PAGE THREE?
PROBABLY BECAUSE MUSLIMS MAY BE OFFENDED pic.twitter.com/p28GndbQwD
