UK Politics

Yeah that religion which comprises less than 7% of the UK population is clearly a massive threat. Whereas the one that runs at 45% of the population and has laws mandating its use in schools and legal institutions and has 26 members in the House Of Lords, the only country apart from Iran to appoint religious leaders to law making positions, is obviously no threat to liberty at all.

I wonder how many reckon the extreme side of Christianity (which we see currently devouring the rights of the peoples of the USA) is a threat to our way of life too...

As a British voter, Christiofascism worries me far more than Islam does right now.

And I think Lee Anderson is a threat to the British way of life.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

It found that 52% believe the increasingly prominent conspiracy theory that parts of European cities are under sharia law and are “no-go” areas for non-Muslims.

The findings give an insight into why senior members of the party have refused to condemn the recent comments by Lee Anderson about the London mayor, Sadiq Khan, as Islamophobic.

Anderson, who was the deputy party chair, said on GB News that he thought Khan, one of the country’s most prominent Muslim politicians, was being controlled by Islamists.

Other prominent Conservatives have defended Anderson, including the former home secretary Suella Braverman who said on Monday that the row over his comments constituted “hysteria”.

Sajjad Karim, a former Tory MEP, told the Guardian’s First Edition newsletter this week: “I can go back to about 2012 or 2013 when I first started to detect some of this type of talk.

Lowles said: “Based on the views of Conservative members, it’s clear why Anderson, Braverman et al feel increasingly emboldened to push the boundaries of decency and speak negatively of Muslims, immigrants and multiculturalism more generally.

The original article contains 770 words, the summary contains 178 words. Saved 77%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Of course my post gets downvoted by the "nothing to see here" brigade. 😂

Interesting that people are so selective about what religions they criticise in this country though. As an atheist, I treat them all equally, yet some people seem desperate to never say anything bad about Islam, despite the fact their views on women's rights, LGBT rights and such are very similar to Christianity. 🤔

It’s ok, they’ll just get the press to do another witch hunt for anti-semitism in the Labour Party. No-one can be shocked that you’re racist if you were always racist.

Well, this is obviously overblown, but there is a growing problem with radical Islam in this country.

Just ask the Batley teacher who is still in hiding with police protection three years after he had the audacity to do his job.
