"#Britain is beset by a bogeyman. A giant, mystical beast that the public are forever being threatened with. Remember last year when a young #Welsh choirboy stabbed three young girls to death at a Taylor #Swift-themed dance party in #Southport? Long before we were allowed to know the name of the culprit – Axel #Rudakubana – we were warned about a much greater menace: a rallying by the ‘far right’. After impromptu protests and some rioting broke out in various cities, we were promised on an hourly basis that the ‘far right’ was mobilising. Soon there were crowds of Muslim men organising to counter any such threat. Nick #Lowles, of the wrongly named ‘anti-racist’ group #HopeNotHate, helped to whip things up by wrongly claiming that a Muslim woman in #Middlesbrough had had acid thrown in her face. Even though the report was untrue, the #Muslim men who were already starting to tool up clearly saw danger. Soon a ‘list’ was being talked about. A list which ‘anti-fascist’ groups insisted was a set of places across the country where the ‘far right’ was going to march on a particular day. Because of course the ‘far right’ is always ‘on the march’, whereas the far left and #Islamists are only ever reacting to this alleged march. The list – like the acid attack – turned out to be a complete fabrication. Nonetheless, when the big day came, large numbers of people were on the streets waving their ‘Refugees welcome’ banners and other paraphernalia. Most of the media bought into the false narrative, and so after the ‘far-right’ marches that didn’t occur there were many headlines like ‘#Britain unites against hate’. They might as well have said ‘#Britain unites against the tooth fairy’. I have observed for some years now that to the extent that the #UK does have a far-right problem, it is, happily, a problem of supply and demand. For while there is a huge demand for ‘literal Nazis’ and fascists, there is only ever a tiny supply of them. Certainly no movement large enough to march down the main street in a single city. Fast-forward another year and the country has still learned nothing. Last Saturday there was talk of an anti-mass-migration rally in #London. #Ukip (which apparently still exists as a separate party) planned to hold a demonstration in #TowerHamlets. The #MetPolice blocked the protest on the basis that there would be a ‘realistic prospect of serious disorder’. Tower Hamlets is one of those areas I mentioned last week that used to be called ‘diverse’ but parts of it are pretty homogenous these days. Just homogenous in a different way. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the police’s decision, it is accepted in the UK that you cannot have a protest against mass migration in a predominantly #Muslim area. Presumably because, although Islam is well known to be a religion of peace, there could be some of its adherents who might break every tenet of their faith and its founder’s teachings, and accidentally slip into heresy for a moment to commit acts of violence." #UK #corrupt #corruption #corruptpolice #corruptjudge #corruptjustice #terrorism #domesticterrorism #immigration #illegalimmigration #Islam #Islamic #Islamist #Islamism #Muslim #Muslims #jihad #jihadi https://archive.is/WYG3k https://archive.is/nEGtn
