I can't help but wonder if Taipan is the mastermind behind it. Nothing happens in his manor without his say so.

The UK really has gone to the dogs after all the shite this week.
Give 'em a break. The Notting Hill Carnival is still a month away, so they need an opportunity to practice getting a bit stabby with each other.

So after the murder of the kids in Southport the EDL losers go to "protest" with no placards and start a riot, destroy peoples property and attack a mosque.
Oh yeah and attack the police.

The community has enough on it's plate without those arseholes stiring up trouble.

London has reached a tipping point.



US intelligence services are suggesting the UK could become the first Islamic state to possess nuclear weapons.

Yeah sounds ridiculous but they have taken political control in a surprisingly large number of key cities. Including of course, London! It's no accident, it is all part of a plan. They came pretty close to being the majority power in Scotland. Sadiq Khan is somehow still in power despite being perhaps the most unpopular London mayor in history.

Predisposed? I am sitting here watching it happen.

It amazes me how many people have their eyes closed. Are you suggesting the Muslim community do not want to alter the fabric of UK society to suit their particular religion? Have you seen the ONS statistics on birthrates? One third (30.3%) of all UK births are to parents of non-UK origin, i.e. immigrants.

That's great. We're all humans and the UK is just a nice dry patch of land on this fragile planet. Immigrant is not a dirty word. I do not subscribe to the bile and spittle of the rhubarb faced right wing nutters. I'm not English. My parents were immigrants.

But I like the UK as it is. I do not like the idea of changing it to become more like <insert foreign country here>.

But there is one group who have a stated ambition to change the UK to suit their purpose and frankly, they're starting to make progress. The hotspots are London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds. We all know it but choose to turn a blind eye.

That would be fine if you happen to believe in "multiculturalism". I don't believe in it frankly because I don't see it working. People like to cling onto their culture. The "culture" I most object to is the one based on religious extremism. I am not a religious person but I do subscribe to strong Judeo-Christian core values.

Those values make it impossible for me to even consider the idea of butchering children for example. It's just not British.

What is taking place in our cities, natural centres for new immigrants, is not the result of any 'conspiracy'. It is instead the direction of travel resulting from the religion adhered to by many of these immigrants - Islam.

As posted long ago in another place:
irie wrote:The problem with Islam

We have spent centuries dividing Church and State thereby asserting the primacy of secular law as the foundation of our democracy.

The central tenet of Islam is the primacy of religious law over secular law.

Therein lies the irreconcilable conflict between the teachings of Islam and the central foundation of our democracy.

Millions in the Islamic world do not believe in free speech, freedom of religion, democracy, a secular state, free enterprise, and human rights, but these are precisely the principles which are the basic foundations of our Western Democracies.

Islam is fundamentally incompatible with Western Democracy.

We have a problem, but very few people will admit it. It's OK, time will solve it, but a lot of people will get hurt in the process.

What we need, for EVERY citizen, is a clear declaration that they accept the constitution and the law of the UK. If they don't they should be invited to leave.
Most immigrants are fine, most right wingers don't want to kill people. It is the extremists on both sides who stir up trouble.

That video illustrates London two tier policing about perfectly. If a pro Britain group had done the same, they'd have had the riot police there kettling them etc.

It is all very disturbing. The clip below is from 2015 and the sentiment was repeated by a Dutch Imam fairly recently. Look how the numbers have increased since 2015. As everyone saw when the situation in Ukraine broke out, women and children fled and were received here and elsewhere. But look at the people arriving on the boats, that is not hoards of women and children, its young men of combatant age. Are people really not seeing this, or not concerned by it? Unbridled illegal immigration causes many problems but also will lead to the inevitable rise of the extremists in retaliation. Surely that is a concern at least? Normal peopell are rebelling now as well. Look at Ireland. I really don't see this ending well.
Times of Israel wrote:Take over the continent 'in the name of the coming Caliphate,' urges imam in Jerusalem
Breed and conquer Europe, al-Aqsa preacher exhorts Muslims.
An imam at Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa Mosque last week called on Muslim migrants to Europe to produce children in order to conquer the continent “in the name of the coming Caliphate.”

Speaking in a Friday address at Islam’s third holiest site, Sheikh Muhammad Ayed said European countries only wanted Muslim migrants who are currently flooding into the EU for the sake of labor.

Ayed’s remarks, published online on September 11 and translated on Friday by a US-based media watchdog, came as European Union governments quarreled over finding a way to collectively contend with the growing masses of refugees arriving in their borders.
“Germany is not a compassionate country that wishes to absorb refugees from Syria and Iraq, and Palestinian refugees in the Levant and elsewhere,” the preacher said, according to a translation of the recorded speech published by media monitor MEMRI.

“Europe has become old and decrepit, and needs human reinforcement. No force is more powerful than the human force of us Muslims.”

I'm calling bullshit on the only men on the small boats cos theres a load of women and chidren who were put up in a local hotel, I've seen em with my own eyes.
Then another hotel had blokes in it and as far as Ive seen they've been friendly and smile, say hello/good morning when I walk the dog past em.
Maybe you lot are cowering in fear but I'm ambling past and having no issues, do you need to strap a pair on?
Far more issues locally with home grown coke dealers.
