I have a young acquaintance in England and she's part of the group who are offended by those hanging the Union Jack. I also have an older one who loves Donald Trump and Katie Hawkins.

Michael Smith has an excellent article on the topic. The left welcomed massive immigration and celebrated non-assimilation as being beneficial multiculturalism in order to advance leftism. Now they're under threat of being ousted by the Muslims they invited in.

The so-called “Michigan Problem” is no longer confined to Dearborn and Hamtramck. What began as a localized electoral headache for American Democrats—Arab and Muslim voters in a pivotal swing state bolting over Gaza and progressive social policies—has become a transatlantic crisis. In the United Kingdom and across the European Union, left-of-center parties confront an identical fracture: once-reliable Muslim blocs, imported through decades of migration and refugee resettlement, are abandoning them and running their own candidates or supporting alternatives.

.
.
.

The trigger is often foreign policy, but the deeper fault line is religious and cultural. Socially conservative Islamic values on sex, gender, family, and speech clash irreconcilably with the modern left’s progressive orthodoxy. As it turns out, conservative Americans are liberal compared to the “conservative values” in Islam. For decades, progressive Democrats conjured straw men to represent conservative Republicans. Now they don’t need to—they imported them.

The result is a coalition trap that neither side of the Atlantic has solved, exposing the failure of multiculturalism when assimilation is optional.

.
.
.

Across the Atlantic, the scale is larger and the stakes existential. British Muslims, numbering about 4 million or 6 percent of the population, delivered Labour landslide margins for decades. In 2024, that loyalty shattered. ... The Starmer government now fears the very people they need to keep them in power, as deportation and remigration fever begins to catch hold.

The EU version is more explosive still. In France, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Belgium, Muslim populations—often 6-10 percent nationally, 20-40 percent in urban enclaves like Seine-Saint-Denis, Malmö, or Molenbeek—were cultivated as multicultural shock troops for the left.

.
.
.

More fundamentally, Islamic social conservatism—rigid on premarital sex, homosexuality, gender fluidity, blasphemy, and family hierarchy—collides with progressive dogma far more violently than modern Christianity does.
.
.
.

Europe’s crisis is systemic. Higher migrant fertility rates plus continued inflows project Muslim shares doubling or tripling by mid-century in several countries. Enclaves function as de facto parallel societies, multiparty fragmentation splinters the left, and populist right surges on explicit anti-Islam platforms. Native working-class voters, once Labour or Social Democrat stalwarts, have fled to AfD, National Rally, or Sweden Democrats over crime, housing, and cultural erosion. The welfare state magnifies resentment; visible Islamization—halal-only schools, honor violence, blasphemy demands—makes denial impossible.

This is no accident of bad luck. It is the predictable collision of mass, unvetted migration from illiberal societies with a host culture that abandoned assimilation for celebration of difference. Progressives sold multiculturalism as enrichment; reality delivered imported theocracies-lite that reject core liberal tenets on individual liberty and equality.

The Islamization of Britain is Almost Complete

British institutions are relentlessly embracing Islam, attacking classic British culture, and turning a blind eye to Islamic crime and antisemitism.

Janet Levy | March 22, 2026

The British Empire was the largest in history. With colonies on every continent, it covered more than a quarter of the earth’s land and governed over a fifth of the world’s population. Besides dominating military, economic, diplomatic, and political affairs, it transformed the world by spreading Western values, customs, and culture, as well as ideas such as individualism, rationalism, capitalism, and modern scientific thought. That influence continues in the educational, legal, and parliamentary systems of many countries.

But Britain is now a shadow of its former self, having allowed its institutions, the media, academia, and the public to be heavily influenced by Islam, which the late Christopher Hitchens described as “the most toxic form that religion can take.” Fashionable deference to Islam—the government, for example, treats even the most innocuous criticism of Islam as “hate speech”—has caused a noticeable shift in power, identity, and influence, and it may not be long before Britain becomes an Islamic state.

The Muslim population is projected to exceed 8% by 2030. There are over 2,000 mosques, more than 85 sharia courts challenge British common law, sharia finance is growing in popularity, halal food is widespread, and the government recognizes Islamic holidays with an enthusiasm that would shame many Muslim countries. Iftars are hosted at the House of Commons, and Ramadan prayers are offered at Windsor Castle, a symbol of Britain’s historical pre-eminence.

For years, public discourse has been filled with discussions about Britain’s Islamization. U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance once joked that Britain might be the first truly Islamic country to acquire nuclear weapons. Elon Musk criticized U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer for ignoring Muslim sex grooming gangs that exploit children and for remaining silent on Pakistani rape gangs when he was Britain’s director of public prosecution. But governments—especially Labour Party governments—have consistently ignored the warning signs and have encouraged Islam by permitting mass migration and giving in to every demand made by Muslim groups.

Examples are plentiful of Britain’s decline into submission to Islam and the replacement of its Western culture by sharia. Guidance documents for schools from Labor-run city councils in northern England warn educators that drawing and music lessons could be considered blasphemous to Islam. The Green Party of England and Wales plans to change school curricula to teach children that it is their moral duty to welcome immigrants. In the name of raising awareness about a religion from another culture, children too young to question their teachers are being brainwashed.

While the authorities go out of their way to accommodate Islam, they have no hesitation about attacking Christianity or being lenient with those who criticize it.

Hatun Tash, a Turkish-born British citizen and former Muslim, was arrested twice for preaching Christianity and criticizing the Quran at Hyde Park’s Speakers’ Corner, a stronghold of free speech. Ironically, she was the victim in these incidents and has been stabbed and beaten by Muslims more than once.
Daniel Ayettey, a pastor, was pulled off a ladder and threatened with a knife by a Muslim asylum seeker from Sudan who had 29 previous convictions for 67 offenses. The attacker was spared jail by a judge.
A police officer instructed a group of gospel-sharing Christians to stop their activities.
A preacher was detained for questioning a Muslim woman about Quranic verses related to domestic violence.
Christmas markets across the UK were canceled in 2025, with city councils claiming they lacked funds, while money was allocated for Ramadan and Eid celebrations nationwide.

Perhaps the most powerful symbolic statement by Muslims was a recent Iftar gathering in London’s Trafalgar Square. Over 3,000 Muslims assembled for evening prayers, which started with the adhan; London Mayor Sadiq Khan attended and distributed dinner packages. When senior conservative Nick Timothy objected to the event, describing a public call of Allahu akbar as “a declaration of domination,” Starmer called for his removal as shadow justice secretary.

Islamist influence is already evident in self-proclaimed “Muslim areas” of London, where the vigilante Muslim London Patrol confronts passersby and advises them not to drink alcohol or wear short dresses. A 2013 report details how its volunteers scold non-Muslims and tell them to stay away from mosques. Gay men are called “dirty” and asked to leave.

Muslims are heard saying that England is not a Christian country and that Islam is on the rise. Anjem Choudary, a prominent radical preacher and Sharia court judge now serving a life sentence for terrorist activities, once led the Islamic Emirates Project, aiming to turn 12 British cities into independent Islamic states outside of British law.

Meanwhile, ignoring widespread expressions of Jew-hatred by Muslims, the British government has taken steps to define anti-Muslim hatred and Islamophobia. Currently, hate crimes against Muslims are twice as likely to result in prosecution as hate crimes against Jews. Antisemitism is blatant and rampant: Muslim mobs chant “Death to Israel” and call for the murder of Jews; at anti-Israel rallies, protesters mention a historic 7th-century battle against Jewish tribes, shouting Khaybar, Khaybar, oh Jews, the army of Mohammad will return; and Muslim clerics promote Jew hatred and support terrorist groups like Hamas. Significant efforts are made—by the government as well as the liberal media—to downplay such antisemitism.

But even perceived offenses to Muslim sensibilities invoke the wrath of the law, as West London restaurateur Harnam Singh Kapoor learned. Kapoor, a Sikh, has a sign at his restaurant Rangrez that says, “Proudly Non Halal Restaurant.” For this, he faced threats and confrontations from Muslim groups, while he and his wife received phone calls warning that their daughter would be raped by grooming gangs. To protect himself and his family, he began carrying a kirpan, a Sikh ceremonial dagger. On March 14, after Kapoor called for a non-halal meet-up at his restaurant, over 100 people gathered around the premises, chanting slogans. When he contacted the police, they arrested him instead.

The extent to which the British government is willing to accommodate Muslim practices is clear in its choice to normalize cousin marriage, ignoring scientific evidence that shows it increases the risk of inheriting recessive disorders. According to a Bradford study, the rate of cousin or relative marriage among immigrant Muslims reaches as high as 46%. This practice is banned in Norway and most American states and is set to be banned in Sweden. Last year, Conservative MP Richard Holden proposed a bill for a similar ban in the U.K.

But the National Health Service (NHS) has directed its doctors and nurses to stop issuing blanket discouragements against the practice to Muslim families. They were informed that giving such advice is “unacceptable.” It even published a report—now withdrawn—praising the “benefits” of cousin marriage, and advertised for nurses to support families choosing close-relative marriages. Holden was outraged that public funds were being used to address a custom that should be banned outright.

As conservative commentator Patrick West writes in The Spectator: Should British culture be allowed to be diluted by a “self-abasing and cowardly coterie of white liberals,” all in the “dread names of multiculturalism, diversity, and inclusivity”? Can the British public genuinely support the idea that Muslims need special laws and protections in addition to those protecting other citizens?

How much longer before the once-greatest empire on earth is surpassed by Islam?

Muslim numbers approx. 315,000 in Texas, about 1% of the population. New York has the largest Muslim population in the U.S., almost 750,000, 3.75% of the total population, with CA (500K), Illinois (475K), and New Jersey (325K) having the next largest. They haven't completely taken over, but Islam and Sharia Law has zero place in U.S. society.

Yep. Britain is proof that Islam is not compatible with Western Civilization.
I hope we learn from the UK before it's too late for us. Islam does not want to assimilate. It wants to dominate and subjugate.

We cannot continue to welcome Islamists into our country. Those who are not citizens should be expelled.

Anybody have an idea where all these .goddamn. muslims work while 'praying' in the middle of streets?

NJ's new governor can't suck up to them fast enough. Begging to be killed last?

Christopher Hitchins Barely Touched Upon Islam’s Predations

In a viral clip, Hitchens spoke about the Muslims’ centuries-long slave trade against Europeans and Americans. He understated the severity of the problem.

A viral clip is making the rounds showing Christopher Hitchens, who passed away in 2011, giving a talk in 2005. In it, he discusses the Barbary slave trade that captured an estimated 1.5 million Europeans and Americans over several hundred years. If anything, Hitchens understated how aggressive the Islamic world was against the West.

Anyone with a knowledge of history knows that Islam, born in seventh-century Arabia, has always been at war with Western civilization. Indeed, it has been the single most prolific conquering and colonizing force in history, much of it being Christian lands. And all of this has been driven by religious imperatives and duties written into the Koran.

That is reality, not “Islamophobia,” a word the left recently invented to protect their radical Islamist allies in the West. The threat of destruction from radical Islamists, as we term them today, has always been real and as imminent as their abilities allowed.

America fought its first wars outside of its borders—the Barbary Wars—to stop Islamic nations from attacking our ships and enslaving their crews. That was what Christopher Hitchens was referring to in this 21-year-old clip that recently went viral:

The letter Hitchens paraphrases is far more damning and explicit, for it ties the Barbary pirates’ predations directly to the Koran and Islam.

John Adams and Thomas Jefferson met in London with the Ambassador from the Barbary States to discuss the pirates’ attacking American shipping and enslaving the crews. They wrote of the meeting in a joint letter to Congress:
Advertisement

We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretentions to make war upon Nations who had done them no Injury, & observed that we considered all mankind as our friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation—

The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, & to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every musselman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise...

Take a moment to see if you can find any substantive differences between that explanation and what Ayatollah Khomenei, who founded the current evil theocracy in Iran, said almost 200 years later as he dreamed of bloody conquest over Christian nations:

I am decisively announcing to the whole world that if the world-devourers [i.e., the infidel powers] wish to stand against our religion, we will stand against their whole world and will not cease until the annihilation of all them. Either we all become free, or we will go to the greater freedom which is martyrdom. Either we shake one another’s hands in joy at the victory of Islam in the world, or all of us will turn to eternal life and martyrdom. In both cases, victory and success are ours.

Those were not idle threats, whether spoken in 1786 or written in 1979. Were it not for a few brave Christians who blocked the Muslim invasions, Western civilization would have been overrun and extinguished centuries ago. Their names ring down through history.

In 732, Charles Martel stopped a Muslim invasion of Western Europe at the Battle of Tours.
In 1091, Roger I reconquered Sicily after 250 years of Muslim occupation.
In 1492, Ferdinand and Isabella reconquered Spain and Portugal after 700 years of Muslim occupation.
In 1571, Don John won the naval Battle of Lepanto, destroying an Ottoman fleet bent on conquering Christian lands.
In 1683, John Sobieski crushed the Ottoman army before the Gates of Vienna, halting their invasion of southern Europe.

And while Muslim conquests ended at the Gates of Vienna, Muslim predation did not. The biggest threat arose from the coasts of North Africa, where state-sponsored Islamic pirates—the Barbary Pirates—prowled the waters. By 1500, these pirates had been attacking Christian ships in the Mediterranean for hundreds of years.

Then they began coastal raids to capture Christian slaves. Notable were the slave raids at Liparia, Sicily (1544), Gozo, Malta (1551), Vieste, Italy (1554), Balearic Islands, Spain (1558), and the repeated raids on Cornwall and Devonshire, England (1625-1645). Perhaps the most notorious raid was in 1631, when the Islamic pirates raided and enslaved the entire population of Baltimore, Ireland, in 1631.

To put all this in perspective, from 1530 through 1750, when looking at both capturing Christians at sea and the coastal raids, the Barbary Pirates enslaved an estimated 1.25 million white, Christian Europeans. By contrast, according to Prof. Henry Louis Gates Jr., the 13 colonies of America imported 388,000 African slaves from 1619 to 1808, when the United States outlawed the transatlantic slave trade:

I saw a video on Youtube where a Muslim (automatically an asshole) was demanding that someone stop eating his lunch on a bus because to was ramadan and the smell of the food offended his delicate sensibilities. To which the guy basically told him to shut up. BTW this was a British bus so the guy eating his lunch wasn't able to fully express himself but it was quite clear that this whining little man girl Muslim (asshole) was pushing the guy's limits pretty hard.

I used to be willing to accept Muslims. But the unwavering support for terrorists has lead me to conclude that the Koran is the most Evil document on that planet and the day will come when the entire world comes to a similar conclusion. At that point the Koran will be banned worldwide and it's followers will have a similar fate.

I will also note that if President Trump states that the only solution for Iran is to bomb it back to the Stone Age I will fully support that policy.

I wonder what would happen with these fucks if Mecca ceased to be. I'd hate to see them make something up to kill for (note Islam's history).

Liberal Council In UK Moves To Ban "Intimidating" National Flags

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

In the latest salvo against British identity, a Liberal Democrat-run council has formally branded the simple act of flying the England flag an “act of intimidation and division” – and backed it up with a legal notice threatening residents with prosecution.

Oxfordshire County Council is pushing a county-wide crackdown by on the grassroots Raise the Colours campaign, which has been putting up Union Flags and St George’s Crosses in public spaces as a straightforward show of patriotism. The council’s message is clear: national symbols are now suspect.

The council issued the formal stop notice to the Raise the Colours group, warning that continued flag displays could lead to civil and even criminal proceedings. Council leader Liz Leffman charged that “The widespread installation of flags by Raise the Colours is not a sign of patriotism. It is an act of intimidation and division that is having a real and damaging impact on our communities.”

She added that residents and council teams removing the flags “had been subject to abuse and threatening behaviour” when challenging those installing them. “This is totally unacceptable,” Leffman said.

She added, “The council has a responsibility to act where behaviour undermines community cohesion and the safe and inclusive use of public spaces. That is why we are taking firm action. We won’t hesitate to take further legal steps where necessary to protect residents and support the cohesion of our communities.”

This comes just weeks after a leaked UK Government “social cohesion” strategy branded the flying of English, Scottish, and Union Jack flags as potential “tools of hate.”

They must be very close to a civil uprising. There are some fiercely independent people there who don't mind getting physical. My late uncle was such a person, and had this been going on 40+ years ago (he'd be 97 yrs old now), he would have been involved in a like-minded group. Threatening them for flying the flag would be a call to action.

Most people are afraid to step out of line due social stigma or threat to their income. We saw that clearly during the pandemic. Britain, surprisingly, has a group very much like the revolutionaries in America in the early 1770's. Probably it's a very small group these days in the UK.

When the tipping point is reached, I expect there will be some shocking events.

The King of England and, as such, the head of the Anglican Church will have no Easter statement this year. I've not seen this reported anywhere else, truthiness unverified but I see no comments on the vid that refute it.
