We might laugh at the absurdity of Tarquin marching alongside Islamists who’d happily Black-and-Decker his gonads for fun if they ever took power. But the joke’s wearing thin. These useful idiots – many of them graduates, many treating protest like a hobby – don’t just reveal their own stupidity; they broadcast the recklessness of the elites who bred them.

I live outside the UK now, and from here it looks like an act of national euthanasia performed by a progressive class that despises its own inheritance while flogging what’s left to the CCP. Genuinely tragic.

As always, an excellent piece by a voice of reason and decency. 👍

Watching these men at the weekend made me so afraid I couldn't sleep.

Do they do this for the same reason as the rape gangs?

To show us how many there are, and they think they can do whatever they like.

Yes, this and the rape gangs are an expression of aggression and dominance. They are saying, we are here, we are taking over. It’s terrifying and I’m beyond angry at the people in power and the useful idiots of the left who’ve allowed this to happen despite repeated warnings. The west is indulging in cultural suicide and it’s women and children who are reaping the rewards of ‘diversity is our strength’.

Since the Guardian is staffed almost exclusively by effete liberal gays and women who think their brand of Feminist bigotry will liberate the world and make them welcome in every Islamic country,

...they are the ultimate grouping of the clearest examples of what Gad Saad would call "Suicidal empaths".

The Chinese word baizuo (thanks for introducing it to us) should be somewhere on the cover of his book when it comes out.

The same commentators who criticise the right for making judgements from a place of comfort regularly project their Baizuo in such a pathetic manner from their Salford and Hampstead homes, where Islamic militants would be made so very welcome...

I don’t understand why people are shocked or baffled by any of this. In 2014 Stacey Dooley interviewed Muslims who stated very clearly that they only cared about sharia law. They openly said that they didn’t respect our police or our laws & anyone who spoke about this like myself was rapidly silenced & branded anti Muslim - I then would add if you believe that wanting to protect the rights is women & children makes me anti Muslim then so be it - because Muslim girls were asking to be protected because they were British in fact I’ve often asked people why it is that the Left ignore the voices of women like Ayaan Hirsi Ali who in her book Infidel describes her FGM - in Somalia the little girls are stitched up & left with a hole the size of a match stick to pee through.

It may be worth your while to listen to Yasmin Mohammed’s podcasts she was in a forced marriage with one of the men responsible for 9/11

13.05.24 one podcast is « A Palestinian & An Iranian in Israel » https://youtu.be/E0JofYTHHZ8?feature=shared

05.05.22 Ayaan Hirsi Ali & Yasmine Mohammed on Muslim Women’s Struggles, Western Freedoms & Cancel Culture https://youtu.be/-lroULZS9w8?feature=shared

There’s also Mukhtar Mai’s book In the Name of Honour https://cdn.bookey.app/files/pdf/book/en/in-the-name-of-honour---a-memoir.pdf

Banaz An Honour Killing https://youtu.be/Qn-VhFHkUoY?feature=shared

The last words spoken by the detective are chilling because we can’t know how many other girls have been killed because no one talks about it & the girls just disappear.

In the 2018 BBC documentary about Samia Shahid her friends at the very end say - “We’re British why aren’t you protecting us?” this is a complaint I keep hearing from Asian women across various podcasts, they’re being failed by the system, despite the government’s Enough Campaign. If anything their right to speak out and to criticise their own belief system will be decreased even further if Islamophobia Laws are introduced.

Well said. I completely agree with your anger and frustration. I haven’t seen the Ayaan/ Yasmine combination before so thanks for that. And everyone would do well to watch both women and Raymond Ibrahim on Islam.

Thank you for picking up on this Andrew. There's such naivety on the part of the placard-waving 'bruv' who looked so baffled after the gruff response "no we're not." I sincerely hope this will be a wake up call to him and those of his ilk, who are projecting victimhood onto those who blatantly obviously don't see themselves as victims.

Reading down I'm confused why Feminist bigotry has crept into this conversation. I try not o be a bigot.

I'll also raise an objection to the phrase useful idiots. I might agree with it, and the right to say it, but name - calling really doesn't progress intelligent debate. Hillary Clinton's 'deplorables' didn't even bother to listen to her. Why would they?
