      Yes, but what a stink by the human rights idiots and her friends and family. BBC reports “A friend of Ms Begum’s family, Dal Babu, said the Home Office’s decision was “bizarre”. And her defence lawyer will explore options, which means they will hire an Amal Clooney or Cherie Blair type to undermine our security and find a bagman, liberal judge.

      Frankly, I believe all moslems would be happier in their land of origin. It is after all a middle eastern religion and they are those lands’ people. Christianity, 600 years earlier, graduated from it’s own middle eastern origins to the west with St Peter, the moslem thing stayed east. You know how El Cid felt when that plague came west. I needn’t remind you what he achieved for Europe 900 years ago.

      For once the UK is showing it has some mettle. And the BBC knows it must approach it’s Islamic propaganda with caution, easing the pro-Begum message upon Britain, aware of the ire it risks receiving.

      One thing I have learnt. The arab spring, bbc’s pet project, was a cataclysm creating political vacuums into which terrorism flowed. We must learn to leave nations that are backward in their fundamentalist religious attitude alone; perhaps better led by the Saddams, Assads, Gadaffis etc. Imagine if the middle east did not have oil. It would still be like Africa – tribal, internecine, poor, and not in our face.

          madandbad, you are naive if you think it was that simple.

          Cameron like all Western leaders was bought by the Saudis long before he became PM. Saudi wanted Gaddafi removed because he posed a threat to them in attempted to produce an African equivalent to the Arab League – headed by Saudi, of African oil producing countries.

          Every action taken by Western leaders with regard to the Middle East is undertaken in the interest and at the direction of Saudi and their allies, and they pay handsomly for it.

          Why do you think that not a single Prime Minister since Major has taken up their entitlement to a peerage? It’s because if they did they would have to disclose their source of income, and they don’t want us knowing!

            Quite correct. The interference by the west in arab affairs has indeed always been orchestrated by Saudi wealth (itself, made vastly rich by US petrodollars in the last 100 years – the irony). Good post.

      We are told on the BBC that Shamima Begum lost her first two babies because of malnutrition and disease. In the nicest possible way, judging by her face which looks plump , Shamima doesn’t look as though that is a risk with her third baby. Her clothes appear clean and we have seen her in different black outfits – it just makes me wonder what conditions she is living under and what is her real motivation for wanting to return to the UK.

    slamic Takeover: Why Mass Immigration Signals ‘the End of Britain’
    03-29-2017
    Dale Hurd
    S

    LONDON – Last week’s terror attack by a British-born Muslim proves again that a radical community exists within Britain. Its goal: create an Islamic nation. And there is a quieter force at work that will likely achieve that desire long before guns, bombs and violence.

    This is not Karachi. It’s London.

    Britain’s policy of mass immigration has brought what one expert calls “demographic upheaval” to the United Kingdom that could change almost everything.

    “Finis Britanniae” – The End of Britain

    It’s now a demographic certainty. Someday the white native English will be a minority in their own country, including the native Welsh and the Scots.

    It’s just a matter of when.

    Professor David Coleman is a supernumerary fellow in human sciences and university professor in demography at Oxford. He’s has written that uncontrolled immigration could lead to “finis Britanniae.”

    “Which simply means the end of Britain, and by that, I mean the end of Britain as we know it,” Coleman said.

    “The point I was making is the change in the number of people and particularly the change in the origins of people, in their religion, in their cultural background, would make Britain unrecognizable compared with the present time,” he said.

    Immigration can strengthen a nation. But several western nations, including the United States, are debating the wisdom of large-scale immigration from the Islamic world. And experts wonder what will happen as Muslim numbers continue to grow in officially Christian Britain.

    In the dystopian masterpiece Children of Men, ethnic division and civil war wracks Britain in 2027. Armed Muslim gangs fight a government that is hunting down and deporting immigrants while trying to maintain order.

    Britain’s future is not likely to be this violent, but it may not be peaceful either.

    When the Christian activist group Britain First took large crosses through Luton’s Bury Park last year, angry Muslims confronted them.

    MUSLIM MAN: It’s our country.

    WHITE MAN: It’s your country, is it, yeah?

    MUSLIM MAN: Yeah mate, it’s our country.

    WHITE WOMAN It’s a Christian country.

    MUSLIM MAN: It’s not a Christian country.

    WHITE WOMAN Yes it is.

    MUSLIM MAN: It’s not a Christian country, mate….You’re jealous. You’re jealous that we’re taking over.

    MUSLIM WOMAN: The Muslims will take over. Watch.

    Urban areas are becoming increasingly Islamic whereas rural area are becoming increasingly English, and there’s a retreat away from these two populations. That’s the future.

    Policy analyst George Igler says he does believe it will take 40 or 50 years before the native British are a minority.

    “This is a nonsense. It’s going to be much sooner. And more importantly, when you look at places like Luton. When you look at the experience of women in Cologne. We already have a window into what this future will be like. It’s going to violence and sexual violence against non-Muslims. It’s going to be insistence on Sharia Law,” Igler said.

    Drastic Changes on the Horizon

    Professor Coleman, who stressed he is not anti-Muslim but is simply looking at statistics, nevertheless said the changes could be drastic.

    “There are strong currents in Muslim society which wish to see Muslim approaches to diet, to marriage and would like to see Sharia Law incorporated formally into British Law or in respect to some extremist groups would like to see Sharia Law replace British Law,” he said.

    More than a half million non-British citizens immigrated to the United Kingdom in 2016. European Union rules prevented Britain from stopping migration from within Europe, but that brought European migrants.

    Coleman says Brexit, Britain’s exit from the E.U., will not necessarily stop the influx of immigrants from non-European Islamic nations.

    ‘England Is Not Going to be England Anymore’

    Great Britain was a factory for Muslim terrorists long before last week’s attack on Westminister Bridge by a British-born Muslim. At least 850 British citizens have left the U.K. to join ISIS.

    “Look, we have around 100 Sharia courts in this country. We’re the only western country with a functioning network of Sharia tribunals and councils. They’re dealing with marriages, divorce, even with criminal matters. They’re marrying children,” said Anne Marie Waters, from Sharia Watch.

    If demographic trends continue, British schools will change when most of the pupils are from non-British backgrounds, as will British foreign policy and military alliances.

    “England is not going to be England anymore,” Igler says.

    In its street protests against the Islamization of Britain, the English Defence League used to sing ‘we want our country back.’ If current demographic trends continue, it may be too late for that.

      Last night on the BBC1 10pm news there was a brief report about the lack of BME recruits into the Metropolitan police – only about 15% if I remember the numbers correctly. The report was saying how many years it will take to get recruitment to reflect the actual population and just briefly the figure of 40% popped up. This figure is disturbing enough – but with anything like this one can assume an underestimate. London is the UK’s capital city and even by these figures nearly half its people are probably recent immigrants. I know I shouldn’t be surprised (I do travel by tube) but I had thought a capital city should reflect its country.

      Now where does all this Jew hatred in France emanate from? The BBC and MSM do not tell us. The National Socialist party of Britain too is full of Jew hatred. Where does it come from?

      The fact that no one mentions it, is a clear indication who/what is the source of this new Jew hatred.

      We are entering a phase of history where Britain, France and even Germany, mainly EU nations, will be in the same cultural position as Nazi Germany.

      We know that Jews cannot wear a kippah in cities like Birmingham or London. Too Christian vicars have been advised not to wear dog collars in major cities of Britain. Ditto in Paris and other major cities in France.

      There is no easy solution to this except an exchange of populations. Muslims back to Pakistan and Bangladesh, and we accept the persecuted Christians in these countries. Else we are looking at a civil war that will make Bosnia look like a garden party. Innocents on both sides will, quite unnecessarily, suffer greatly.

      Brexit and Yellow Jackets is just the first phase. The Globalists and Left realise that too.

      Do we really want the USA and Russia to become allies, and set out to free European nations once again from neo-Nazism.

          Churches are being attacked all over France. Too, Christian and Jewish cemeteries.

          What is happening is the removal of all traces of a Judeao-Christian French heritage , so Muslims can claim that France has always been Muslim, or all French converted to Islam.

          This is exactly what happened in all countries where Muslims became rulers. All Muslim countries do this. Even Jordan when it was occupying Jerusalem.

          The most extreme of this MO is in Afghanistan. But India too, where the only ancient temples are in the south.

    All illegals to be deported without huge expense . A thorough investigation of all NI numbers given to those born overseas .
    All senior civil servants to have a pay cut and the retirement age raised to 65 , seventy five within three years . Their pensions taxed as unearned income at eighty percent .
    Foreign aid and the Foreign Office to be cut back by 75% . No more stomping the world stage for Blairite politicians .
    No more bad policies that hurt any Britons , our industries or businesses just so that bloated headed politicians can claim we are the worlds leaders in combatting climate change or whatever other fad the BBC pushes . Reopen coal mines .
    All our rubbish to be collected weekly and sorted into recyclables or not by prisoners , those that get the most recycled stuff earn parole .
    All rates in town centres for shops to be reduced 50% , ditto for any pubs .

      The problem of Islamisation will not go away, as Muslims know that sooner or later, they will enforce Sharia quitelegally via parliament.

      Then will start the burning of churches, and the persecution and murder of Atheists, Hindus, Jews and Christians, as is the normal MO. Atheists first as they are the worst, being in denial of Allah. Hindus next as they are idolaters. Jews and Christians last, as they are designated people of the Book.

    British citizenship revoked from Begum because her mother is Bangladeshi, which in turn gives Begum a second nationality so is theoretically not stateless.

    Now the bleeding hearts are saying her innocent baby is by birth a British citizen, so there shouldn’t be a reason to deny its entry into the UK. The baby’s father is Dutch (isn’t he ?), so surely the baby would also have dual nationality – therefore why should only Britain be responsible for its welfare, could not the Netherlands be involved too ?

      It is odds on that the family will appeal against the revocation of citizenship , helped by some human rights lawyer, and that the court of appeal will accept the appeal and this woman will be allowed back into the country. Even if the UK Supreme Court holds firm the case will end up at the ECJ or some other supranational court and the result will be the same.
      It becomes clearer with each passing month that the tentacles of the liberal Globalist left reach ever further. I think that there is now a strong case to say that right across the West democracy has been defeated , or at least seriously undermined, by a Globalist elite who have placemen and women in all our institutions to ensure that no matter the people want , or who they vote for , they have no ability to overturn the rule of the elite by democratic means. If the people wake up and realise this and start to protest they will be suppressed exactly as are the yellow vests in France.

    ADL has been hijacked by Obama man Greenblatt, into a vehicle for pushing left-wing Democratic politics
    (Strong support for BLM Black Lives Matter, even tho BLM elements been anti-Semitic)
    You can see from the graph’s title that like Chris Mooney’s book The Republican Brain all they are trying to do
    ..is create an NPC meme
    : “Republican man bad, terrorist ” …. “Lefty man good, peaceful”

    To that end they had to torture the data , to get the picture they wanted
    ..hence a normal murder by a Right winger is classed as an ideological crime
    …………. .and then the BBC R4 science guy interprets that as *terrorism* FFS !

    They put a weird Y-axis ?.. you assume “deaths”
    It’s actually “incidents” thus big Islamist attacks get counted as “1” , just the same as one normal murder

We also should not neglect her (British) unborn child and ensure s/he does not suffer the same fate as Ms Begum’s first two children.

    Britain’s response to this case should demonstrate our commitment to justice and the rule of law – qualities that are sorely missing in the death and destruction of Daesh. A transparent process is something guaranteed to every British citizen, regardless of their actions. There is nothing more that Daesh would want than for us to turn to retribution in response to their actions. Let us not afford them the luxury.”

    For a refreshing change the BBC is bleating about the ‘gender pay gap’ actually going up in some organisations!

    Do they not consider that perhaps this shows that there is no problem to be solved in the first place? If such a song and dance were made over a real problem that needed to be fixed (and could be fixed) it is inconceivable that it could actually get worse. Clearly the only problem is women not making the free choices SJWs want them to. Are we really supposed to believe that in this current climate businesses are actually getting more sexist?

    They must have watched Jordan Peterson’s interview with Cathy Newman where he debunks it. They just pretend they have never heard his key points and plough on regardless, causing so much hassle, tyranny and annoyance. A key symptom of the SJW illness seems to be imperviousness to evidence.

      Shamima Begum: IS teenager’s family consider legal action
      Shamima Begum

      Shamima Begum, who joined the Islamic State group in Syria aged 15, has been told she is to lose her UK citizenship. It is possible to strip the 19-year-old of her British nationality as she is eligible for citizenship in another country – Bangladesh – according to Whitehall sources.

      But Ms Begum’s family’s lawyer, Tasnime Akunjee, has promised to use “all legal avenues” to challenge the decision. He said: “Our position is that to all practical purposes she has been made stateless.”

      Ms Begum, from east London, was found in a Syrian refugee camp last week and gave birth to a son at the weekend. She told the BBC she wanted to come back to the UK to raise her child and did not want to be an IS “poster girl”.

      She is believed to be of Bangladeshi heritage but, when asked by the BBC, she said did not have a Bangladesh passport and had never been to the country. BBC Reality Check looks at how countries deal with people returning from IS.
      ****
      east is East, and West is West, but legal aid is always best.

      Luckily for her, in addition to Justin and the entire cubicle gardens of the BBC, BBC Reality Check is on it.

        At 15 she was old enough to go to the ME (without speaking Arabic) so at 19 she is quite capable of going to Bangladesh. Or Holland to her ‘husband’s’ country but we had better quit the EU soon or she will get here anyway.

    Toady just started the BBC’s campaign to bring the Jihadi bride/mother back ‘home’. Two interviewees (one an immigrant foreigner – solicitor, needless to say) both agree. Expect to hear more about the BBC’s campaign in the future.
    I have no doubt that contributors here will see through our muslim Home Secretary’s efforts to prove that he is tough on those who most of the public shun for good reason. He, as a muslim, is showing how he deals with such issues: temporarily sacrificing Begum to ultimately benefit the larger number of his cult perhaps even if they don’t see it that way at present. How our courts will deal with the issue is anyone’s guess. But I have an idea……
    After all, there are many thousands of those who would wish to return. In other arenas our own military display PTSD why not jihadi returnees? The State will be shoring up the claim that, “he was suffering from a mental health issue”. To be medically provable.
    A legal precedent has to be set and our muslim Home Secretary will have the legalities taken out of his hands: “Not me, but your own legal system allowed her back”.
    Expect even more ‘toughness’ to show simply to prove to the 86% of the population his stalwart ‘Britishness’ credentials and attempt to demonstrate that he sides with the home side. At prayer time, I would hope he ponders on why many of the unconvinced will never trust his motives and taqiyya.

Sorry – how ‘far right’ of me for thinking rape and murder are more pressing issues than gender neutral shampoo.

      And they are Christian
      (Not hordes of single Muslim men looking for easy money and easy sex)

      The UK policy is to watch the migrant boats let them land and intercept there ..to catch people smugglers
      Rather that intercept at sea, cos then the migrants jump in the sea and it turns into a big timewasting event.

      1. How much will the judge be paid to give her a lenient sentence?

        An undercover recording of a speech made by Muslim extremists in a marquee in Luton called for gay people to be thrown from the highest building, the Old Bailey has been told.

        The jury was told that the speech, which took place in the garden of a suburban home in Luton, was made to an audience that included men who are accused of encouraging support for Islamic State.

        The unidentified speaker, referred to only as “Mohammed” from west London, also criticised the Gay Pride parade held in London every summer.

    https://medium.com/@G_S_Bhogal/the-hate-factory-part-1-6135c9b16a1Shortly after settling into Luton, I ventured out into the town’s most infamous neighbourhood, Bury Park.

    It is home to a large Kashmiri community, and as such is strongly Islamic; clothes shops have well-covered mannequins, newsagents periodically close for prayer, pubs do not sell alcohol.

    But among this traditionalist infrastructure, elements of modernity have begun to bloom, from internet cafes to betting agents. The district now exists in a cultural limbo, somewhere between east and west, theocracy and secularism, past and present.

    The contradictions are readily apparent: the adhan (call to prayer) echoes from minarets, mingling with the screams of Lady Gaga from passing hatchbacks. Women walk by in burqas while carrying Hilfiger bags. Islamic charity banks sit on roadsides for locals to deposit garments, next to weapon-banks for twitchy youths to deposit knives.
    An example of Luton’s contradictions.

    It wasn’t long before I encountered a shifty group at a stall on Leagrave Road. They were twenty-something British Kashmiris dressed in thawbs, distributing leaflets about the Syrian Civil War.

    I decided to approach them. One of them handed me a leaflet, which showed corpses of children killed by bombs, their flesh scorched to flakes, their lips peeled away into vicious grins. Noticing my shock, the activist told me, “This is happening to Muslims in Syria and across the world. You wanna know why? Blame our so-called governments.”

    I asked the man what he thought of the West’s last intervention, in Iraq.

    Another member of the group stepped forward. He had a wild-eyed stare and a thick straggly beard like a frozen explosion. “Where you from?” He asked, eyeing me with paranoid saccades. “Are you even Muslim?”

    I am an atheist of Punjabi Sikh origin — the worst possible combination for the Kashmiri jihadis of Bury Park. To prevent a potential cold shoulder (or worse), I lied that I was indeed Muslim.

    They didn’t seem convinced. I tried to deflect attention to themselves, but they were only interested in talking about how evil the rafidah (Shia) and the kuffar (infidel) West were.

    I asked if I could take a photo, and was curtly denied. “If you don’t care about the brothers and sisters in Syria, you ain’t a Muslim.”

    Ctd, as these are our “moderate muslims” to the outside world, the parents and relatives of the vicous ISIS slags
    View at Medium.com
    As I later learned, the rickety little stall was a front for an international terrorist organisation responsible for more attacks in the UK than any other group. The organisation became nameless in 2010 for legal reasons, but in this report I’ll refer to it by its original name, al-Muhajiroun (“The Exiles”, or “The Emigrants”).

    I wanted to know more about them. I approached those I thought would be most privy to town gossip, the taxi drivers, and asked them.

    Inside, Luton Islamic Centre is sparsely decorated, lacking the filigreed ink patterns prevalent in other mosques. This is befitting of its Salafism, which seeks to return society to a simpler, “purer” form of existence.

    While undercover at the mosque, I found the people there friendly, if a little homophobic, antisemitic, and anti-Western. I overheard one worshipper tell another that someone was “worse than a Jew”. Meanwhile, the mosque’s chairman, Abdul Qadeer Baksh, called homosexuality an “abomination”.

    However, I had expected this kind of thinking, as it is common in Bury Park.

    One taxi driver, Ishi, said “They live in their own world. They think there’s a holy war, here, outside the supermarket.”

    I asked him if they were dangerous. “I wouldn’t mess with them,” said Ishi.

    I asked how they had been radicalised. Ishi told me that certain mosques in the town preached highly intolerant versions of Islam. He named one specific mosque, the Luton Islamic Centre.

    Since the BBC is full to the brim of fair-minded, impartial, objective, intrepid and courageous media workers, we look forward to them exploring all aspects of the Begun case rather than simply wringing their hands and insisting that the poor dear be allowed to return to live in serenity and comfort in the UK.

    No doubt a few of the intrepid ones will hop eagerly over to Syria to explore Syrian law ( if such a phenomenon exists) regarding marriage and offspring. Perhaps Begun will be declared a child refugee who fled intolerable and dangerous conditions in the UK and who, since she got married and bore a child in Syria, is now a Syrian citizen along with her husband and entitled to housing and other benefits from the state.

      On the other hand you could say that the policy devised by such shining lights of democratic probity as Wedgewood-Benn, Crosland, Bevan and others in the late 1940s, and continued shamelessly by Blair – whose aims were the destruction of the establishment and the monarchy – has come to precisely the fruition they hoped and schemed to achieve.

    Fascinating just how Teflon the BBC now feels it is under @ofcom @dcms and any government.

      Surely it’s obvious they use postive photos for their friends
      ..and then pick unflattering ones for non-favoured like Trump/Farage/Tommy etc. ?

      Seems such blatant bias

    Fatastic news that Anna Sourberry has left the Tories, not that she ever was a conservative, and was certainly in the wrong party. She is joined by a couple of other misfits Heidi Allen and Sarah Wollaston.

    So come the next election they can collect their severance and we will never have to hear from them again !

      Good riddance to bad rubbish, sniping from the sidelines and giving succour to all those who have been actively working to undermine our negotiating position with the EU.

    I wonder if the beebeestan isn’t triggering the law of unintended consequences with its endless pleading on behalf of the repulsive Shamima Beggin’. If every time they show the ghastly creature another million Brits go a little more islamophobic.

    A phobia is an irrational fear go figure…..look at 9 11 and whatever other shit visited upon the west

    repeat again:

    https://medium.com/@G_S_Bhogal/the-hate-factory-part-1-6135c9b16a1Shortly after settling into Luton, I ventured out into the town’s most infamous neighbourhood, Bury Park.

    It is home to a large Kashmiri community, and as such is strongly Islamic; clothes shops have well-covered mannequins, newsagents periodically close for prayer, pubs do not sell alcohol.

    But among this traditionalist infrastructure, elements of modernity have begun to bloom, from internet cafes to betting agents. The district now exists in a cultural limbo, somewhere between east and west, theocracy and secularism, past and present.

    The contradictions are readily apparent: the adhan (call to prayer) echoes from minarets, mingling with the screams of Lady Gaga from passing hatchbacks. Women walk by in burqas while carrying Hilfiger bags. Islamic charity banks sit on roadsides for locals to deposit garments, next to weapon-banks for twitchy youths to deposit knives.
    An example of Luton’s contradictions.

    It wasn’t long before I encountered a shifty group at a stall on Leagrave Road. They were twenty-something British Kashmiris dressed in thawbs, distributing leaflets about the Syrian Civil War.

    I decided to approach them. One of them handed me a leaflet, which showed corpses of children killed by bombs, their flesh scorched to flakes, their lips peeled away into vicious grins. Noticing my shock, the activist told me, “This is happening to Muslims in Syria and across the world. You wanna know why? Blame our so-called governments.”

    I asked the man what he thought of the West’s last intervention, in Iraq.

    Another member of the group stepped forward. He had a wild-eyed stare and a thick straggly beard like a frozen explosion. “Where you from?” He asked, eyeing me with paranoid saccades. “Are you even Muslim?”

    I am an atheist of Punjabi Sikh origin — the worst possible combination for the Kashmiri jihadis of Bury Park. To prevent a potential cold shoulder (or worse), I lied that I was indeed Muslim.

    They didn’t seem convinced. I tried to deflect attention to themselves, but they were only interested in talking about how evil the rafidah (Shia) and the kuffar (infidel) West were.

    I asked if I could take a photo, and was curtly denied. “If you don’t care about the brothers and sisters in Syria, you ain’t a Muslim.”

      Stew,
      Don’t we already have a Remain government? If not, what has the performance of the last 2.5 years been about?

    If the Left’s new darling, Shamima, is able to get a Bangla Deshi passport, and given that the father of one of the other three girls is barely able to speak English, the question I’d like to hear answered is….why the hell were any of them here in the first place?
    I suspect their combined nett contribution to the UK economy may leave a lot to be desired.
    Still, a Labour vote is a Labour vote.

        Incomprehensible Annunaki-may I ask what nationality your wife was before. There was an earlier piece your wrote Feb 19th, which was excellent, if only you were able to get that printed in as National Newspaper !- Yes I have read much of Professor Coleman, most enlightening. I have studied over 10 yrs the rise of the teachings of Islam as it has encroached upon our blind society who will believe and obey any order given no matter the consequences.
