Nigel Farage said last Friday that he wants Gerard Batten out as UKIP leader for naming Tommy Robinson his adviser on rape gangs and prison reform. Farage complained about Batten’s “fixation with Tommy Robinson and discussing Islam.” And it’s true: Batten has been saying some disturbing things about Islam. What makes them most disturbing is that they all happen to be true.
Consider his claim that Islam permits the taking of “sex slaves” from among Infidel girls, and that this is the ideological justification for the Rotherham grooming gangs. When he said this in a television interview with SkyNews, his interviewer, one Gillian Joseph, expressed her distaste and disbelief. She first described his appearance at what she called an “anti-Islam rally.”
Batten promptly corrects her: “It was not an anti-Islam rally, but a rally for justice for women and girls.”
Joseph then insists that Batten had “attributed them [sex crimes] to a particular religion. That’s not the ideology of Islam.”
Batten replies “It’s in the hadith and Qur’an… If he [Muhammad] did something, it’s okay for other people..”
Joseph repeats: “That’s not the ideology of Islam.” She continues: “You’re attacking the entire religion of Islam which doesn’t espouse…to actually advocate sex before marriage.”
Batten answers: “It does allow people — their followers — to take sex slaves who are not of the same religion. Kuffars, infidels can be taken as sex slaves. It’s one of the conditions of warfare that they have.”
Joseph then engages in comical tu-quoque:
“When you speak about particularly the situation in Rotherham, and that was something that you spoke about on the platform, you isolate that as a Muslim crime. You never, for instance, speak about the crimes of the Catholic Church in terms of sexual abuse of children. Why is it that you don’t speak on a broad spectrum? You isolate it to Islam.”
Batten replies:
“Well, I’m.. I was on there talking about specific victims. And there’s a very good book on this whole subject, called Easy Meat, by Patrick McLaughlin, which details all of this over about 30 years, 20 or 30 years, and how it has been swept under the carpet. And it’s predominately people who follow that religion who are causing this problem on a national scale, which is the industrialized sexual exploitation, for money, and for their own perverted purposes. So that happens to be a fact at the moment. I’m happy to condemn pedophilia and child abuse wherever they occur.”
The Qur’an is clear on the subject of sex slaves. It tells Muslims to take captives when they meet unbelievers in battle: “Now when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens” (47:4). It also refers to slave women belonging to the Islamic prophet Muhammad as spoils of war: “O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful to you your wives to whom you have paid their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses of those whom Allah has given you as spoils of war” (33:50). There are seven different words for “slave” in the Qur’an, but the most common expression, which appears fifteen times, is “those whom your right hand possesses,” which refers specifically to sex slaves. Robert Spencer notes that
Surah Al- Muminun (23:6) and Sarah Al-Maarij (70:30) in identical wording, draw a distinction between spouses and “those whom one’s right hand possesses” (female slaves), while making clear that sexual intercourse with either is permissible.’
The Egyptian Sheikh Abu-Ishaq al-Huwayni declared in May 2011 that “we are in the era of jihad,” which meant Muslims could take slaves. He later elaborated that Jihad is only between Muslims and infidels. Spoils, slaves, and prisoners are only to be taken in war between Muslims and infidels. The prisoners and spoils are distributed among the fighters. These include men, women, children, wealth, and so on.
“When a slave market is erected, one in which both slaves and sex-slaves are sold, the latter are called in the Qur’an milk al-yamin, which means “that which your right hand possesses” [Koran 4:24]. This verse from the Qur’an is still in force, and has not been abrogated. The milk al-yamin are the sex-slaves. You go to the market, look at the sex-slave, and buy her. She becomes like your wife, (but) she doesn’t need a (marriage) contract or a divorce like a free woman. When a Muslim man wants a sex slave, he just goes to the market, chooses the woman he likes, and buys her.”

If the British police are not HUNTING DOWN, INVESTIGATING, SPYING ON and ARRESTING the abusers of British girls, then it is obvious something is VERY WRONG and politicians have a DUTY TO SPEAK OUT IN DEFENCE OF THE VULNERABLE BRITISH VICTIMS.
Is the RAPE OF BRITISH GIRLS BY PAKISTANI MUSLIMS NOT A FEMINIST ISSUE?
Feminists, please explain why you ENDORSE the RAPE OF WHITE BRITISH GIRLS BY MUSLIMS?

“Farage complained about Batten’s “fixation with Tommy Robinson and discussing Islam.” ”
Nigel is wrong. The entire future of the UK is dependent upon fixating on the government’s treatment of Tommy Robinson and discussing – and dealing with Islam factually.
Nigel Farage though critical for Brexit, should now step aside completely and let UKIP prosper with Gerard Batten.
Also…perhaps UKIP, For Britain, and Britain First could combine their talents and form a new party. Major players could be Gerard Batten, Tommy Robinson, Anne Marie Waters, and Jayda Fransen. The good Lord Pearson could be used as a consultant.

Key # 1 “and dealing with Islam factually”
Key #2 Enforce the law
Tony Holland says
yes exactly my thoughts,combine our fringe parties into one cohesive unit under the UKIP banner,put aside petty differences in the the respective leaderships and let us build one strong PRO PATRIOTIC BRITISH party to try and turn things around before the subhumans bring sharia law into OUR country,forget Nigel Farage,he has been nobbled.
James Lincoln says
Tony Holland,
Agree. The “fringe” parties should all be folded in under the UKIP banner, lead by Gerard Batten..
That is the only way that the UK stands a chance.
dumbledoresarmy says
Yes.
Batten, to judge from the article posted and commented upon above by Mr Fitzgerald, is well-informed and sensible. He looks like leadership material. I’d love to see him get in the same room as Gavin Boby. They’d be a force to be reckoned with.
Paul says
Nigel Farage only has an issue with Eastern European people
being in the UK, but he’s lukewarm on the cult of Mohammedanism –
and that’s being charitable. But we know he is genuine and can
empathise with people’s concerns because he’s often been filmed
in pubs holding a pint of beer, so that’s okay then :

Troubling to me that the British state avoided confronting the rape gangs for fear of being accused of being Islamophobic. Sacrifice the bodies and minds of little girls because of cowardice l. Now England refuses to give safe haven to Asia Bibi out of the same fear. Shame on England’s political leadership! Shame on all the European countries where this cowardice shows itself.
PRCS says
Well, I hope Gerard Batten and Australian PM Morrison each have the other’s telephone number and email address.

Hey, Marc.
Posting today was lightning fast.
Thank you!

Gerard Batten, now here’s a mensch.

As for the Islamic world of female sex slaves, both girls and women, this brutal and callous affront, against all the is decent, good and right, started very early in the history of Islam with founder and prophet of Islam, Muhammad. As revealed in the book THE HISTORY OF JIHAD FROM MUHAMMAD TO ISIS by Robert Spencer. For after one of the early war victories of the followers of that specific time, the new religion of Islam, Muhammad received convenient revelation that his Muslim warriors have every right to own and use their female war captives. As page 32 of Mr. Spencer’s book reads “The Qur’an permitted them to have sexual intercourse with slaves girls captured in battle- ‘those captives whom your right hand possess.’ [4:24]” This book further explains and exposes on the exact same page that “The enslavement and rape women were taken for granted.” This Islamic wickedness of misogyny continued and still continues through time. As other scholars and authors on Islam do further expose that this horrific treatment of women into sexual slavery by their own families. Women are not viewed and equals in Islamic countries, they are thought of as property” and the “selling women and girls for prostitution is just the dehumanizing complement to forcing women and girls to cover their bodies and hair with veil.” [1] Likewise, a former Muslim who is now a Christian also revealed information about Islam and females sex slaves. For is exposed that “Slavery is cherished in the Qu ‘ran and non -Muslim girls and women are used a sex slaves. Also there is no protection for women in Islam; they are exposed to every kind of abuse on one hand, but on the other hand they are responsible for the temptation which afflicts men.” [2] Wow, all this cruel Islamic misogyny and not regard for human rights has its origin in the founder prophet of Islam, Muhammad. As shown by two Christian writers who in their book inform the reader that “Muhammad endorsed enslavement of all types…he endorsed sex –slavery as a gift from Allah, and enjoyed offering sex slaves as gifts…” So since Muhammad is view by Muslim as the perfect man and a great example it’s not surprise that, in time, Islam is enslaved more people than any other culture.” [3]

Slavery is a heinous part of Islam is a topic that the apologists for that religion don’t like have people bring up .Nevertheless one writer revealed that “The senior clerics of Saudi Arabia’s highest body declared “Slavery is part of Islam and whoever wants it abolished is an infidel.” [1] Likewise, a former Muslim had exposed in his book that “Slavery is recognized as an institution and slave is considered both a thing as a person.” [2] Therefore Islam regardless of what the apologist for this religion do claim has not regard for human rights

God bless Gerard Batten!

Islam, the only region that does not permit sex before marriage? How sweet, but now I understand it. As you muslim men can not have sex before marriage and can restrain yourselves, that is why you take a donkey or take any woman or child just like that from the street. Rally good thinking, compliments! (sarc).
but rapists will be raped in their next live, to learn and feel how horrible it is.
How it changes your views on life and MEN. It follows your whole life and those men should get such a punishment, that they will watch out to repeat it and all western countries should be deeply ashamed for trying to push al their dirt under the carpet and let the beast roam around. And you governments should even be more ashamed. Disgusting you are!.
What you do, you will get back, action and reaction !
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
It seems nearly impossible for a public figure to tell the factual truth about Islam.
Michael Copeland says
A refinement to the Koran quotation above, 47:4.
This is cited above as:
“Now when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks…”
The words “in battle” do not appear in the Arabic original: they are interpolated by the tainted translator as a means of deflecting attention away from Islam’s doctrines.
Strictly they should appear in square brackets to indicate this.
