Anne Marie Waters opposes jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women, gays, and others. Because of that, the Labour Party, whose leader has close links with the jihad terrorists of Hamas and Hizballah, is demanding the head of Boris Johnson aide Chloe Westley for daring to praise Waters in 2016. Yes, Labour is insane and suicidal.
“Boris Johnson urged to dismiss aide who called far-right activist a hero,” by Peter Walker, Guardian, July 26, 2019:
Labour has called for Boris Johnson to dismiss a new Downing Street staff member who has praised the work of a far-right, anti-Islam politician, while anti-racism campaigners expressed alarm at her appointment.
Chloe Westley, who will lead Johnson’s social media team at No 10, sent a now-deleted tweet in 2016 praising Anne Marie Waters as “a hero”. Waters, who has close links to the jailed anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson, leads the far-right For Britain party.
Waters co-founded the UK branch of the anti-Islam group Pegida alongside Robinson, has links to former BNP members and has described Islam as “evil”.
She stood to be leader of Ukip before quitting the party to form For Britain. The party argues that the UK’s Muslim population is causing a crisis, as it is growing rapidly and has beliefs that cannot be incorporated into a liberal democracy.
Jon Trickett, the shadow cabinet office minister, said: “It is profoundly shocking that someone who holds these views should be at the heart of government. She should never have been appointed in the first place and Mr Johnson must now move swiftly to dismiss her.”
Matthew McGregor, the campaigns director of group Hope Not Hate, said: “Anne Marie Waters leads a far-right party with virulent Islamophobia at its core. Calling her a hero was a serious error of judgment, as Westley later admitted. This appointment is deeply concerning.”
A Downing Street source confirmed Westley’s appointment, but gave no further comment….

Hope Not Hate is a known group of fascists

Corbyn and many of his supporters are FAR LEFT, but nobody ever labels them so. FAR is in any case a meaningless term unless the position from which one is FAR is defineable.
Robert Porter says
Let’s hope that Boris Johnson has the good judgement and guts to tell the far-left Jeremy Corbin to go to hell with his disgusting nonsense. Chloe Westley is spot on, the UK’s Muslim population “is causing a crisis, .. is growing rapidly and has beliefs that cannot be incorporated into a liberal democracy.” The U.K. needs to begin deporting all immigrant Muslims who display no intention to assimilate and harbour the usual Muslim hostile attitudes.
James says
Typical of leftists to find no problems in Islam, only in the people who do not want their way of life threatened by sharia, terrorism and fanatical islamists. They themselves think they will be safe from Islamists themselves, and the others do not matter.

David says
This tweet was sent three years ago! How sad is it that there must be left wingers who spend all their time looking through all the tweets ever made by people who dare to disagree with their political views, in order to see if they can find something to discredit them. I wonder how many hours it took to find this three year old tweet. By the way, Anne Marie Waters is NOT of course “far-right”. A former Labour party member with the courage to say what the majority of decent people in the U.K. think about Islam.
Jim Cox says
I support Anne Marie Watter’s right to free speech. The campaign against her is totally absurd.
Frank Scarn says
Anne Marie Waters’s thinking is as common sense-based as they come. No wonder the left hates her.
Savvy Kafir says
Yep. Anne Marie Waters is probably Britain’s only hope, short of civil war. All counter-jihadis should join & support her For Britain party — Brits & non-Brits alike.
clive delmonte says
Well said, Mr Scarn !
Tom says
It has started. The left and the Muslim Brotherhood operatives will be attempting to find anything they can on Boris’ team that they can use to discredit Boris.
We all know the game that is about to be played will not end well for the left as most Brits now have little respect for the Corbyn Labour Party and are fed up with the narrative from Corbyn et al.
Simon Brockwell says
Islam’s adherents and deflectors really do have their boot on the throat of Western democracies. Remember that this has taken place merely days after some Hitler-loving imam was given a national media platform by the BBC to grill Conservative Party leadership contenders on the spurious subject of Islamophobia and, of course, they all cravenly folded. (Only afterwards did the reliably and predictably Islam-enabling BBC discover the imam’s Hitler-love and expressed its regrets at having provided him with a platform – mercifully I don’t pay the tax, the compulsory licence fee, that funds this egregious media outfit. The proper response to that mealy-mouthed imam would have been “Islamophobia? It’s a rubbish neologism which doesn’t form any part of my vocabulary and shouldn’t belong in the vocabulary of any sane and informed person!”. Anne Marie Waters IS a hero and one day Peter Walker and Matthew McGregor will, on behalf of their daughters (if they have any – which I doubt) will eventually come to appreciate this fact.
Jim Cox says
How in Hades did we get to this point? Radical Islam denigrates women, uses children as suicide bombers, sees nothing wrong with eliminating us in the most brutal fadhion, and yet the Left defends them! Voters, wake up! All the Western democracies are at risk, for the Left and the
Jihadis share this goal– the suppression and criminalization of free speech, particularly of the Jewish or Christian variety, & even speech based upon Judeo-Christian ptinciples. Later will come more overt forms of suppression such as beatings, rape of men & women, and of course beheadings, filmed for the edification of the citizenry.
Caroline says
Hear hear. Our cowardly politicians in the West have long since capitulated to Islam. Remember the Rusdie affair of 1989? It frightened the politicians then and ever since they have been in Dhimmitude. Appeasement failed in 1939. Have we learnt nothing?
As to your other points, I quite agree. I don’t know how long we have living a free life. I was on a train last month returning from Reading. We reached Slough. A man got on and was standing in front of me. I didn’t notice as I was looking down at my phone. When we got up to leave, I noticed that he was staring at me with utter hatred. Around my neck I wore a cross.

I hope that yearly Hezbollah parade is stopped and whoever protests that is arrested, and deported if illegal.
ntesdorf says
Chloe Westley, Boris Johnson’s social media team leader is praising Anne Mspot-on in praising Aarie Waters as a heroine. Waters, aslso supports the hero of anti-fascism, anti-Jihad activist Tommy Robinson.
Wellington says
The term “far-right” has lost as much meaning as the term “racist.” Yes, there are certainly far-right kooks out there and there indeed are real racists (not all of them white btw), but when terms are way overused and abused they become a joke—like “far-right” and “racist.”
As for another term mentioned above, i.e., “anti-Islam,” this falls into a different category, that of stupidly holding people accountable for being accurate. No knowledgeable person of Islam, and assuming such person has retained their common sense and moral intelligence, can possibly be anything but “anti-Islam.” Ditto for being “anti-Nazism.”
Political correctness, multiculturalism, willful ignorance, cowardice and often times just plain stupidity are slowly killing the West. Many Labour Party members of the UK come to mind as an example of such monstrous errors.
Bigglesthefrog says
Absolutely spot on Wellington.
If people are not listening to Anne Marie Waters talking about the dangers of radical Islam, they they will be experiencing a lot more of it soon. The number and the speed of population increase of Muslims in the UK today is startling. One doesn’t need much of a qualification in Maths to realise that in the very near future they will become the majority in our county and we, the indigenous people will be the minority. Just think how that is going to turn out !!

So great to have Robert Spencer back!!
Off topic—anybody know how Tricia and SomeHistory are doing?

I have not heard anything, but I hope they are doing well. I know that Somehistory went in for eye surgery about a week ago, and he had said that it would be at least a couple of weeks before he would be back. I hope it went well.

Thanks Graven,
I hope it went well, too.

“Labour has called for Boris Johnson to dismiss a new Downing Street staff member who has praised the work of a far-right, anti-Islam politician……”
‘Far-right’? Since when? Where did this nonsensical rubbish appear? Oh yes, The Guardian! Where else should we expect? The trouble with these trendy ‘liberal’ (sic) items of acid-snowflake humanoid flotsam is that their heads have now penetrated so far into their own proverbial lumbar tuberosities that they have totally lost sight of their social and moral compasses. So, blinded by their own presumed righteousness, they cannot understand that the reason for the entire socio-political landscape of decent, commonsense, middle-of-the road humanity now appearing long way to their RIGHT is because they themselves have veered disastrously off course a long way to the LEFT. No, they can’t possibly have. The maps are wrong, of course.
vlparker says
Calling Anne Marie Waters ‘far right’ is ludicrous. Except for her sensible stand on islam she is a leftist through and through.

Labouring for the caliphate. Profoundly shocking.
Hope Not Hate, is this some kind of un-funny joke? Deeply concerning.

Huuuuh!? Gasp!
We can’t have foes of jihad terror running around here!
We just want jihad terrorists running on the rampage!

Labour is asking Britons to commit national suicide by embracing Islam and communism. They are lying to everyone. Such scoundrels.

I hope Boris Johnson tells them to take a flying leap.
Richard Kruse says
That’s how bad it has become in Britain. Iff you call out the Muslim rape gangs or complain about Islamic atrocities, you are labelled as “Far Right.” There is NO standard of common sense in our twisted media.

I live wayyy down in the southern hemisphere at some point of a longitudinal line & just yelled at the top of my voice “GO BORIS !!!” and then leapt into my bunker with 3 tin hats on my head !
Je suis Charlie Hebdo !
I am Tommy Robinson !
Christopher Watson says
Anne-Marie is one of the most sensible and intelligent people involved in the debate about the insanities of the Islamic take-over of the British public debating space. Chloe Westley has called Anne Marie a Hero? Quite right.
Of course, the article calls Anne Marie ‘far-right’. They don’t know the meaning of the word. Anne Marie is simply adding to the debate about the influence and actions of some Islamists in Britain and the world. But Trickett and McGregor want to stop any voices against these moslems who rape little children, perform FGM, abuse their wives and daughters and who are turning parts of Britain into mirror-images of Pakistan or Bangladesh.
Rather than tell us their views on what Ms Westley said they simply want her shut down and dismissed. They obviously have a very advanced view of what constitutes democracy. Perhaps they would actually tell us what Ms Westley has said which is wrong?
Perhaps Tommy Robinson isn’t a Scruton or a Murray but he speaks for the ordinary ‘man in the street’. He says what most of us think. He has been put into prison for speaking out against rape gangs who have committed unspeakable acts against vulnerable under-age girls. And these ‘animals’ have been awarded over £600,000 in legal aid while Tommy has been given nothing.
Perhaps Mr Johnson ought to look at the Robinson case and re-consider the actions of the court and possibly consider a pardon or a decrease in the sentence.
observer says
Beautifully spoken Christopher Watson.
Terry Gain says
The Far Far Left Guardian refuses to call Labour Far Far Left and Islam Far Far Right. These dishonest labels mean nothing. It’s like saying racist in America.
KWJ says
What is Hope Not Hate really hoping for? I read the Wikipedia page about them and articles on their own website. Once again, it’s another organization that leaves out vital information as to the causes of anti-Islam reactions and separately anti-Muslim reactions. They also do polls that include people’s feelings about “identity change,” as if people are required to support or like such identity change.
Wikipedia mentions Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller as anti-Muslims but I have watched many videos by Robert, this website and his many books and it’s clear that the issue is with Islam and its history, it’s sharia laws, promotion of hate or criticism of non-Muslims as identified in Britain in Islamic schools, imams and sheiks and sharia practices not following British laws. For example, Theresa May did a video saying how child marriages are illegal after a number of Muslims engaged in child marriage. The Muslim Brotherhood’s goals are clear as well as Muslim organizations such as the ISNA, Hizb-ut-Tahrir who has held conferences at hotels in the US outright saying they want to see the Islamic flag flying over our Capitol building and in Britain same thing but over Buckingham Palace. Numerous examples abound.
In Germany school teachers have talked about alarmingly Salafist kids repeating anti-secularist Islamic views, bullying non-Muslim kids, and chauvinist Islamic views of women.
They said Katie Hopkins referred to Muslims as “cockroaches.” She went to Israel and did a video where she also interviewed Muslims, one a young Palestinian. But Robert doesn’t say things like that and if articles discuss
Muslims who do or say alarming, false or repugnant things, that speaks for itself-the Muslim reveals that.
Clearly writers here on JW are scholarly and well-informed. Naturally speakers will speak to a group that is interested in listening to them. This includes ex-Muslims such as Hamad Abdel Samad who grew up in Egypt with a cleric father, speaks four languages and has been ridiculously called an Islamophobe which is utterly ridiculous. It is hardly just the far right that is anti-Islam because Islamic values oppose our secular laws and Western way of life.
As long as people don’t organize violent acts or say things like “kill them all” or such, people are NOT extremists at all to oppose the very obvious, stated goal of spreading Islam and sharia law. I do not support far right white supremacists who take pages from Hitler which is nuts. Not every single Muslim wants a world caliphate of Islamic domination but powerful and well-funded groups do so an ordinary or lax Muslim has little control. Our governments are abetting such powerful and well-funded entities.
They want British to just lay over for “identity change” which is more than that. What constitutes identity? England’s identity? Demographics? Form of government? Culture? What’s the difference if it were a bunch of communists?
To smooth over the division that Muslims also cause (non-terrorist Muslims) and the Muslim organizations is unacceptable and creates a skewed victimhood.
Things won’t magically get better with these tactics. Anti-fascism groups are looking more like police state proponents not freedom lovers. Some also appear to be hypersensitive about academics, facts and truths.
One wants to be polite but you really can’t be. Ibn Waraqq expressed this in the forward to Andrew Bostam’s 700 page book on jihad and Islam. There’s no way around opposing ideologies without hurting feels. Islam and the Qur’an hurts non-Muslims’ feelings though most of us are not weak of mind. Islam is also blasphemous of Christianity and Judaism and their prophets yet they are not making such a fuss about blasphemy laws like Islamic bullying.

The BBC advertise all their jobs in the Guardian. Advertising revenue is about the only thing keeping ‘The Guardian’ afloat (it’s regularly losing £millions). The Great British Public are forced to pay £billions to keep the BBC going. The BBC spends some of that £billions on advertising in ‘The Guardian’. The Great British Public is therefore inadvertently subsidising the continued existence of this ragbag of glorified bathroom-stationery.

As a proud member of the For Britain Party. Anne Marie Waters is our only hope.

Ann Marie Waters is not right wing. She is rightly combating sharia in Britain.
