You won’t hear the UK’s largest Muslim group, the Muslim Council of Britain, come out and condemn the rampant problem of Muslim rape gangs that have plagued the UK. Nor will it say anything about Sadiq Khan’s London, which has become a hotbed of crime, where jihad preachers speak and recruit freely. An Islamic State jihadist also “tried to create jihadist child army in east London.” A “knife crime epidemic has also struck London,” and a Muslim migrant “acid gang” was sentenced in January following violent, unprovoked attacks on gays. London gangs also include “the Mali Boys,” which are becoming more “organised, ruthless and driven by drugs profits.” Mali is a Muslim country plagued by Islamic rebel groups aiming to impose strict Islamic law across the country.
What you will hear in the UK, however, is how “Islamophobic” the UK has become, despite its infamous reputation linked to Muslim migration. Even Labor Party Muslim politician Naz Shah once retweeted (with no political consequences) that victims of Muslim rape gangs should shut up for the good of diversity.
In this case, the BBC is being accused of not reporting enough about so-called “Islamophobia.”
Despite the current deplorable state of the UK, which is linked to its immigration policies, Metro News reported:
The country’s leading Muslim representative body has written to the BBC to raise its concerns about the ‘lack of proportionate coverage given to the Conservative Party’s institutional Islamophobia’.
As usual, the Muslim Council of Britain levies a serious accusation of “institutional Islamophobia” with no adequate explanation of why, beyond certain “offensive” comments that may have emerged from the Conservative camp. The MCB does not recognize why there there may be pervasive concerns about Islam and consider whether those concerns might be valid. It is easier to shut down all discourse with the “Islamophobia” battering ram if anyone says something that the MCB believes offends Islam. Let’s hope that the BBC will stand up to the MCB, but a good piece of advice would be not to hold your breath.
“Largest Muslim group says BBC has ‘failed to sufficiently report’ on Tory Islamophobia,” by Basit Mahmood, Metro News, December 9, 2019:
The country’s leading Muslim representative body has written to the BBC to raise its concerns about the ‘lack of proportionate coverage given to the Conservative Party’s institutional Islamophobia’.
The letter by the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), addressed to BBC director general Tony Hall, says the BBC has failed to be ‘impartial and consistent in its coverage on similar issues’ and calls on the public broadcaster to give racism against Muslims ‘equal importance’.
Written by the MCB Secretary General Harun Khan, the letter goes on to state that given the widespread prevalence of Islamophobia, both in society and at ‘every level of the Conservative Party’, which is a major cause for concern to British Muslims, the ‘failure of the BBC to report on this extensively during this election is deeply disappointing’.
The letter states: ‘Islamophobia is not just prevalent in political discourse, but also in society and on the streets. ‘Religious hate crime in England and Wales rose by 40% to its highest level in 2017-18, with more than half of all religiously-motivated attacks being directed at Muslims. ‘Islamophobia in our country’s governing party, therefore, is of huge concern to British Muslims, and the failure of the BBC to report on this extensively during this election is deeply disappointing and neglects to represent an issue of great importance to society at large.’
It adds: ‘The BBC, as a public service broadcaster, has a responsibility to report fairly on issues within all political parties that affect society. ‘Yet, particularly during this General Election, it has not given due prominence to the Conservative Party’s systemic problem with Islamophobia.’…
mortimer says
The Muslim Council of Britain is no doubt a Muslim Brotherhood front organization. The MB is a terrorist organization.
Nothing will ever satisfy the MB but a complete submission of Britain to Sharia law and the adoption of Sharia into the UK constitution as superior to Common Law. That is what they are doing here: namely, they are trying to impose Sharia blasphemy law over and above the laws on the books. There is currently no applicable blasphemy law in UK.
The House of Lords committee revising the law on free speech made it clear that the right to criticize and lampoon religions is a right in UK. However, in practice everyone is afraid in the UK to offend anyone … with one exception only … conservatives of all kinds may be criticized ad libitum and slandered with impunity as well. Any conservative fighting back will be accused of ‘hate’, but it is fine to hate conservatives in the UK and to maliciously libel them. The attempt to silence conservative views in Britain is all but complete thanks to the effectiveness of the unholy RED-GREEN AXIS OF EVIL in the UK.
Corbyn is an secret Trotskyist and a secret Islamist at the same time. Quite the trick, Corbie.
Jayell says
The Muslim Council of Britain is described in Wikipedia as a ‘democratic’ organisation formed from delegates from muslim organisations (mosques, schools, etc.) around the country. But no-one necessarily actually VOTES for these delegates – who are simply sent from organisations that are not themselves democratically constituted. So one has to re-define ‘democracy’ – again!
Now, here’s the joke. “Its vision statement is ’empowering the Muslim community towards achieving a just, cohesive and successful British society’…”
So, one presumes that, according to these muslims, British society was essentially NOT ‘just, cohesive and successful’ before they arrived. Strange, because everyone else seems to have the impression that the opposite is the case, since United Kingdom is the home of Magna Carta, the inventor of modern Parliamentary Democracy with a reputation for a highly cohesive and civilised society and only one serious civil war in nearly 1,000 years, and a proven leader in technological and social innovation. Perhaps the MCB should point us towards a muslim nation that has a better track-trecord? So we already achieved ‘a just, cohesive and successful British society’ centuries before there were any muslims in the UK. Futhermore, many people in the UK would attest to the transparent deterioration in the quality of life in the UK ever since muslims appeared in any numbers. Or does the MCB really mean ‘a just, cohesive and successful British society’ within THEIR own terms that they can exploit and control for THEIR own ends? Aslo, since when did an uninvited 4% minority have the right to presume dictate anything that happens in British society? That’s not very ‘just’, is it?
Giacomo Latta says
I am somewhat curious as to how these muslim organizations govern themselves internally. Do they vote for their president, secretary and vice-presidents (beginning to smell like a democracy) or do they slash the neck of or poison opponents until one person remains alive for each post?
mortimer says
THE LIBELLOUS SLANDER of Islamophobia is Gas Lighting and Psychological Projection.
The fake slur of ‘Islamophobia’ is a perfect example of GAS-LIGHTING … pretending that another person is MENTALLY ILL in order to dismiss his valid concerns.
The slander of ‘Islamophobia’ is also a PSYCHOLOGICAL PROJECTION … transferring one’s own guilty behaviors onto ‘others’ and scapegoating them for it.
In fact, AL WALAA WAL BARAA is the Islamic mirror image of what ‘Islamophobia’ is supposed to be.
AL WALAA WAL BARAA (comradeship with Muslims and hostility towards dirty kafirs) is an authentic, canonical, compulsory and universally required teaching of Islam that ALL Muslims are obligated to believe and practice for eternal salvation.
AL WALAA WAL BARAA is actually KAFIR-O-PHOBIA … hatred and hostility directed by Muslims against the dirty kufaar ‘for the sake of Allah’.
Clive Delmonte says
There is no such condition or state which can be represented as “Islamophobia”. It does not exist. The term is just a device to shut up people who wish to comment on Islamic-related matters such the jihadi phenomenon, gang rape by Muslims, FGM, “honour killings” always of women, forced marriage, intercourse with minors, etc., etc. People who wish to discuss such matters are not “Islamophobic”.
mortimer says
Clive, to be fair, there are people who hate Islam and Muslims without any knowledge of Islam except for what they learned from news reports of atrocities. Such people are perhaps in a very limited sense ‘phobic’ in a colloquial … but not a strictly clinical … way. Clinical ‘phobia’ refers to involuntary physical reactions that occur when a memory of fear is triggered.
When you assess the risk of Islam and its jihad doctrine soberly and in a scholarly manner, it is more in the domain of political science than in the domain of psychiatry.
mortimer says
I bet that a fair assessment of all religiously-motivated crimes in UK would show that Muslims FAR EXCEED all other groups COMBINED in the promotion and expression of hate.
Muslims are canonically REQUIRED by Sharia law to HATE the dirty kufaar ‘FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH’ and to show them hostility.
The requirement to HATE THE KUFAAR is normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
-Imam Abdul-Latif ibn Abdur-Rahman Rahimullah said, “It is not possible for someone to realize Tawheed (Islamic faith) and act upon it, and yet not be HOSTILE against the mushrikeen (i.e. wrong worshippers). So anyone who isn’t HOSTILE against the mushrikeen, then it cannot be said that he acts upon Tawheed nor that he realizes it.” [ad-Durar as-Saniyyah 8/167]
-“The doctrine of al Walaa wal Baraa is the REAL IMAGE for the actual practice of this faith.” – source “Al Walaa wal Baraa According to the Aqeedah of the Salaf”, by Sheikh Muhammad Saeed al Qatani, authoritative Saudi Sharia lawyer and imam at the Abu Bakr and Al Furqan Mosques in Mecca.
Jason says
folks,
the IIIT muslim think tank created the term ‘islamophobia’ themselves to deter, squash, intimidate anyone who looked cross eyed at a muslim and to stigmatize and to beat down critics to advance a totalitarian cause and silence them. this is pure bullshit on the part of the muslim brotherhood and they are definitely terrorists and it is time people started fighting back. they are very bad people, very bad.
Dianne says
When muslims arrive in a western democracy, they keep a low profile and make few demands to make a good first impression. then the muslims gather and request recognition of shitaria being applied in their community; always working with naive idiots called progressives. then when they gain critical mass they infiltrate key institutions and start getting their way everywhere. if someone complains they cry ‘islamophobia’ and the shit begins. then they confront anyone who hates them as rogue and more crap continues. then they want to impose sharia and fight against the host country. the ideal islamic state is saudi arabia where sharia is law and enforced with barbaric brutality, ie, heads chopped off, hands cut off, tongues cut out, etc. there is nothing so low in the universe as islam. this is called IRICI, Incubation, recognition, infiltration, confrontation, imposition.

mortimer says
Dianne, I agree with much of your assessment. The Leftards may know what Islam is like deep down, but they need Muslims as political allies in an unholy Red-Green Axis. The Leftards ignore the jihad doctrine and gas light anyone who draws attention to it. The Leftards know that jihad is a dangerous thing to them as well, but they are playing a devious game.
James Lincoln says
Excellent exchange between Dianne and mortimer…
Sun says
I agree, Diane.
The problem is that the “critical mass” is already accomplished when Muslims make up around 5% of the population. Muslims in Europe make up an estimated 5% of the population, in Germany around 6%. In Germany, they already changed the public life dramatically to the detriment of the non-Muslim inhabitants.
Michael Copeland says
Did the Muslim Council complain about anti-semitism in the Labour Party?
Barguest says
Yes, they complained they didn’t see enough of it…
James Lincoln says
Barguest,
Sometimes you laugh because it’s funny, sometimes you laugh because it’s true…
Save Europe says
I noticed something VERY interesting here in the U.K. When people ‘went’ for Corbyn, within days the Islamophobia card got played. This has happened, now, on numerous occasions. It’s very, obviously, an attempt to prevent anyone from analysing the question – why so much anti-semitism in the Labour Party?
The answer, as we ALL know – Muslims, en masse, mostly vote for Labour, and the Labour Party crave their votes.
Christopher Watson says
Islam is becoming more and more a power in Britain. This complaint to the BBC would never have happened a few years ago; nor taken seriously. Now we expect it and the BBC will roll over, apologise and promise never to do it again. But the people still do not take it seriously. According to one poll 80% of the public still have no conception of what Islam really is. When one considers their beliefs – FGM, child rapes, killing those wishing to leave the religion, treatment of women and girls, and all the other pre-historic beliefs – why were they allowed into our country? Now they are here, and they are beginning to exert real power. Soon they will begin to control the ordinary man-in-the street. Rules on the sale of alcohol will be tighter, moslem marriage rules will be accepted, polygamy will be accepted or, at least, ignored, halal meat will be normal and don’t even think of being a Jew.
Kerry Wade says
I agree with Clive, and, Mortimer there is no such thing as phobic where Islam is concerned – stop attempting to lecture people on here.
Bharat Patel says
The term “Islamophobia” is used wrongly by the supporters of Jihad and their sympathisers to describe the real and justifiable fear of Islamist ideology and the acts of terrorism and aggression associated with it. Open minded and moderate Muslims and non-Muslims need to condemn this term and take a stand against it wherever and whenever it is used.
Pragmatist says
What ‘open minded and moderate Muslims?
gravenimage says
UK’s largest Muslim group slams BBC for not condemning “Tory Islamophobia”
…………….
More demands from Muslims that even criticism of Jihad terror be crushed. Muslims will not be happy until even the mildest criticism of Islam is criminalized.
And here’s the kind of blatant Taqiyya you get from the Muslim Council of Britain:
“London terror attack: Muslim Council of Britain says London attack during Ramadan ‘shows they respect neither life nor faith'”
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/london-bridge-terror-attack-muslim-council-of-britain-condemnation-respect-neither-life-nor-faith-a7771866.html
Not the implication that since this terror attack took place during Ramadan that it must have had nothing to do with Islam. But the fact is that Ramadan is the “month of Jihad”–attacks on non-Muslims are actually especially encouraged during this time.
Infidel says
Too many Tories are panderers of Muslims. I’ve been rather impressed that Sajid Javed is not, and that he is, for all practical purposes, a MINO. I also have great hopes that Priti Patel will rein in the political correctness that has afflicted British law enforcement
Save Europe says
Absolute rubbish!!!
As a Limey, ALL I have had to put up with for the last decade, is an increasingly Leftist BBC, over-promoting and over-representing Muslims at EVERY opportunity.
Corbyn was pulled up for permitting anti-semitism to become prevalent in his Marxist Labour Party. Correct!
I’ve also seen a copious amount of Muslims constantly screeching about Boris Johnson’s comments on the Burka. Solely. That’s all he said! He criticised a type of attire! Correct, AND big deal!!!
He IS correct! I don’t want to see these Nazi garments EVER, in the U.K.!
Scott Carlson says
Muslims calling you Islamaphobic is a psychological terrorism tactic. It’s main purpose is to intimidate you into submission/silencing you. If you have a business or anything you can lose, Muslims will make sure you will lose that.
Islamaphobia card needs to be banned as it never leads to a good ending because there are always ignorant non-Muslims that Muslims will play against you while the Muslims are smirking knowing their tactics are working.
It’s a game they love to play to intimidate and gain control. The black card was a trial run for the Islamaphobia card. Now both cards are back in the form of a hate crime hoax epidemic. I have yet to read upon a case that was actually legit and the person accused always lost something or it destroyed their lives. The mainstream news never follows up on these cases to report that they were fake claims leaving the public thinking those cases were legit claims.
Solution: Make hate crime hoaxes a crime with a prison sentence. If Muslims claim Islamaphobia for this action, they will expose themselves as propagandists and bullies of our society. It will open more eyes to their manipulative ways. I do expect Muslim to try to be clever when using the Islamaphobia card on this one. They will twist the words in their favor to make the new law sound like its attacking minorities. Never give in to their false victimhood Islamaphobia card. The more you let them get away with it the more you submit to their totalitarian ideology. Their totalitarian ideology is about submission. Your submission literally makes you a slave of Islam. You might as well convert to Islam.
I would love for this exposure to happen.
Rufolino says
To make hate-crime-hoaxes liable for prison sentences, would be blatantly Islamophobic !
No-win here.
John says
We must never lose the right to be sceptical and question religions in the uk.
It’s a belief, a choice and nothing to do with race, which of course is not a choice.
Some parts of the UK institutions have a concerted campaign to conflate race and islam, this must never be allowed to happen.
Giacomo Latta says
When will the BBC say to this last bit of muslim criticism, ”and exactly which race does Islam belong to?”
Ren says
People should encourage and applaud islamophobia.
John Allan says
To the best of my knowledge, the UK is NOT Muslim – yet. So, if they seek Islamic perfection, they had best go to an Islamic state. If they prefer freedom of speech, freedom of information, freedom of dress, et al, they had best stick with the west – and shut the f__k up about Islamophobia, whether real or imaginary.
