How far gone is shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain? This far gone. How clueless and incompetent are its public officials? This clueless and incompetent. They assumed the charity was “moderate.” They had no reason for thinking so. They just knew it would be “Islamophobic” to think otherwise or raise any questions.
“‘Muhammad cartoon row’ teacher’s own union gave £3,000 to Islamic charity that named him online and ‘endangered’ his life,” by Bhvishya Patel, MailOnline, March 31, 2021 (thanks to Henry):
The union representing the teacher who allegedly showed a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad had donated money to the charity that went on to oust him.
The National Education Union’s (NEU) Kirklees branch, in West Yorkshire, which represents the Batley Grammar School teacher, had donated £3,000 to the charity Purpose of Life who went on to publish the teacher’s name online.
The Islamic charity, which has now removed the teacher’s name from its online post, has since been accused of ‘endangering his safety’ and acting in a ‘reckless’ manner and have been reported to the Charity Commission.
After receiving a donation from the teaching union, Purpose of Life, which provides aid to the homeless in West Yorkshire as well as those in the Rohingya refugee crisis, shared a video on YouTube thanking the teaching union for their ‘kind donation’.
However the organisation later put the teacher’s name in the public domain after pupils were shown a cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad – which was reportedly taken from the French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo – during a religious studies lesson….
Last week Mohammed Hussain of the Purpose of Life group admitted sharing the teacher’s name on social media with a letter condemning him.
He said: ‘His name was already widely available in Internet posts and it was going around. I didn’t make public his name first.
‘It was not our intention to cause any danger to him. In fact we asked for only peaceful protest. We don’t want people breaking the law. But we do feel that if this had been something that offended the LGBT community or something that was anti-Semitic, he would’ve been sacked on the spot.
‘His resignation should be forthcoming immediately. He has insulted two billion Muslims on the planet. We cannot stand for that. We have to make our voices heard on it.’
It came as the Free Speech Union said they were concerned that the actions of the local charity had exposed the teacher to ‘serious disrepute and physical harm’, in a letter to the Charity Commission.
In their letter they said: ‘It should have been clear to the trustee who signed the letter – and indeed to any reasonable person – that merely naming the teacher could endanger his personal safety.
‘Naming him as a sadistic abuser of Islam, in the wake of the murder of Samuel Paty in Paris, was unforgivably reckless.’…

Simply put, the British have yet to understand that freedom of speech and Islam DO NOT MIX. They are thinking that they can REASON with Muslims and then WIN THEM OVER.
The reason that will not occur is because … Islam is a BRONZE-AGE DEATH CULT that will never be compatible with modernity. Never ever.
Until the British understand that Islam has a BRONZE-AGE MENTALITY, they will not accept that Islam will not ‘MAKE A DEAL’ for free speech. Islam is like a cultural TSUNAMI … it is uncompromising.
Savvyone says
Right on, Mortimer! If you don’t believe it, just ask Wafa Sultan, Noni Darwish, Mark Gabriel, Ali Sina and scores of others.

Interesting how these people who are quoted eat good food, can drink alcohol, can rape little girls, can abuse people who give them places to live and allow them complete freedom – all live in the west.

UK: Union representing teacher who showed Muhammad cartoon gave $4,000 to Islamic charity that doxxed him
……………..
This *poor man*.
I’m surprised the Daily Mail ever covered this. Kudos to journalist Bhvishya Patel–especially since he normally writes light-hearted “human interest” stories.
Although he did also cover this grim story:
“Failed asylum seeker accused of having sex with woman, 32, killing her and chopping her up ‘gave false name when police came to arrest him in flat above kebab shop'”

Infidel says
Yeah, great idea, belonging to a union!

Mostly you don’t have a choice. The two occasions I joined a union it was a requirement for the job.
Peter Wakerley says
Thankfully there are a few non political unions now. Workers of England claim to be totally non political and impartial. I joined them after realising just how left wing Unison are
gravenimage says
Glad to hear that, Peter. Here in the States unions are largely far leftist.
Stan Parker says
I took a job, once, back in the sixties. Was at my desk when a union rep came in and asked me to sign a form. I asked what the form was for and he replied, for “Union Membership”. I said that I have no wish to be a member of a communist ideal and he told me that my job was offered as a condition of membership. I went to the MD and explained what had just happened and he apologised for not informing me. I promptly resigned and left the building having been there for less than 3 hours! Have never joined a Union and have never ever joined any demo!
Infidel says
Stan, good for you! It’s harder to be true to one’s principles these days, in this era of cancel culture and far fewer alternative opportunities, since people do need to pay the bills
Infidel says
Now the Dems wanna outlaw ‘Right to Work’ states, and make union membership compulsory. Never mind that union bosses have been doing the exact opposite of what’s in the interests of their members, like recently when they got a shock from Biden’s EO on Keystone

Andrew Blackadder says
Every time I read something from some muslim guy stating just how many muslims there are in the World, it seems be larger and larger, and now this wee fella says 2 Billion, last I read it 1.6 Billion… these savages are even giving rabbits a run for their money.
OLD GUY says
Islamophobia the Islamic answer for anyone or anything that is thought, written or said that they disagree with. That’s called “MIND CONTROL” and is a way DICTATORSHIPS maintain and control the people they rule over. YEA I know that can’t happen here, BULLSHIT, it already is happening in good old America. Our schools are being infiltrated by the money from Saudi Arabia and other muslim countries that pull little strings to effect the teaching and culture on our school campuses. You can see it in our media and government agencies where they are afraid to call muslim/islamic attacks on our fellow citizens as anything but Islamic terror attacks. On top of which our Federal government under Biden’s direction has opened the borders to muslim travel and migration from dangerous muslim countries.
Being afraid to speak out about a group of people, organization or country that is threatening the safety of your country or citizens is NOT a phobia, it is sticking your head in the sand and hoping nothing bad will happen. NO SMART.

[abuser of Islam]
Let’s see if that works for a different ideology / way of life, e.g:
“abuser of capitalism”
“abuser of communism”
“abuser of fascism”
“abuser of atheism”
“abuser of vegetarianism”
Hardly “sadism”! lol
john smith says
The charity Knew exactly what they were doing when they published the teachers name online, Then to be rewarded with £3000 for this by the teachers own union. We certainly are living in an up side down world.

Doxxing–listing name and address–of someone getting death threats is particularly evil.

I support doxxing doxers: that’s the only thing that’s likely to end this practice
