British MPs face booze ban as Parliament moves to building governed by Sharia
Jihad Watch ^ | 08/08/2016 | Christine Williams

British MPs are facing a six-year drinking ban after a committee decided that they will move to an office block that is operating under Islamic law while the Palace of Westminster is being refurbished. The committee’s recommendations were leaked.

Back in 2014, it was announced that Britain was launching the first Islamic bond scheme in the non-Muslim world. Three government buildings in Whitehall were transferred to Islamic bonds, switching the ownership from British taxpayers to Middle Eastern businessmen and banks, and thus rendering the premises fully compliant with Sharia law, which includes the banning of alcohol.

It almost seems too farfetched to imagine Islamic law governing British MP’s, which would make them officially dhimmis in obedience to the Sharia. But it is happening.

Richmond House is one of three Whitehall buildings that were transferred to the £200million Islamic bond scheme, which switched their ownership from British taxpayers to wealthy Middle Eastern businessmen and banks.

George Osborne announced the move in June 2014 as part of an effort to make the UK a global hub for Islamic finance.

But critics say the scheme would waste money and could undermine Britain’s financial and legal systems by imposing Sharia law onto government premises.

The bonds – known as Sukuk – are only available for purchase by Islamic investors.

I’m sure pork products, service dogs and piggy banks are also banned by the tolerant peace loving Muslims.

[...Palace of Westminster is being refurbished.]

The first thing they will probable do is change the name to Eastminster.

Next they will all have their own Prayer Rugs and in a few years they will ask us or drag us in to save them again.

Unless Hillary is elected here ... If that happens we will have our own problems to deal with and those problems may be worse than Great Briton’s problems.
We might be able to stem the Radical Invasion here because we are forewarned.

Texas has a very big porous Border and then the Gulf of Mexico so we are and will continue to be a target for Obama and Hillary’s “friends”.

God Bless Texas, I moved here on purpose about 20 years ago, I was accepted here and am glad for it. Just in case I was right.
I still hope that I am not right. Bill Clinton made me leave Louisiana. Louisiana was a very Liberal State back then and I lived in New Orleans (more Liberal yet, glad there wasn’t a litmus test to move to Texas at the time).

I Love Texas, I call it Home, I will protect my Home, I will defend / protect Texas.

Yeah.

Politicos, these days, really have no clue on cause and effect.

I’m fair sure every one of them that has acted in support or acquiescence to the Sharia courts in their own land has abso-freekin-lootly no clue what it means.
