[Hyde Park] Speakers’ Corner Adopts a De Facto Sharia Blasphemy Code [London]
Archbishop Cranmer ^ | 8/2/21 | Archbishop Cranmer

But if a sharia blasphemy code creeps into Speakers’ Corner, in can be enforced just about anywhere – by the implicit (and sometimes quite explicit) threat of violence.

After all, there is a still an RE teacher missing from Batley Grammar School, in hiding somewhere with his family, in fear for his life, simply because he showed a picture of Mohammed in an educational context, and all Jahannam broke loose.

But he’s yesterday’s news.

Hatun Tash is a thoughtful, intelligent, passionate Christian preacher. As an ex-Muslim, she has a lot to say about Islam and Jesus, or the prophet Isa, as she previously knew the Christ, the Messiah, the Son of God. And as she was preaching in Speakers’ Corner a week ago, she was stabbed.

Some were quick – perhaps too quick – to blame Islamists for the attack (which was, let’s be honest, attempted murder), but as the BBC point out, she was in Speakers’ Corner wearing a Charlie Hebdo T-shirt. In fact, that’s all the BBC tells us, so we are left infer that Hatun Tash was stabbed by someone who objected to a satirical magazine which once caricatured Mohammed on its front cover: there was no mention of Hatun Tash’s faith, no mention of her being a convert from Islam, no mention of her preaching, and......

I have a picture of a black communist preaching at "Speaker's Corner" in 1961. It was suggested (here) the speaker was Obama's father.

The English politicians allowed the mohammedans to root in the country.

The English PEOPLE should drive them into the channel.

The Epicenter of Islamic Extremism in England is about a stones throw from Speakers Corner. AND - the UK never had Free Speech anyway. Never.

From 1554 to 1829 it was illegal to even be Catholic in the UK.

The world’s oldest 3rd world country is full of some big time control freaks. Now, they are just woke control freaks.
