Muslim Groups Issue Demands to Labour Party in Exchange for Support
Breitbart ^ | May 7, 2024 | KURT ZINDULKA

In a foreboding sign of the future that likely awaits the United Kingdom, Muslim activists have issued a series of 18 demands to the Labour Party after dozens of local council seats were won by candidates who ran on the single issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

While the left-wing Labour Party was the clear victor of Thursday’s local elections in Britain, it saw many races in typical strongholds flip to independent candidates bringing their sectarian message to the Muslim community. Such was the scale of the defections, that Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer said in a statement to British Muslims: “I am determined to meet your concerns and to gain your respect and trust again in the future.”

Sensing blood in the water, a group called Muslim Vote, which claims to have 24 Islamic organisations in the UK behind it, issued a list of 18 demands to the Labour Party if it wants to count on the support of one of its key voting blocs in the upcoming general election, in which Labour hopes to return to power after being relegated to the opposition benches for 14 years.

Commenting on the shift in politics in Britain to focus on issues once considered fringe, Brexit leader Nigel Farage said on Monday evening: “When people come in large numbers, they bring their culture with them. What we are witnessing with this sectarian politics, is an attempt to take over councils and win seats in the British Parliament.”

One python can easily devour 10 rabbits. All it would take is time.

That's where we're at in the UK right now. The python is hungry and he has a big appetite.

But what about future King William? Is he bold enough to put aside that old “reign but not rule” saying, and roll the dice?

The ruling monarch is not supposed to get involved in politics.

Right. It’s the old “reign but not rule”. And under normal circumstances, that’s a good thing. I actually looked it up awhile back. The last time a British monarch used a royal reserved power was around 1700.

But my goodness. At what point does the monarch have to say something publicly to save his country? And by “something”, I don’t mean a weak suggestion. I mean something bold.

It’s an imperfect analogy, but suppose a car is heading right towards a cliff. A passenger is not supposed to interfere with the driver. But at what point should the passenger in the front seat reach over, turn off the keys, and press down on the brake?

Prince William is woke. He sees that there's nothing wrong with his country. He lives in a bubble. After all, he's living in castles!

England is turning to shariah law soon and it will be the end for a beautiful culture. Once muslims get the vote they turn to shariah law. Soon England will start its journey to a third world country. In Africa, most of the countries north of the equator, were growing to become thriving nations and now are third world cesspools.

Islam is evil. A pedophilic death cult.

They should dismantle their nuclear weapons.

The smartest thing South Africa did when they transitioned to majority rule was to get rid of their nuclear weapons.

I regret that I have but one soul to sell.
