“Big Ben has fallen,” tweeted Giulio Meotti, the Italian critic of Islam. Mr. Brexit, Nigel Farage, wrote: “This is the beginning of religious, sectarian politics in our country. It will get very ugly….By the 2029 general election we will have a radical Islamic party represented in Westminster.” And actor-turned-activist Laurence Fox commented: “Expect what happened today…to become a much more regular occurrence as Britain is bullied into submission.”
Exactly what did happen? On February 21, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, made a ruling in violation of a recondite House rule that most British subjects had to have explained to them. The next day, the Daily Mail did just that. February 21 was, as it happens, an “Opposition Day” in the Commons, meaning that it was devoted to the discussion of issues raised by an opposition party, in this case the Scottish National Party – which, in an apparent attempt to highlight Labour Party divisions over the war in Gaza, offered a strongly pro-Palestinian motion calling for an “immediate ceasefire” and the release of hostages while also accusing Israel of targeting innocent Palestinians.
In response, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer proposed an amendment that was less critical of Israel, while the Tory government presented its own amendment, which, in line with its current policy, defended Israel’s right to self–defense and called simply for a “humanitarian pause” in the fighting in Gaza. According to House rules regarding Opposition Day activities, only the latter amendment should have been entertained; but after some Labour MPs who didn’t like the SNP’s intensely anti-Israeli motion shared with Hoyle their fears that a vote against it would expose them to violence by Muslims – most of whom, until October 7, were a highly reliable voting bloc for Labour – Hoyle ordered that...

The only hope the UK has is an all out civil war in which conservatives win totally and decisively and conclusively.
Voting won’t get them the cure they need and neither will democracy and parliamentarianism.
They need a George Washington in reverse. Fortunately, the US has one. This time his name is Donald.
This might be better than the alternative, which is having the islamists infiltrate and exert influence/pressure/control of one of the major parties from within.
The Muslims and Hindus will be fighting each other for power.
I hope they do not fal into the abys.
There’s No England Now.
(To think that song is almost 40 years old)
.
Europe is learning the hard way. Muslims don’t “migrate” to assimilate but invade to conquer and make the countries that falls to them part of a worldwide Caliphate under Sharia Law. Their religion demands that.
It’s almost as though they had to have the Crusades because of them.
Oh wait...maybe that was a clue.
The next British Civil War will be between Muslims and Indians.
You beat me too it.
There died a myriad - for this.
the hindus give them a fight
they did in india
And the US Navy fought against them in 1815: The bravery of the U.S. Marine Corps in these wars led to the line “to the shores of Tripoli” in the Marine Hymn, and they would forever be known as “leathernecks” for the leather collars of their uniforms, designed to prevent their heads from being cut off by the Muslim scimitars when boarding enemy ships.
