ISLAMIST-inspired motorists continue to take the lives of innocent people by careering into crowds, mainly in Germany, and hordes of young mainly Muslim men arrive illegally on our shores. But the UK is making such overtures to the 7 per cent of its population who adhere to the purported ‘religion of peace’ that a visitor could be forgiven for thinking that we are an Islamic state.
Seemingly ignoring the fact that the major terrorist threat to the UK comes from Islam and the industrial levels of rape and sexual abuse meted out to young white girls by Muslim men, we are gaslit into believing that ‘diversity is a strength’. We are exhorted to celebrate the religions and customs of our minority communities, not only Muslims, almost to the complete exclusion of our own.
In my hometown of Hull, Iftar (the evening meal of Muslims in Ramadan) was celebrated in Hull Minster and was delightfully taken down in a rant by a couple of ‘Hulligans’ who asked, amongst other things, if there would be ‘a two-minute silence to reflect on all the Islamic-inspired terrorist atrocities that have happened’, an ‘Easter Day Hot Cross Bun Tasting at the Mosque’ or would ‘any camp gentlemen be directed straight up to the central tower without even a sandwich’.
Another example, an outrage in fact, is the cancelling of Easter celebrations by the headmistress of Norwood Primary School in Eastleigh, Hampshire. This was done in the name of ‘inclusivity’; an inclusivity which, ironically, excludes Christianity. Instead, the school will celebrate ‘refugee week’. Presumably the children will not be taught the distinction between legal and illegal refugees. They will doubtless be indoctrinated into the cult of multiculturalism and how it enriches our society except the bits about sharia law, knife crime and rape gangs.
The man who raised the cancellation of Easter celebrations on his Facebook page appears to have had his ‘thinking checked’ as he is now bending over backwards and sideways in issuing prolific apologies. He never meant for it to happen; clearly his understanding of social media was somewhat deficient.
While there is no evidence that Norwood Primary will be celebrating Ramadan or Eid (while it would not be surprising) plenty of other schools, many of them Christian, are doing so. These include Anglican schools St Mary’s Slough, St Peter’s Rochdale, St Peter’s Burnley and Emmaus (also a Catholic school) Liverpool. To be fair, none of these has cancelled Easter, but quite why any Christian schools should be celebrating events relevant to a religion which is completely incompatible with Christianity is hard to fathom.
