Islamist Groups Funded By Taxpayer

[fender62]

giving to 5th columnist groups, do they not vet organisations and check after where money has gone, seems a bit odd with no follow-up, this sends a signal they are untouchable for the sake of social cohesion.

It is wicked fender and goes deep. The tax paying public is being taken for a ride and when they protest about such things called racist or small minded. Meanwhile in a parallel universe a Dover border patrol official is arrested for being himself an illegal immigrant! No doubt his modus operandi was to let as many as possible in so as to hide behind them.

I've seen news items recently saying that extreme-right terrorists are now more of a danger to the country than Islamists. That doesn't seem to be palatable to right-wing media barons. So they use their powers to attack our 'woke' left-wing law and order system.

[royfromaus]

Why are extreme-right terrorists on the rise I wonder?

[naomi24]

Atheist read it so it must be true. Sheesh!

[Atheist]

What a pair of daft answers!
roy suggests that r-w terrorists might be on the rise because it's fun and Islamists deserve it and it's supported by the r-w msm press barons.
Naomi says "Sheesh" because she disagrees with me.
Not many brain cells in action then.

[royfromaus]

Says the man who moans about ABers being rude to others.

[naomi24]

You’re easily led atheist - or
not to mention imaginative.

What I read was " the Prevent programme is 'out of kilter' with the rest of the counter-terrorism by focusing on Right-wing extremism at the expense of the Islamist threat, which accounts for the vast majority of terror attacks." D. Tel. today.

Just trying to provide a true quote!

[fender62]

not counting..but how many people in the uk have died after an islamic attack, how many right wing attacks resulted in deaths.
i think it's being skewed as not to offend muslims as they are easy to offend and shout victim hood, i won't mention the sexual abuse cases.

[jourdain2]

^^^ Drat " counter-terrorism system" sorry.

[Gromit]

If some nut-job is going to kill you for a spurious ideological reason, it doesn’t really matter if they are Faragists or Islamists, the result is still the same.
Keeping tags on the far right in this country is probably infinitely easier than tracking some dodgy Arab with an alphabet soup of a name.

The Mail/Telegraph report is extremely thin on detail. 4 cases have been identified, but no details of what they were.

The report is written by Shawcross, an ex-charity commissioner. Sounds pretty benign and independent, but his wiki page paints a different picture.

//Meanwhile in a parallel universe a Dover border patrol official is arrested for being himself an illegal immigrant!//

That is frightening.

[Redhelen72]

I wonder how he got through the security checks?

[douglas9401]

Frightening or a glaring indicator of how scared people are to challenge and investigate anyone for anything any more?

[youngmafbog]

//Faragists or Islamists//Mr Farage is far right and in the same camp as extremist Islamists.


Sometimes your thinking is so warped I hope the Secret Services have an eye on you, you are dangerous.

[youngmafbog]

And according to Atheist the right wind newspapers, presumably the Daly Mail and torygraph support extreme right wing terrorism.

Naomi's comment sums it up correct. And Atheists reply just about sums him up too.

[naomi24]

//I wonder how he got through the security checks?//

Perhaps security checks are not what they should be … all in the cause of social cohesion - or diversity - or something like that.

[Redhelen72]

Naomi, I am currently going through the checks and I can assure you that they are very thorough.

[naomi24]

That one wasn't, RH.

[Redhelen72]

No it wasn't but again I wonder why
