Current Affairs Liz Truss

Sadly this appears to be a thing about which there is a degree of coordination, as summarized by Peter Oborne here:

UK politicians are whipping up an anti-Muslim panic. Where’s the evidence?

Remarks by House of Commons speaker and Labour leader Keir Starmer have led to an explosion of Islamophobic hatred against Muslims protesting against Israel's war on Gaza

As if on cue:

https://www.theguardian.com/politic...aims-islamists-have-got-control-of-sadiq-khan

"The Conservative MP Lee Anderson has claimed that “Islamists” have “got control of London” and its mayor, Sadiq Khan. Speaking on GB News, Anderson said of Khan, the first Muslim mayor of London: “He’s given our capital city away to his mates."

Of course Anderson is at this point far more concerned with whipping up hate via the lucrative media career that his brief MP stint has unlocked for him so isn't going to be too fussed about minor quibbles like truth.

The last throw of the die of a condemned man? I wonder who in the tory party will call this newest of new lows out.

Who are the Rochdale byelection candidates – and what do they stand for?

With Labour withdrawing support for its candidate, the vote has been blown wide open

Spoiler, there isn't one. Unless she is suggesting Labour's Azhar Ali is a radical Islamist?

The only person there you could even come close to suggesting is an extremist is Galloway lol

She's still an MP for South West Norfolk btw according to the Parliament official site:

Surely these types of lies about our democratic system, cavorting with people like Bannon and cheerleading convicted fraudster Tommy Robinson is a massive case of undermining UK parliament. Should absolutely not set foot in Parliament again and not just for her appalling stint as PM.

It is just overt racism, she shouldn't be allowed in front of a camera in the UK without being held accountable to those remarks, she is an utter skid mark on the nation

he also said politicians should be able to interfere with police operational decisions as well, according to that report

Looks like you are correct, sadly.

These turds are going to get someone killed before the election if this is the way they're going to play it.

It is absolute arson. Fukn dirtbirds.

Imagine the uproar if anyone said something as ridiculous as that about Judaism

As with others, just because we don't moderate the CA Forum doesn't mean you can flaunt the general rules on bad language.

Apologies. I've used that shortening for years and can't remember ever being called out for it. I thought it was alright as the swear filter doesn't block it.

Will desist in future.

Absolutely horror of a human being that one.
Love to give him a smack.

Good to see calls from both sides of the house for her and Frank Doberman to lose the Tory whip over their comments yesterday.

Absolutely appalling stuff, lower than the sewer.

30p has been stripped of the whip, though that was probably more because he said they (politicians) should take over the police than it was his comments about "Islamists".

Shambles that she gets her own SS guard. Apt but yet more tax payer monies down the drain on the vacuous twit*.
