Orwellian.

And don’t forget, this is white liberals doing this.

Muslims aren’t making them do this.

“the problem is ‘grossly offensive’ is not something you should normally be prosecuted for."

Not in a sane society. But alas, Britain has long since abandoned anything resembling sanity.

I pity poor Winston. They didn’t listen to him when he spoke of Adolph Hitler and “reaped what they sowed.”
And repeating history, they ignore Winston’s early description of Islam.
Will history repeat? Very possibly.

section 127 of the Communications Act 2003, which makes it illegal to intentionally “cause annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety to another”,

Everybody on the internet is hereby under arrest.

Well, that’s reassuring. Apparently the British cops are out of other crimes to solve. Did they ever manage to run down that Virginia feller who tweeted “If this be treason, make the most of it”?

This is why they don’t want anonymity on the internet. They can’t punish you if they don’t know who you are.

This article is causing “annoyance, inconvenience, and needless anxiety” in me so please arrest HomO Secretary Amber Rudd.

One of the reasons the libs cried so hard when broom hilda lost. They want to be able to lock up people here for thinking incorrect thoughts.

I doubt that they’d allow a website such as “freerealm.co.uk” to be registered too. It’d have to be overseas.
