A British man has been jailed for “stirring up hatred” at a non-violent anti-migration protest in Leeds, during which he allegedly mocked Muslims and made “slurs” against Allah. Phil Hoban, 48, the founder of the “paedophile hunter” Predator Exposure group, has been sentenced to eight months in prison after pleading guilty to racial abuse towards pro-Palestinian counter-protesters during a non-violent anti-mass migration demonstration in Leeds on August 3rd, the BBC reports. The court heard that during the protest, Hoban was seen imitating the way Muslims pray in “order to mock their religion” and had made supposed slurs about Allah. He was also reportedly seen rubbing his lips “towards a person of colour”. Recorder of Leeds, Judge Guy Kearl KC told Hoban his conduct and that of his group “was designed to stir up hatred.” The father of three told the court that he was not racist and claimed in his police interview that he was not chanting Allah but rather making a reference to a man named “Alan”…. Alongside Hoban, James Gettings, 35, was also jailed for eight months by the Leeds Magistrates Court for “religiously aggravated harassment/alarm/distress by using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour or disorderly behaviour” during the same August 3rd protest. Like Hoban, the court was told that Gettings had mocked the manner in which Muslim people pray. Gettings reportedly told police that he was “disgusted” by his own behaviour and that as a result, he has been disowned by members of his family. He said that, “three seconds of madness” had ruined his life….

The UK 🇬🇧 is dead. And pretty soon America 🇺🇸 will be too.
islam is a totalitarian death cult founded by a child rapist.
Has anyone in the UK ever insulted Jesus or the God of the Bible? Did they go to prison?
islam is not a race.
Therefore, the gentleman did not display racism. Which, by the way, should be legal, if odious
I hope they don’t watch “Life of Brian”.
I’m sure the same will happen to anyone saying “Jesus f’in Christ”...or similar ;p
The uk is subject to the death cult and the king is ok with it.
"Farewell Brittania! Brittania did once rule the waves, but the dimwits chose to willingly turn themselves into slaves."
British politicians, celebrities, professors, and teachers all say far worse things about white people every day. Why aren’t any of them in prison for “stirring up racial hate”?
Yes, the Muslims did in the UK last week when they rioted and… no.
What did you expect?
No 1A.
Nor 2A to insure 1A.
I’m shocked how well Orwell predicted it.
Not just in the world but in the UK especially.
1984 should be required reading for all HS students.
Keir Starmer is an unrepentant marxist/trotskyist. In his youth he was a follower of man named Michalis N. Raptis / Michel Raptis, who himself was a follower of Leon Trotsky. He was a writer and editor for magazines “Socialist Alternatives” and “Socialist Lawyer” in the 1980s and into the 1990s.
He doesn’t talk much about Marxism now, but he’s clearly a radical leftist and statists, and like the same in the USA, he worked only in government and government-lobby organizations. Starmer rose through UK politics by being Director of Public Prosecutions (similar to US DOJ)
I think one could make the case that “Allahu Akbar” is a slur against the Christian God because the Muslims are putting Him down and saying “Our god is greater”.
From my perspective, people say all kinds of stuff and it doesn’t worry me. But if “slurs against Allah” deserve jail time, then it seems to me that Allahu Akbar might deserve the same.
But of course the government of the UK wouldn’t lift a finger to protect the Christian churchgoers of England.
UK government is now full Sharia
f them, and here as well
The Brits need to go after the Judges. Maybe go ask their Northern Ireland friends for some advice.
Especially London Islamist mayor
