The new Islamophobia definition proposed by an all-party British parliamentary group could undermine police efforts in countering Islamic terrorism, the UK police warned.

The definition conflates hate-speech and legitimate criticism of Islam, according to the police body. “As it stands, this definition risks shutting down debate about any interpretation of the tenets of Islam which are at odds with our laws and customs, which in turn would place our police officers and members of the judicial system in an untenable position,” NPCC chief Martin Hewitt wrote in a letter addressed to Prime Minister Theresa May.

I am afraid the UK and also Europe are lost.

Isn't that what it's for?
So in Britain it will be “If you see something...don’t say a thing!”
France is surprisingly united against their Obama. This is amazing because in overemotional America , you would never see a unity against Obama that way. Of course, they all are at the end of their ropes.
Until the first stick of dynamite in the European Union satchel charge goes off.
After which they all will.
Fascist Britain is an Islamic country. Don’t expect the truth to win out.
I think Tommy Robinson is on course to wing the EU election in the North West of England, we’ll see where we go from there. The media lies are losing their impact on the working class in England now (Scotland is still utterly blue pilled br progressivism).
