How London was taken over by Muslims and transformed into a powerhouse of Islamism.
In the annals of civilizational decline, few spectacles rival that of a once-mighty empire wilting under the weight of its own timidity. Britain, the cradle of parliamentary democracy, Magna Carta, and the Enlightenment’s unyielding torch, now teeters on the brink of self-inflicted oblivion. The antithesis of multicultural harmony, the year 2025 brings another pitiful surrender to the forces of Islamic extremism, a phenomenon chillingly encapsulated by Melanie Phillips in her prescient 2006 tome Londonistan.
Phillips, a Cassandra of our age, warned of London’s metamorphosis into a “terror state within”, a hub for jihadist recruitment and financing, born of a toxic brew: the collapse of British identity, the paralysis of multiculturalism, and an elite’s craven fear of the “Islamophobia” epithet. Nearly two decades later, her prophecies have ossified into reality. Under the slick populism of Mayor Sadiq Khan, London—once the beating heart of Western liberty—has devolved into a cauldron of knife assaults by immigrant gangs, appeasing police, who cower before Sharia vigilantism, and a surge in antisemitism that drives Jews to contemplate exodus. Britain’s trajectory is the inexorable outcome of ideological surrender: a movement from ordered civilization towards anarchy and Islamic barbarism. To ignore this is to abdicate responsibility for action.
Melanie Phillips’s Londonistan was a forensic dissection of Britain’s self-sabotage. Drawing on exhaustive evidence—from the fatwa against Salman Rushdie to the unchecked proliferation of Islamist mosques—she exposed how the British establishment, in thrall to relativism, allowed radical Islam to metastasize. The capital, dubbed “Londonistan” by exasperated European intelligence agencies, became a safe haven for extremists like Abu Qatada and Omar Bakri Muhammad, who preached jihad under the noses of MI5. Phillips argued that this was no accident: the erosion of Christianity and national pride created

Islam is a cancer on Western Civilization. They belong in their own countries.
Islam isn’t the problem.
The Deep State that is importing the Islamist useful idiots is the threat.
Unfortunately, where they “belong” is irrelevant. Muslims are engaged in a war to take over the world, and frankly, they’re doing a damned good job so far because no one is offering any resistance.

Sometimes those who do things to make them selves feel better usually costs them their lives
Trump. ..maybe. If not, Western Civilization is watching the slaughtered throngs of sheep being led by feckless Democrat/Communist elites.
We are now into "weak times." Who will bring the "strong men"? Islam or Redneck jurisprudence?
The UK is gone.
France, Sweden and Germany are almost there.
Europe isn’t too far behind the deadly curve.
Yes. Trump will offer resistance. Unfortunately, this article is about Britain.
.
Trump had better offer LOTS of resistance. He has troops to back it up, but of course he has to USE them. First job should be to rid our country of them. Next get them out of the Western Hemisphere. That may take longer. As far as ridding Europe of them, that might take some doing, but first we must get them out of the Western Hemisphere. A good place to start; maybe NYC.

The Islam being imported is actually Pakistani’s
Mediocre Britain is now Packiland. The Pakis are a worthless people before they are Islamic.
Lat night I tried to watch Season 25 of MidSummer Murders. Soon after opening there was a scene where the Paki woman showed a picture of her grandparents that came from some where in the UK. Later, she traced the generations three or four back in the UK. Acorn/BBC is portraying the Packi trash as being English. The most popular of Brit TV shows has been converted into a blatantly biased political propaganda venue
The UK is already too far gone for salvation.
Darwinian survival of the fittest is showing the Brits to be unfit to resist the Paki habitat invasion
Islam. Freedom. Pick one.
"As of 23 December 2025, the number of migrants arriving in Britain on small boats in 2025 has surpassed 41,000, with a record 803 people crossing the English Channel in a single day on 21 December, marking the highest daily total for December in seven years.
This brings the year-to-date total to 41,455, exceeding the 36,816 arrivals recorded for the entire year of 2024."
Here is the Prime Minister with the "Home Secretary." The Prime Minister will soon be Muslim as well.
Islam. When worshipping Satan just isn’t evil enough.
