Theresa May condemns Donald Trump for retweeting anti-Muslim hate videos from the British far-right

LONDON — Theresa May has condemned U.S. President Donald Trump for retweeting Islamophobic videos about Muslims posted by a leader of the British far-right.

A spokesman for the prime minister said that it was "wrong" for Trump to have broadcast the footage to his 46 million Twitter followers this morning.

May's spokesman told a press briefing attended by Business Insider: "Britain first seeks to divide communities through their use of hateful narratives which peddle lies and stoke tensions. They cause anxiety to law abiding people.

"British people overwhelmingly reject the prejudice of the far-right, which it is the antithesis of the values that this country represents: decency tolerance and respect. It is wrong for the President to have done this."

So, now the content doesn’t matter, just the source.

It’s a nearly universal sentiment.

And it was applied to the DNC’s emails and several other pearls of information.

Traitorous? Try suicidal as the voice of the people agrees with it.

May is controlled by the Deep State. Don’t care how or what she “thinks” since she is a puppet.

All of Great Britain is up in arms over Trump’s retweet of Ann Coulter’s tweet. Apparently, all the videos shown are true. Theresa May’s a total idiot.

If all of Britain is indeed "up in arms" over Trump's retweet, then Theresa May is merely reflecting the concerns of her fellow Britons. She may be an idiot, but she appears to be the idiot the British want and deserve.

ABC “News” is blasting Trump over this “outrage” right now. ABC is citing CAIR.

Just this morning I was rereading “Animal Farm” and a commentary by Orwell noted that when the book was published in 1943, it was generally considered by the intelligentsia of Britain that one never criticized the Communists in Russia. He noted it wasn’t government censorship but rather social censorship that enforced the orthodox view that Russia was an ally and its practices and policies were unassailable. He noted that even persons who were lifelong opponents of the death penalty approved of Stalin’s murderous purges in the late 30s. As the French saying goes, the more things change, the more things stay the same.

Because who gives two Sh!ts about The Dutch citizens who was attacked?

Them, Kate Steinle, all the women sexually assaulted on New Year's Eve in 2015.

All just eggs that need to broken for the omelet of globalism.

Pretty much.

Now, we’d be unfair if we didn’t give due note that Islamic observance carries on at multiple levels.

Some are relatively passive, and can live for years, decades alongside Westerners minding their own private Islamic business and it never goes further.

But again there are the aggressive, who are fundamentalist about it and who actively cherish a world conquest view.

And when the aggressive get moving in the view of the passive, the passive tend to start coming along too.

Evangelism to the passive might be the only practical answer — to head them off from becoming resources for more active mischief. But this is going to take a gutsier Christianity than we commonly see today.

Well, was it accurate? Would it have been okay if it has originated from the far-left, such as the BBC?

Yes, exposes to the British people, and reveals what otherwise is kept under wraps. Most people have no idea what they are doing to the Jews in France.

Meanwhile, the videos are being seen by thousands more viewers than would ever see them. (Hat tip to Scott Adams)

This is what happens when you change your demographics. Politicians can no longer honestly discuss Islam. And that is the problem. Britain should not be an Islamic country.

Trump is outing all the globalist toadies and oligarchs.

Best president in my lifetime!

And I was an adult during the Reagan years.

It is shocking to me that this woman is allowed to continue on in power.

She couldn’t have sold out her nation more, if she tried, and I’m not convinced she didn’t.

Sounds like someone has too much time on her hands and needs to get Trump a sandwich.
