Lee Anderson: MP suspended from Tory party over comments about London mayor
BBC ^ | 24 Feb | BBC

Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson has been suspended from the party after "refusing to apologise" for comments aimed at Sadiq Khan.

The Conservative Ashfield MP told GB News on Friday "Islamists" had "got control" of the mayor of London.

Responding on Saturday, Mr Khan described the remarks as "pouring fuel on the fire of anti-Muslim hatred".

Losing the Conservative whip essentially expels Mr Anderson from his party in Parliament.

Just over an hour after Mr Khan's criticism, a spokesperson for the Tory party's chief whip Simon Hart said: "Following his refusal to apologise for comments made yesterday, the chief whip has suspended the Conservative whip from Lee Anderson MP."

Speaking on GB News Mr Anderson said: "I don't actually believe that the Islamists have got control of our country, but what I do believe is they've got control of Khan and they've got control of London… He's actually given our capital city away to his mates."

Britain is lost. Old, tired, and worn out. No fight left in any of them anymore. None of them have a clue what’s coming.

The Islamists riot outside the halls of Parliament and the Tories don’t want to say anything bad about them.

Winston Churchill was not afraid of saying some choice words about Adolph.

Britian lost its manhood in Flanders; France at Dien Bien Phu and Germany at Stalingrad. It's harder to pin down a single event for America. Perhaps Bay of Pigs. The country never recovered from that defeat.

Hiroshima.

Too many decided that there was a technological solution. And they turned the country over to nerd-fags who only want technological soutions, and don’t want a tough military.
