Conservative Councillor Ken Williamson, who represents the Buckhurst Hill West ward, says he is "deeply disappointed" by the outcome of today's hearing.

He adds that the wellbeing of local Epping residents was the priority for the council.

Williamson says he understands the government faces a dilemma, but it should not be at the expense of local communities.

The reality is that Great Brit is at the end stage of demographic replacement.

The Brits have imported so many corrupt, unassimialted and mostly Muslim cultural imperialist “Asians” (ie Pakistani and other Arabs), Africans and random Third Worlders that they have become political minorities in their own countries.

This is a cautionary tale for the US to deport our version of the EU foreign invasion before the invaders can establish the same foothold on power here in the United States. .

“Given how porous the UK borders are, smuggling in weapons shouldn’t be a challenge.”

Anyone who thinks the Mussies haven’t been doing that for years is living in a fool’s paradise.
The authorities never revealed what they found when they raided the Finsbury Park mosque.

Indeed. I think the oblivious Brits are in for a very, very rude awakening within the next 10 years the way things are going. They're literally going to wake up one morning and find themselves fighting for their lives.
