Serving police officers today backed Donald Trump's claim that some Muslim communities in the UK are no-go areas because of extremism.
Several Met officers have said the 'Islamification' of some parts of the capital requires 'extra vigilance' and they can't wear uniforms for safety reasons - despite Scotland Yard claiming the tycoon 'couldn't be more wrong'.
Home Secretary Theresa May tonight rejected Mr Trump's claims, insisting: 'The police in London are not afraid to go out and police the streets.'
The US presidential contender caused worldwide consternation yesterday after a string of incendiary remarks about Muslims, including in Britain, and said: 'We have places in London and other places that are so radicalised that police are afraid for their own lives.'
But one serving officer said today Trump had 'pointed out something plainly obvious, something which I think we aren't as a nation willing to own up to'.
Another policeman said that he and other colleagues fear being terror targets and spoke of the 'dire warning' from bosses not to wear a uniform 'even in my own car'.

Trump for Truth!
We are in the very early stages of this crap here in Pittsburgh. Our police chief just struck an “alliance” with the Islamic community here and released a statement that our city officials will not tolerate anti-Muslim, islamophobic hate speech. He’s also putting our police thru special training so that they will be more culturally aware when interacting with our Muslim community. Sounds like our local officials want different strokes for different folks. In other words, Sharia law will apply and these muzzies will be held to a different standard.
“the Truth Burns, but burns clean!” Sam Houston, a controversal, but great American.
I see.
Since people come to this country for a reason, job, home, education, whatever, they come KNOWING what this wonderful country MIGHT be. Nothing REALLY prepares one for living in a foreign country. I lived in Mexico City for two years. I spoke fluent Spanish. I came home after two years because I wasn't REALLY prepared for the poverty, pollution and corrupt police and politicians.
I worked there, met my relatives (cousins) and had a good time but...I learned one HUGE lesson: I am an American. Always was; always will be. It was a good lession.
I once read a statistic that for every THREE immigrants who come here ONE goes back home. Understandable.
We lived in Saudi Arabia for five years. We had a one-week orientation (in Houston) about the "do's and don'ts" of living over there. The Saudi embassy USED to be in Houston, with an office in D.C. THAT was how important the petroleum business was.
We stuck to the rules while living in the KSA. There were some STUPIDS (Americans and Canadians) who didn't. They KNEW the consequences. NO ONE ever forced us to stay there. We were ALWAYS free to leave and go home. We were ALL over there for one reason and one reason only: MONEY.
They pay engineers a PILE of money. No other reason to go/stay there. It works.
American oilmen have been over there since 1926, so it's no surprise to us...given that BRAINS are on the working mode.
Islam was NEVER a problem for us in the KSA because we obeyed THEIR rules. By the way, I started attending DAILY MASS (I'm Catholic) over there THANKS go my Saudi boss who told me that I could ALWAYS go to pray anytime I wanted to because God was "number one" and "there was always time for God."
Nothing wrong with pockets of Sharia. MOST foreign children who come here to the USA eventually stop everything "foreign" and want DESPERATELY to be American. Who can blame them?
The PAIN in everyone's butt over there was Sadaam Hussein. But, I discovered that the Arabs (add Persians to that too) had been fighting against each other ever since there were middle easterners.
The only people who were MORE of a pain in the butt were the Indians and Pakistanis. "Pak" means "pure" and "stan" means land: the land of the pure...right.
Besides, media all over the world LIE, LIE, LIE and tell us ONLY what they want us to know.
Sorry for being verbose.
I’m sorry but I take issue with your post where you state “nothing wrong with pockets of Sharia”
In this country, we have a set of laws. I’m not naive enough to think that all politicians and officials follow the rule of law, but the point is we are all US citizens subject to US law. Sharia makes a subset of the population exempt from that. And sharia law is diametrically opposed to our western way of life.
We cannot have different rules for different groups.
Trump is a CRUSADER for the truth !
I worked security at night in the black ghetto of NE Portland. On any given night you might encounter a dead body on the sidewalk or middle of the street. Hapoened twice while I was there in the late 90s. Had some harrowing experiences learning about race differences during that time.
The muslims refuse to assimilate.
Theodore Roosevelt on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN
“In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man’s becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
The area around the Tower of London is.
There may be others, that I am unaware of.
YIKES !
That looks like totalitarian revolutionaries hiding behind the framework of republican government.
The existence of “Sharia patrols” on London streets is well-documented in videos. White native Londoners are accosted, harassed, and attacked by roving gangs of militant Mohammeds in their strongholds if said kuffar drink alcohol or dress immodestly etc in such areas.
Anyone who is alert and diligent about these topics on the web knows about areas of Paris, London, and even Swedish cities where Muslims completely push out the native police and attack them relentlessly on occasion.
You are correct !
Also, British authorities have allowed Muslims to set up and operate separate Sharia courts and systems of administration of Sharia government for themselves in Muslim areas.
If people in this country follow Sharia and STAY within their respective state laws and abide by national laws (IRS) then there's no problem with "pockets of Sharia."
Sharia and Christian Americans have co-existed in Saudi Arabia (KSA) since the late 1920's.
Not too many places on this planet follow Sharia to the letter. It's not even followed that rigidly in the KSA. I would know that since we lived over there for five years.
Sharia doesn't allow for Christians in the land of Mecca, but we had "special teachers" there for us Christians. The Saudi government just "renamed" the priests, vicars and ministers. I attended daily Mass in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia, for five years. The priests were of the Franciscan order as I recall.
The Saudis send their brightest and best (both genders) to the USA to be educated. One day the petroleum and natural gas will be gone and they are preparing for that now by educating their youth.
Sharia is a code to live by but the Saudis, being practical, deal with it so as to continue the flow of petroleum and natural gas.
The spice must flow! Ooops, sorry, got caught up in a movie.
Amen to that.
You mean the poster who said that there were no problems like that in your state was in error?
Oops.
My dad told me I wouldn’t survive a stroll through his old neighborhood in Chicago.
