...Rowan and Ross addressed recent events in the United Kingdom and in particular the fate of, er, someone whose name they weren't permitted to mention but who, um, had been gaoled for, er, something or other... This was somewhat astonishing to me, as I'd assumed empire-wide D-notices had lapsed with the passage of the Statute of Westminster. But mein hosts circled back, cautiously, to the topic toward the end of my interview - and I observed, as I have before, how in almost the entirety of the western world, whenever anyone draws attention to some of the more problematic aspects of Islam, the state cracks down not on the problematic aspects, but on the guy who draws attention thereto. In Britain and Europe, we are an incident or two away from literally "shooting the messenger".
Rowan, Ross and I all knew we were referring to a gentleman by the name of Tommy Robinson. I expect many of you know that, too. But I doubt most Australian viewers had much of a clue about it, and I'm pretty certain the overwhelming majority of his fellow Englishmen are unaware of his fate. As readers may recall, I have met Mr Robinson just once, at an event at the European Parliament in Brussels. He is an engaging, charismatic fellow, albeit a bit rough-hewn for the refined sensibilities of the metropolitan media ....
On Friday, Robinson was livestreaming (from his telephone) outside Leeds Crown Court where last week's Grooming Gang of the Week were on trial for "grooming" - the useless euphemism for industrial-scale child gang rape and sex slavery by large numbers of Muslim men with the active connivance (as I pointed out to the Sky guys) of every organ of the state: social workers, police, politicians. Oh, and also the media.

Coming soon to a locality near you, if certain people have their way.
It ain’t just Britain.
The US did the virtually same thing to Sam Bacile for making the anti-Islamist film that allegedly sparked the Clinton-Benghazi scandal. Both Robinson and Bacile were on probation for criminal offenses at the time of their anti-Islamist activities that provoked official ire.
However, Bacile had a much more checkered past than Robinson. Robinson’s earlier conviction, “mortgage fraud”, was probably trumped up where Bacile’s earlier criminal activities were more serious and proven.

I think Europe is lost. Only another Crusade can turn the tide now.
It was the Catholic Church that raised the Armies, paid the troops and supplied the means of sustenance. I really don’t believe they have the leadership for that now, since the Socialists have taken over.
IN BRITAIN IT IS ALWAYS 1984.
Rogue nation is right. Last year after the Manchester bombing, Prime Minister Theresa May gave one of her insipid political speeches calling the terrorists cowards. Then it was revealed that there were 2,000 possible terrorists under surveillance who were allowed to roam around and even travel to other countries. Couldn’t we say that Britain is a nation that harbors terrorists?
The media loses its power every time a person catches them lying. Once the trust is brocken they can never get it back again.
You can’t have a “free press” if it is bought and paid for by the powerful.
GB is now an Orwellian Dystopia.
The royalty should just hand over the keys to the mullahs.
It’s OVER.
They are toasted scones.
On the ash heap of history.
Well put!
