British Media Melts Down over J.D. Vance’s ‘UK Becoming Islamist Country’ Comments
Breitbart ^ | 16 Jul 2024 | OLIVER JJ LANE

Posted on 07/16/2024 5:42:57 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

Uncomfortable truth or outrageous lie? Either way, the British media squirmed over Trump VP pick J.D. Vance’s humorous reflection on Britain, a nuclear power, having such rapidly changing demographics.

Nearly every major British media outlet carried their concerns over Ohio Senator James David (‘J.D.’) Vance’s comments at the National Conservatism Conference in Washington D.C. last week after he was selected by former President Donald Trump to be his running mate on Monday.

In a 20-minute speech at the conference talking about foreign policy, defence, and America’s place in the world, Vance touched on immigration several times and made a joke about Britain’s open borders problem which he suggested would be exacerbated by the new Labour government.

He said, in comments accompanied by laughter and applause:

…by the way I have to beat up on the UK on one additional thing… one of the big dangers in the world of course is nuclear proliferation… what is the first truly Islamist country that will get a nuclear weapons? Maybe it’s Iran, maybe Pakistan already kinda counts, and then we finally decided maybe it’s the UK since Labour just took over. But to my Tory friends I’ve got to say, you guy have got to get a handle on this.

Exactly. The UK has changed so much due to massive immigration and weak kneed politicians it will be a miracle if she recovers. The recent election will accelerate the slide.

It’s nice when a man stands up and calls a spade a garden tool and everyone hates him for it.

“The UK’s new left-wing Labour government made a statement on Vance through its Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner, who said she didn’t “recognise that characterisation” of the UK.”

She needs to visit London, and then she’ll understand what he means.

The truth always precipitates hysteria from the left. It’s the best indicator of when a report is on target.

It’s too late for England, and for many other once Western countries as well. Demographics are destiny.

The science is settled, demographics models prove it’s true.

Nope, he’s right of course. Everyone else is lying. The world is badly infested with scoundrels of every configuration.

It’s like the world is the bar scene in Star Wars.

All over Europe as we all know.

New from Radio Genoa...poor 78 year old Irish grandpa sprayed with mace by police for peacefully protesting about the influx. Poor man trying to stick up for his descendants and treated like he’s the problem.

I wonder how much impact there was from all the soldiers lost in WW1 and WW2 and the subsequent repopulating without those genes in the mix? Enough to have made even subtle shifts in what is an average English citizen than from before those wars?

By Islamic do you mean Muslim?

Or Islamist.

Vance used the “ism” term (Islamist/Islamism).

Islamism exists to poison and destroy western society. What a brutal scourge.

Given the comments Labour’s clown of a foreign secretary has made about Trump, they can just STFU.
