This past week we were treated to the edifying (not!) theatre of ‘moral outrage’ across the MSM. Not one day went by without yet another article, story, opinion piece, report – and all because of one article by Boris Johnson on Monday 6th August in the Daily Telegraph. From the hyperventilating across the MSM by journalists, commentators, politicians and even the police an innocent bystander might have got the impression that BoJo had called to “Ban The Burqa”!
Not so. This is the actual headline:
“Denmark has got it wrong. Yes, the burka is oppressive and ridiculous – but that’s still no reason to ban it”.
It couldn’t have been more obvious, especially since most people just scan the headlines. But no – the real reason was this:
“If you tell me that the burka is oppressive, then I am with you. If you say that it is weird and bullying to expect women to cover their faces, then I totally agree – and I would add that I can find no scriptural authority for the practice in the Koran. I would go further and say that it is absolutely ridiculous that people should choose to go around looking like letter boxes; […]”
Do journalists, commentators, the permanently offended etc, actually read the stuff they are offended by, given that the final sentence of the article is “A total ban is not the answer.”? And btw, where are the stacks of complaints from Danes? BoJo did, after all, have quite a bit fof un describing their customs …
Instead we got acres of newsprint, we got Ms May – ‘Sharia May’ – wading in, we got Ms Cressida Dick, the Met Police Commissioner wading in, saying that the police found this was not really hate speech (how many of her police officers analysed that instead of preventing more acid and knife crime in London?). We saw urgent demands by some Tory muslim “Lords” that BoJo must apologise – apologise for what? Making a joke we’ve all have made? (He won’t, btw.)
We saw demands from the Tory Chairman that Boris be dragged to an inner-party tribunal for misconduct. Peak idiocy in the Tory Party was surely reached with the proposal that BoJo should be made to undergo ‘diversity training’ …
The political pundits opined that this was of course either a stroke of luck for May should Boris stand against her – or a fine machiavellian trick by BoJo in his allegedly forthcoming attempt to oust her. Even Jacob Rees-Mogg in his article in today’s Daily Telegraph sees it thus. Oh – and of course the opinions of various muslim women had to be published as well, to set BoJo straight …
So from what has this veritable MSM ‘sh*t-storm” deflected our attention? You may have noticed that suddenly the reports on institutionalised antisemitism in the Labour Party have gone missing. Poof. No longer of interest. Was that it?
No – our, the Nation’s attention has been masterly deflected from three reports by a Times investigation into how the Home Office – formerly led by our current PM – has actually helped rapists and abusers of women to come into this country.
The reports by Paul Morgan-Bentley are behind a paywall, but here are the titles if you’d like to check them out:
- Visas for men who force teenagers into marriage – Women and girls raped after being sent abroad, then Home Office lets illegal husbands settle in UK
- Forced marriage: Women with disabilities raped by visa cheats
- Forced marriage: Police ‘turn a blind eye’ to child brides
We read for example that the HoC Select Committee was aware of this practice in 2008 already. Yes, that’s indeed ten years ago – and still nothing has happened. This year, (2018 !), a small campaign has caught the eyes of some, namely that school girls, sent to the subcontinent for ‘holidays’, a.k.a. to ‘get married’, are advised to stick a spoon in the knickers so the security officers at check-in will take them out and they can – hopefully – complain.
To appreciate that this is no joke, just read this:
“British teenagers are being forced to marry abroad and are raped and impregnated while the Home Office “turns a blind eye” by handing visas to their husbands, The Times has found. Officials received dozens of reports last year that women wanted to block visas for men they had been made to marry in countries including Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and the United Arab Emirates. In almost half of their cases the visas were approved, records show. Experts believe that there are thousands of victims in Britain as the vast majority are too afraid to come forward.”
And this:
“They accuse the Home Office of failing to block foreign abusers from the country for fear of being called racist, and say it knowingly hands visas to criminals. It is illegal to force someone to marry. Victims are also being let down because immigration lawyers help their families to secure visas for their husbands without the woman’s knowledge.”
If you think this sounds rather familiar, then you’re not alone!
It gets worse:
“Last year officials dealt with 88 cases involving “reluctant sponsors”, a category used to describe those victims who actively try to block a visa or are suspected by officials to be in forced marriages involving a visa application. In 42 of the cases visas were issued anyway and in ten more a decision has yet to be made or an appeal is being heard.”
The ‘excuses’ by ‘officials’ at the Home Office are oh so familiar:
“Experts believe that there are thousands of victims in Britain as the vast majority are too afraid to come forward. Charities and campaigners say that the findings confirm their long-held suspicion that officials ignore reports from victims. They accuse the Home Office of failing to block foreign abusers from the country for fear of being called racist, and say it knowingly hands visas to criminals.”[My emphasis]
We’ve heard this before. Our ruling classes (and Whitehall Mandarins are the Ruling Classes) can’t be seen to be ‘racist’, so they leave the rapists well alone. Any bets that some of those rape-gang criminals came into the country as ‘husbands’ – after having raped their underage ‘wives’ …?
And this, dear friends, is why BoJo’s joke in his article has been occupying our MSM for the last week: to deflect our attention from the true scandal that is the Home Office giving out visas to criminals: forced marriages are illegal, raping under-age girls is illegal – but never mind, keeping them out would be racist. Btw – I’ve yet to see anything from the burqa-defending tribes condemning this practice of forced marriage, rape included, never mind the gang-rapes of white girls in their thousands by the acolytes of that same culture.
I don’t want Ms May gone just because she is traducing Brexit – I want her gone because as Home Secretary she did nothing at all to tackle rape gangs, to tackle the issue of forced marriage, to tackle the rape culture inherent in that one ideology a.k.a. Islam.
Let’s not walk away form this scandal or we’ll see Rotherham, Telford, etc, repeated for years and decades to come. It’s not islamophobic to say that in our country rape and forced marriages to underage girls are illegal, and to demand that our laws be enforced.
> the Home Office – formerly led by our current PM – has actually helped rapists and abusers of women to come into this country Living as you do in the green kingdom, Viv, it is harder for you to do what is easy for Londoners – we can actually drop into the almost aptly named “Lunar House”, where the Visa and Immigration HQ of the Home Office resides. Six or seven years ago, I did so, because I had several hours to kill in Croydon and was curious, mainly about what I then thought of as its utter unfitness-for-purpose.… Read more »

In the middle of November 2014, at Mayor’s Question Time, I faced down Boris Johnson in a packed hall (seating about 1,200, plus hundreds were standing) in Walthamstow. During a heated and then shouted exchange of views, which even touched on intercourse with vacuum cleaners (Google if the relevance isn’t obvious – it’s his doing), BloJo stated that uncontrolled mass immigration was an unmixed blessing to London, and that anyone who said otherwise (viz., me) was “frankly, potty”… Of course, it’s what a Walthamstow audience needed to hear. The carpetbagging opportunist seems to have now developed Opportunistic Amnesia about all… Read more »

The stark reality is that Islamic culture is far more efficient at doing something which western culture is abjectly failing to do. Namely – to get women pregnant. Demographically Muslims are reproducing at a rate well in excess of replacement. In the UK, according to census data (which is probably an under estimate anyway) doubling in size approximately every 12 years. Western culture of women requiring careers, and women waiting vainly for “Mr Right” – their aspirations set unrealistically high, means that many women remain childless, or else (if the IVF treatment works) having one child only when they are… Read more »
Becoming pregnant is the easy bit.
It’s feeding, clothing and housing that is the problem for welfare ponces using their offspring to pick from the magic money tree.
Some yes. However even they are not keeping pace. Overall the indigenous population is in steep decline.
Why should the population increase every year ?
I’m happy for lower numbers living in the UK.
Absolutely. It is ridiculously overcrowded. Of all reasonably populous countries (arbitrarily setting the bar at Lebanon, which has a population of just over 10m, else the likes of Monaco and Vatican City distort the figures), it is shocking that *England* is the fourth most densely-populated country in the world, after only unfortunate Bangladesh, Taiwan and South Korea. We overtook Holland in 2008. And that’s using official Census/ONS figures for the UK, which we know significantly underestimate, for many reasons, the UK’s true population. Additionally, at over 7.6 billion the planet as a whole is hugely overpopulated; many academic studies show… Read more »
You forgot “educating” – or fruitlessly trying to, at least.
And paying for the 50″ LCD Super TVs and BMWs.
They’ve found the perfect marks.
My, my, how times change. To think last September I was called a Nazi for supporting AMW as leader of UKIP.
Sorry! I could not resist that.
But, Anthony, were you called that by someone ostensibly male but who is known to wear women’s leopard print underwear at the time, with a penchant for outrageous lying to his own supporters, wheeling a wildly delusional girl half his age around concealed in a suitcase?

That might ease the sting a bit. 🙂
Thank you for that link Freddy!
We knew, didn’t we, that Ms Marney would come out with a kiss&tell article at one stage … and indeed, some gratuitously salacious titbits are not lacking in her tale.
One wonders, given her ‘take’ on UKIP under Batten and the way she expressed it, if her Henry’s “New Party” isn’t set up as stakeholder for that other former leader of UKIP who not only used the same expressions but also has a track record of playing outside the marital bonds …
I doubt that the person to whom you might be referring would wish to construct anything upon such shifting sands… whatever he might have said to them.
Wait for further instalments. Given that there is a rapidly wasting asset here, photographs may soon be needed to add a bit of colour.
Yes, one simply could not make it up.
They seem well matched. One has baggage, the other is the baggage!
Otherwise sensible members were fooled by Bolton and his seemingly impressive CV. He failed to answer the questionnaire on Islam, which is the next major challenge beyond Brexit. This failure to respond should have rung alarm bells:
https://www.ukipdaily.com/ukip-leadership-questionnaire-well-understand-islam
Being a Liberal will not save us.
What made me suspicious was his ex-liberal leanings at an earlier time.
UKIP prevents former BNP etc from joining (which I understand would exclude Tommy Robinson), and yet they allow ex Lib Dems. Where is the logic in that?
How can someone who was in a party which is the most Europhile, and then move to one diametrically opposite? How did anybody think this was not extraordinary behaviour?
Hugo, we didn’t get to see his “CV” till after the election. What he put on the pull-up boards was both true (or at least very largely true) and impressive.
The actual CV, which included the claims that he had degrees from Sandhurst and City & Guilds – an impossibility as neither is an accredited university, and further neither purport to award degrees – was however submitted to two very senior people in UKIP as part of the vetting procedure…
… and he passed.
There are only two explanations for this.
Which one’s worse?
And their tools are still in operation here in UKIPDaily.
She has a great body though!
Photoshopped, innit.
Tsk. You Welsh are a sceptical lot.
Nah – ’tis an occupational hazard …
Spot on Viv for highlighting this scandal and the cunning deflection. By Jove you’ve got it!
But if anyone thinks Bojo or Mr. Javid is going to do a thing about it, then I am Fanny Hill’s grandmother.
Not much chance of change when a woman with these views is our Prime Minister. Hopefully the furore with Boris will expedite her removal.

Indeed, Adrianne. There is mania etched in the usually passionless, barren features of this vicar’s daughter that I, for one, find very disturbing. Her speeches – if we can even call them that – about Brexit, Europe, the EU etc. are delivered without emotion or even conviction. But here, she is quivering (she is – watch the video) with religious fervour; that it is for Islam adds a new dimension to our difficulties. Is she merely prostituting herself for votes, in the proud tradition of many Tories before her, or is there more to it than that? Who was it… Read more »
I assume you mean that video in which Ms May condemns BoJo and finishes saying she stand with her Party Chairman on the point of disciplining Boris.
To me, she looks fatally similar to her backbench anti-Brexit ‘rebel’ Ms Soubry …
No, I was referring the video to which Adrianne linked – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvgeHR4NzYI
Though I’m sure there’s no shortage of other Treason May videos to appal me. Did the madwoman also show passion in her condemnation of carpetbagger BoJo?
Well, she has confidence that none of her children will have to change his or her surname to escape the stain of treachery and treason.
What an awful condemnation of the last five PMs of this country that by far the best of them was John Major.
Theresa May cannot even get her facts straight – Ramadan is NOT a holy month.
She has little enough credibility anyway, but this is a very straightforward fact to check. What fool is advising her or checking her scripts?
She does whatever her Chief Imam tells her, Hugo.
If she doesn’t, he may chastise her using daraba (the same as idribuhunna), as sanctified and encouraged in Surah An-Nisa, 34 (Qu’ran 4:34); Sahih al-Bukhari 7:62:132, 7:72:715, 8:73:68; Sahih Muslim 4:2127; Sunan Abu Dawood, 11:2141-2, etc.
No wonder that most of the time the wretched creature looks like someone who’s swallowed a lemon.
To think, we all thought we were getting another Maggie!
We won’t have another woman PM for decades after this!
Tempting though it May be, prudence (no, not a late aunt of mine) prevents me from commenting, Harold…
In London we have to contend not only with having the traitorous infestation in and around Downing Street and Whitehall (think Olly), but also the North & West London Treason Co-operative (Comrade Corbyn, “Numbers” Diane Abbott, “Jihad” John McDonnell, Flag-hating Emily Thornberry and “Mastermind” David Lammy, to name but a handful) and the direkt rulership of the Khan Mayor and the Dick Head of the met.
Is the fear of being called racist code for Common Purpose open border tyrants in the Home Office and PCS bypassing democracy to implement Soros policies (no question mark).
Yes. I’d go further. The Home Office apparently exists to facilitate forced marriage and the rape of young girls.
The general outrage regarding the descriptions that Boris used have somewhat obscured the more salient points: – How many Muslim women, if they had a truly free choice, would wear face-covering clothes? – Muslim men are permitted to beat their wives. How many of these women are hiding physical injuries? Nobody will ever notice, and the husbands will never be reprimanded. – What really are the verses in the Koran relating to clothing for women? Boris could be pedantically correct regarding face covering specifically, while at the same time missing the general repressive attitude to women within the Koran. Boris… Read more »
Hugo – you’ve also fallen for it!
It’s not about the burqa or a ban thereof or what BoJo said – it’s about the scandal that the Home office has given out visa to abusive, violent rapists because they have ‘married’ schoolgirls in forced marriages.
The scandal is that this has been going on for a decade, and the authorities don’t act because that would be racist. Rotherham ring any bells?
And thanks to everybody now talking about the burqa nobody is talking about this issue which was reported a week ago.
Viv, interesting point. Do you suppose that Boris is covering the backside of the Home Secretary?
If so, is it deliberate or purely coincidental?
Would Boris fall on his own sword in order to help a Muslim advance to become PM?
Funnily enough, this has also occurred to me – that this was done in order to deflect critique from the current Home Secretary. Boris is a very clever chap and who knows what skulduggery was going on behind closed doors, between Mr Javid and Boris, e.g. “you help me out now – I’ll help you topple May and you help me when it’s my turn …”
The hair apparent!
LOL!
🙂
Haha !
One is tempted to slightly adapt Hamlet’s famous soliloquy, substituting “p” for “b”…
Hopefully that is too opaque for those with minds so small as to castigate me for the same.
From two puzzled emails, I see I was too opaque even for those not in the sway of the chihuahua from West London:
“Toupee, or not toupee”
Jack Straw made almost exactly the same remarks a while back.
See link below.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/5413470.stm
Yes, but that’s not what this is about – it’s not about who said was about the burqa, it’s about the way this has been used to deflect from the real scandal: that the Home Office has and probably is giving out visa to ‘husbands’ of forced marriages to schoolgirls whom they’ve abused and raped.
But there’s a conspiracy to hide the facts and stop action being taken against these people.
Anybody that comments is smeared in a very organised fashion.
Or anyone seen as a threat to Sharia May.
The MSM/politicians must think we’re all stupid.
This entire kult needs to be banned from the UK.
It’s evil in so many ways.
Of course it is – and of course the MSM think we’re stupid.
That’s why we need to be relentless and not let ourselves distracted.
The Home Office is an accessory after the fact to (paedophile or near paedophile) rape carried out offshore, and then an accessory before the fact to the continuation of that
Like many in the Police, judiciary, CPS, councillors, council staff, child protective services, parliament, other organs of government, all being accessories to paedophile gang rape on an industrial scale. Fuelled not only by a fear of being called “waaycist” by a corrupt leftwing MSM, but also motivated to atone for imaginary sins done by the forefathers of the raped mites.
Filthy and disgusting.
So its OK by the Tory establishment if uber Remainer Ken Clark MP describes the burka as ‘a kind of bag’ but calls for an apology and possible expulsion from the Conservative Party for Brexiteer B J describing the burka as looking like ‘ a letter box’.

It has appeared to me that the Tories are setting their stall out to compete with Labour for the muslim vote. All establishment political parties become like each other sooner or later.
Jake – the issue is not what Boris said or what the Tories, appeasers all, are now saying and doing. The issue is that the scandal about the Home Office issuing visa to criminals (forced marriage is illegal int his country) and that the MSM and the politicians across the boards prefer to talk about the soft issue of a burqa ban which Boris has explicitly rejected, and about his ‘letterbox’ quip rather than stand up to the past Home secretaries and demand an accounting. “Looking into it” is not enough – but hey, since nobody in the MSM is… Read more »
Viv Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. If the facts that you present are indisputable then they will fester and come to the fore and we should be active in ensuring they do.
I’ve quoted at length from the reports by the investigative reporter of The Times. These reports were published at that august paper, and we can be certain that their lawyers have been through them with a fine tooth comb.
So yes, the facts are sadly indisputable. I am reminded of the reports by another investigative reporter in The Times, these many years ago, who dragged the Rotherham scandal into the nation’s consciousness.
But then again, talking about BoJo and the banning or not for the burqa is just what is needed to stop people asking inconvenient questions …
Thankyiu Viv for exposing this hypocrisy. I can only shake my head in despair. What a stinking mess. Theresa Msy deserves her nickname and even worse Shsria May
She really has to go.
I’m told there’s a Law which makes forced marriages illegal in this country, introduced in 2014. To my certain knowledge this is now 2018 – and still the Home Office hands out visa to these criminals.
But hey – no worries, chattering about BoJo is what’s really important!
With Sharia May in Downing Street, and Dick Head of the met, in order to appease paedophile rapists (including “”husbands””) I wouldn’t be surprised if police officers soon receive instructions to deliver drugged teenage girls to the traffickers – and not even for their usual percentage (taking a cut of prostitution revenues being a proud tradition of Britain’s corrupt police farces).
How low “we” have sunk.
It’s so true. How dare people complain about Boris s comments and the government then waste a week on it! Look at what has gone on for the last 30 years with grooming gangs etc and the establishment just sit there wondering how not to offend anyone … Whole young lives ruined and trashed by perverts while send cops on diversity training .., !
Oh for a bag of itching powder!
I’d prefer a quiver of darts … or a pea-shooter … I’m afraid I get a bit violent-minded when I see all these bums-in-the-air.
Oop North, we call them arse sniffers.
Apparently farting in a mosque is considered bad form/disrespectful to allah.
Surely farting in church is bad form too! At least they’re easier to hold in the way we kneel to pray.
Perhaps in Surrey.
In London, we know how to hold back and when to let off.
What’s wrong with a .44 Magnum?
Great piece. The appeasers in the Tory party have triumphed again as they lead us into a conflict that someone with a pair could have helped us avoid. UKIPPERS, stick to the path, keep the faith and never surrender. We will win this – we have seen our cities blitzed and lost a million men in the mincer. As the mist clears and the Sharia-lovers presence grows, the decision point will near. At that time you will be able to enjoy seeing justice being served on the fellow-traveler apologists, and then on the capital-punishment loving abusers and enforcers of the… Read more »
Talking about squirrels! The Red Squirrel was the native species in Britain, that is, until the Grey squirrel was introduced. Now all you see are Grey Squirrels and the Red Squirrel is a rarity.
I feel there is a lesson to be learn’t from this considering the mass immigration, particularly Islamic immigration, that we see in what is still just about our country today.
I’m beginning to wonder if the introduction of Grey squirrels was an early experiment in globalisation and race replacement?
This is an excellent comparison!
To be followed by the black squirrel:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-11444893
A strange similarity is that not many grey squirrels and economic migrants fancy living in Scotland.
I don’t know how many trillions of pounds have been spent – and still need to be spent – on investigating and prosecuting and incarcerating the people (mostly but not exclusively men) responsible for all this misery and ruination of lives, but I do know for sure that not one penny’s worth of expense would have been needed if the mass immigration of people of foreign cultures had never been permitted.
And that makes me very very angry.
Odd – nobody wants to comment … I was looking forward to read something on UKIP Daily when I saw the articles in the Times last week, and here it is. It’s no surprise that our MSM didn’t pick up on it, not after Rotherham and all that, but it is a surprise that there’s no reaction on here.
Have we all become tired of reading about the same old rape culture that is islam?
