Britain is rapidly becoming a police state, with remarks that are outside the bounds of acceptable opinion punished more harshly than actual crimes. I was banned from the country for telling the truth about the jihad threat. As a free society, the UK is dead.
“Met Say Charging Shoplifters, Vandals ‘Not Practical’ as Arrests for ‘Offensive’ Comments Rise 53 Per Cent,” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, October 17, 2017:
London’s Metropolitan Police Force has said it will give up on investigating many instances of “low-level” crime such as shoplifting and vandalism, saying it is “not practical” to fight them in a time of cutbacks.
Story continues below advertisementDeputy Assistant Commissioner Mark Simmons claimed that giving up on investigating many offences was necessary so police constables’ efforts could be “focused on serious crime and cases where there is a realistic chance that we will be able to solve it.”
The move has raised eyebrows among members of the public, considering recent reports that the Met detained 867 out of the 3,395 people known to have been arrested for “offensive” online comments under the Malicious Communications Act in 2016 — an increase of 53 per cent for the force area since 2014.
Around half of these investigations ended up having to be dropped across the UK, which critics have taken as indicating police are being overzealous in their attempts to take on so-called trolls….

How nauseating that the bastion of free speech and freedom(for all but the UK small people) for so many centuries is now the best example (along with Germany after October 1st) of Eric Blair’s worst nightmare. The fact that the UK police are targeting free speech far more than actual crimes totally defies, logic, common sense and the rule of law as in the west. May and Heard need to be removed and IMHO by any means necessary. I guess I had better cancel my UK trip now. Other than Nigel Farrage I cannot think of ONE UK politicians I would warn if Guy Fawkes returned to do it properly. How ironic that the “usual suspects” when it comes to bombs in the UK would NEVER do a “Guy Fawkes” as the fools there are their best chance of obtaining a sharia state.
Michelle, come to the UK anywhere you want, but remember while London has all the famous tourist sites, it’s now a world city with everyone mixed up, if you want to experience the real thing, come to our provincial towns, my local one is Horsham or there’s Guildford, look em up, you’ll feel right at home {and the shops in Guildford will make your Amex card weep}.
No problems with the other lot I assure you, just a wonderful experience.
So is a tour of pakistan, much cheaper than englandistan. Same high prices and bad service.
Pakistain is the trip best not taken.
pakistan or any other western european Jamahiriya, all much the same.
The Chinese are smart — they’re building exact replicas of German villages in their country (the son of Albert Speer is involved in the construction project), so they can visit Germanistan like it used to be, before the muslum invasion, but without any Germans.
And now even Korea is doing so:
http://travel.cnn.com/seoul/visit/korea-build-another-german-village-023609/
The “pre merkel” germany no longer exists, being replaced by a bastardized islamic wasteland more closely resembling a septic field than a civilized country. To see german culture it will be necessary to visit the far east. To visit islamic wastelands, western europe.
Why the far Eastern love affair w/the Germans? Why not English villages? Or Czech? Or Swiss? Or Italian? For that full authentic flavour maybe they could import some Europeans to populate the villages and mutter in their native languages.
If you visit Bradford or Londons Wembley, Leicester and many other towns it is the same as visiting Pakistan. If you prefer Bangladesh than its Tower Hamlets in London 🙁
Sorry but I was being rhetorical about the UK trip. I lived in the UK on/off for some time as a PG student and was dragged into becoming an unwilling “football supporter”. I have not a few relatives there still but because of my opinions/action I am marked as unwelcome and I wont go back,. Frankly after my last trip into London, it looked more like uptown Karachi and I was appalled. In addition, after slapping( it was a karate chop and broke his nose) “someone” properly for groping. I was advised to leave as they were after my blood and came around to the building several times looking for me..about 12 of them. I wanted to stay but the police told my family that I should leave (as opposed to protecting me) and were incensed that I had the nerve to defend myself and very much so when I said that I would kill anyone trying to kill me or mine. So I know all about the utterly useless UK police.
“Uptown Karachi”. LOL. But wouldn’t downtown Karachi be more urban and the adhan be more musical and endearing?
Britain is not becoming a “police” state…It is becoming a Muslim state.
I will never visit London again.
The botanical garden was wonderful.
But I’ll visit the one in St. Louis, MO.
London is safer.
Statistics would prove otherwise.
I’m not sure that’s true, once you get out of the ‘hood.
I live in London. You are wrong. London is fast turning into turd world shitehole.
I have not been there in a long time, so accept your view. But in St Louis, drive fast and don’t stop.
You are lucky you can drive fast, London is most of the time grid-locked and infested with scooter gangs. If you get targeted there is no way to escape. Police response is “they are too fast for us”.
Latest reports say that London crime is worse than NY.
They going the same path sweden is headed.
Police begging for help, legal system collapsing. swedish police is so overworked, outnumbered that the Police chief is begging for help from his own govt http://bit.ly/2s75qAn
But they are too busy bringing in more jihadis and dumb Left/liberal women I heard are allowing themselves be their sex slaves so they won’t be killed !
Amen, Drifter12, you are absolutely right. My wife visits family in London once a year. Every year she comes home shaking her head with despair. Like you, those not semi-comatose realize Britain, as we knew it, is no more. They have capitulated to Islam without a bleat, soon the non-Muslims will be led to the local halal abattoir.
Google is paying 97$ per hour,with weekly payouts.You can also avail this.
On tuesday I got a great new Land Rover Range Rover from having earned $11752 this last four weeks..with-out any doubt it’s the most-comfortable job I have ever done .. It sounds unbelievable but you wont forgive yourself if you don’t check it

Muslum states are all totalitarian so that makes sense.
A police state might be an improvement to the current situation.
You might think so, until they begin rounding up islamofauxbs and putting them in camps to improve their concentration.
So long as it is neither the left nor islam that is running it.
In actual fact, THAT is the ONLY viable solution.
you are1000% right, thank G’d I don’t live there!
Muslim hater dirty kuffar natanyahoo’s a$$ sukker
Contemporary English sonnet.
How art English stupid?
Let me count the ways.
Stupid to the depth and breadth and height of absurdity
when feeling out of your mind
For submission to islam and fear of being called a bigot.
Thou art stupid every day’s Most quiet need, to grovel to islam. Stupid freely, as men strive for political correctness.
Thou art stupid, as they who submit to islam.
Thou art stupid with the passion put to use in political correctness, and with mutgonad, police beat upon him’s faith.
Stupid thee with a ignorance seemed to get
With your lost mind .
Stupid with the grovelling , snivelling , of all your life; and, if alice choose, I shall be stupider after death.
Your starting to sound like Kim Jong Un, he talks gibberish too.
You sound like an old muslim poet, archaic, incomprehensible and out of date. Pity they don’t have better madrassa’s in britanistan.
When will come the time that they will claim that investigating cases of murder (with sole exemption of murder committed by non-Muslim against any Muslim) and hunting down murderers is “not practical,” we would know that they are lost beyond redemption.
The Met is just one of our city forces which has become more politicised than is good either for their reputation or the public good and this is dangerous.
Most of the alleged 900 officers engaged on checking for “offensive” tweets or facebook remarks would be better employed in securing people from the real threat of some of those 20,000 plus potential jihadists they’re not monitoring or come to it the mosques they frequent.
Sorry to say it but the present women in charge at HMG are just not up to the challenge and should go PDQ, oh and Pamela, consider dropping the raw prawn act over your banning, it was 4 years ago and we know about it, Salman Rushdie has been under a fatwa for 32 years, young G Wilders for over 12, it’s not the end of the world, go speak elsewhere like you used to, go round them.
britanistan was the foundation of freedom and democracy since the Magna Carta, today it is shariah compliant. The public has to be reminded of what is going on, frequently.
The 1st democracy was Greek and it predated even the pretense of literacy anywhere in Western Europe and even JP by nearly a thousand years.
I think Pamela’s banning is worth an occasional reminder. For one thing, it remains an injustice that succinctly characterizes the rot of a once great nation. Second, people new to the counter jihad movement need to be made aware of the UK’s state of dhimmitude and cowardice.
Pamela’s banning is an action the uK took to limit discussion of the truth. Rushdie’s fatwa protection was to protect someone against the murderousness of Islam. Would that the UK were a little more consistent in that endeavor.
Actually it is NOT about justice but about blatant bias and hypocrisy.
Her point has always been one of ironic comparison as opposed to the “bleating” insinuation.
I wonder if muslum rape/enslavement of kafir al najjis women or girls are worth their time to investigate anymore?
Only after a few thousand complaints.
Brit-aint no more
The number one top priority of the British authorities is hunting down those filthy “Islamophobes”. All else is secondary, they have made that clear, and continue to make it clear on a regular basis, just in case anyone forgets.
What’s the easiest bust? Busting some coach potato is such an easy bust, you already have the evidence from his social media post, evidence that will hold up in court, you already have him identified, and you know he won’t have a chance to get away.
Shoplifting, vandalism, generally hard just to ID and find the perps, dangerous to apprehend them, hard to make the charges stick in court, and probably at best a light sentence even if you do.
That’s the problems with victimless crimes in general, they are the easiest busts, so the default tendency is to focus on them, and ignore the hard and dangerous busts.
The department has a lot of senior civil servants who are hardcore Labor Party supporters.
As are almost ALL public service departments in the west. Best superannuation, best leave, best retirement packages, virtually “unsackable” and an open line to every leftist MSM rag, This is the wall that Trump has hit and which undermines EVERY non leftist leader in the west.
London’s Metropolitan Police Force has said it will give up on investigating many instances of “low-level” crime such as shoplifting and vandalism …
If nothing else made it clear that the UK was finished as an moral (ok, that one’s questionable) or economic force in the world, I think this does. Once Great Britain, allow me to present you Muggsy and Guido.
Marie Anne Waters has just started a new party “For Britain” , which intends to restore traditional sanity.
The whole notion of “hate crime” is an abortion. It started coming in about 10 years ago. About 10 years prior to that you had rumbling at the UN to try and legislate correct politcal attitudes on subjects involving race. This has been brewing for a long time, and it is Europe-wide ; in fact thanks to bodies like the UN – it is WORLD-wide. At the Un they are pushing for blasphemy laws. The insanity is everywhere. It is in the air. It is pointless to villify any nation for being stupid. We need a crash course in why freedom of speech is a bed-rock freedom : we need to understand and value these things which until relatively recently were taken for granted , and at least understood in political and legal circles . ( Now they are not) . It is demoralisin.g What must they think in Eastern Europe? No sooner does a big chunk of the world finally manage to throw off the incubus of political mind control, then the “free West” decides to stumble into the same snake pit.
Actually we need a very bloody war to rid ourselves of the problem and its causes. nothing else will work.
So UK government, the answer is not to arrest the vandals and thieves, but the people that complain about them. Brilliant! Bobbys need to start carrying shotguns.
There are no bobbies in UK anymore. They were replaced by freemasonic corporate protection force and current cutbacks in police finance are only weeding out good coppers.
Guess Brussels has willed it so, Lord have mercy on UK and uphold western civilization.
“The move has raised eyebrows among members of the public.”
It’s the problem. It just ‘raises eyebrows.’ The English appear to have no will to actually resist, and stand up and speak and fight. The risk of being imprisoned for speaking up is real there. Preview of coming attractions here in America.
The UK little people have been downtrodden since Richard Cromwell died and no one cares about them. The leftist political parties pretend to do so but they never explain the cost.
Sad to see what his happening. To see what is being done, by politicians who sold themselves to the globalists long ago. Done to good men and women. All over the world, too.
Talk about a green light to shoplifters: go ahead, take what you want, we don’t have time to do anything about it.
BUT … if you say ‘Islam preaches death to non-believers,’ get ready for arrest, with a real chance of going to prison.
What policemen would think that way?? To forgo shoplifting, stealing, etc., to go investigate and arrest on-line trolls???
That’s not a policeman, that’s a person retarded for Islam. Get out of the police farce before you become mental.
simply saying (Or thinking) “I hate Islam” in the UK is an arrestable offence.
The total stupidity of Hate crime laws is also simple. Hate is a human emotion and virtually everyone loves and hates. The stupidity of the left is they think by making hate illegal they will make everyone love each other????
Human history, which of course the left are trying to destroy tell a very different story, its called the truth.
Shoplifting and vandalism are “low level crimes”. So is lying and murder, whether done by muslims or non-muslims. But don’t you dare criticize islam, or you’ll be thrown into the dungeon. This is straining out the gnat and swallowing the camel. My God — the just and holy One — sees things differently. Even those who did nothing but tell little “white” lies, will shudder on Judgment Day, and it will be too late.
Is that how large a shofar usually is?
Not all shofars are that large as shown here (about the size of a Yemenite). Most of them seem to be much smaller, about the size of ram’s horns. The latter are less expensive to buy. One site to compare sizes is at https://www.israel365.com/store/product-category/judaica/shofars/?a=17&gclid=Cj0KCQjwybvPBRDBARIsAA7T2khpTtYd3MVoukdiTW8uP7NuLtREQb9X_vN-D7cPz3ZCDfam9ouZp8IaApYYEALw_wcB.

It must be quite a job to learn how to sound a shofar that size.
Thanks for the interesting information.
Banning sharia law and taking away islam’s claim to being a religion would be a good start.
The country of which we speak should take a long look at itself. You either allow free speech or you do not. Is it the oil? Is it dependency on the oil? How did they get to the state they are in? Pay less attention to the wealthy popular rulers, what they are wearing, whom they are marrying, and pay attention to that which is important. Their freedom, way of life, identity, is being discussed to put it mildly. I feel it was exceedingly wise to exit the eu. I feel the citizens should vote wisely and be free to discuss their views. They need to get involved.
Men will forever have to struggle and to defend that which is dear, freedom being close to the to of the list.
To the people of Britain:
Please, don’t try to shut down people who speak out about problems like jihad, or about the rapes committed by migrants. Making them quiet won’t help the situation. It won’t make the attacks or rapes or assaults go away.
Instead, focus on stopping the jihadists, the rapists, and anyone who does harm. Contact your government, protest, pressure them to focus on protecting your people from terrorism and jihad. You can do it. It isn’t too late to prevent more terror attacks. It isn’t too late to save lives.
Scooter gang crime has risen over 600% just in last two years. That includes robbery, acid attacks, theft and assault with deadly weapons (machete, knives and even guns). Police is not even allowed to chase perpetrators as they might get hurt. Some of the perpetrators have been arrested 60, 70 and even 80 times according to police and still are walking free.
Yet, try to get out and say that “submit” is evil ideology and before you know it you’ll have dozen coppers on you with police chopper circling above.
Libtards transforming cops into kindergarden cops. Main tasks:
Do a minimum amount of tickets to fill the safes. Only do it to the natives, but do it for whichever reason you may think off, as your masters’s welfair isn’t going to pay for itself.
Help muslims masters cross the street. Get stabbed and ask for apologies.
Tip off muslims masters about raids, full identify of victims/accusers and ways to get away with it.
Pursue Islamophobia vigorously. Employ deadly force (using flame speech and farts) if necessary. Show your masters you care.
The Brits along with the EU have lost whatever sanity they ever had. That’s called screwing yourself. DUMB!!!
Typical Authoritarian isn’t it? Make everything subject to some kind of state approval or risk fines and incarceration. Just like here in the States. You must be certified for everything you attempt to do in the work place. Be it local, state or federal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRjhmp6_SL4
