UK: Conservative Party candidate suspended for calling Islam “the new Nazism”

Ironically, one of the tweets that got Karen Sunderland suspended was one in which she noted that Islam suppresses the freedom of speech. The British authorities are now racing to impose sharia blasphemy laws and silence all those who dare to criticize Islam.

The spokesperson did not confirm when she was suspended.

Lewisham Labour mayoral candidate Damien Egan called for Ms Sunderland’s removal.

He said: “We welcome the removal of this candidate following her appalling remarks.

“Islamophobic comments like this are deeply divisive and they have no place in our community.

“Lewisham’s diversity and openness is our greatest strength.”…
