At last someone high profile wakes up

How on earth can we ever integrate with people like this?

 

Trevor Phillips is the archetypal ordinary boy from immigrant stock done good, and good luck to him. Born in Islington, when it was a working class area and before it was a bastion of the middle class Left, he has achieved a lot. He did well at school, attended a Russell Group University and eventually ended up as part of the Establishment. A bit of a polymath, among Mr Phillips’ various achievements such as jobs in media and elsewhere, he has also spent time at the heart of the part of the Establishment that fell head over heels in love with the idea of Multiculturalism.

So far his CV reads like many other members of the great and good, that arrogant group of individuals who tell the rest of us to ‘shut up and enjoy the diversity’. However Mr Phillips is different, he has at least admitted that Islam has not integrated and that the odds of it doing so are not good.

Where many others in the diversity field have just stuck their fingers in their ears and gone ‘la la can’t hear you’ when confronted with evidence that Islam constitutes a particular problem for Britain, Mr Phillips has instead spoken out. When other people who occupy positions of a similar level and type to his, but act as cheerleaders for the encroachment of Islam in areas where it is not wanted, Trevor Phillips has instead spoken of the problems that Islam has brought.

Although Mr Phillips has taken a long time to speak out about Islam, and its inability to integrate with mainstream British culture, he should at least be given credit for speaking out about the problems, something that our Prime Minister often fails to do. Also too many other people who work in his field of diversity and equality fail to see the problems of Islam or are too cowardly to act upon information that shows quite plainly that Islam is NOT a religion of peace. Yes some may say he should have spoken up earlier but I say at least give him some credit for speaking up now.

Here’s how Brietbart treated this story yesterday. As is usual policy for this blog the original text is in italics and my comment is in plain text.

Brietbart said:

The former head of Britain’s Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), Trevor Phillips, has admitted he “got almost everything wrong” on Muslim immigration in a damning new report on integration, segregation, and how the followers of Islam are creating “nations within nations” in the West.

I think that Mr Phillips can count himself in company with a lot of people who ‘got Islam wrong’ for many years. Myself included. Those of us from mixed areas who’d seen Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jews all integrating to a lesser or greater extent but still respecting or at least abiding by the laws and customs of Britain, had quite good grounds for thinking that the followers of Islam would do the same. But I was wrong about that, just as Mr Phillips was.

The sort of communities that Islam creates in the non-Muslim world go beyond what can merely be described as a ‘ghetto’ but instead need to be described as hostile citadels of Islam. Many Britons,of all faiths and races, are starting to wake up to the fact that Muslims are not exactly like ‘new Jews’, peaceful and hard working, but are more like the ‘new Nazis’. It’s hard to describe the sort of societies that Islam has constructed in Britain in any other way.

The rapes, the terror, the corrupting of local politics, the extreme separatism and the hyper-misogyny of Islam all mark it out as being different and dangerous. Muslims have confounded received and often accurate wisdom that 2nd and 3rd generation immigrants, although they may hold to different belief systems than the majority, are much more integrated than their parents and their grandparents.

Muslims have not integrated to anything like the degree that should have been expected to happen. In fact, as time has gone on we have seen much more Islamic segregation than we see from followers of other faiths or from members of other immigrant groups. This segregation along with the inherent and constant exhortations to violence in Islamic scripture means that non-Muslims do fear violence and oppression in areas where either there are many Muslims or Islamic interests control the local authority. You don’t see that with almost any other ethno-religious group.

Non-Jews do not fear walking through Stamford Hill or Golders Green and neither do non-Hindus or non-Sikhs fear random violence from the followers of those particular religious paths. However, many people do fear walking through Tower Hamlets or Waltham Forest or Bradford or any of the other places that the followers of Islam have colonised. Islam is segregationist, supremacist and violent and I’m thankful that one member of the Establishment at least has started to notice.

Phillips, a former elected member of the Labour Party who served as the Chairman of the EHRC from 2003-2012 will present “What British Muslims Really Think” on Channel 4 on Wednesday. An ICM poll released to the Times ahead of the broadcast reveals: 

It would be helpful if this article on Brietbart could be amended to show that Mr Phillips was an elected member of the London Assembly. At present the way it is written makes him look either like an elected officer of the Labour Party or a former Member of Parliament.

The survey undertaken for the programme threw up some statistics that will shock those who still believe that Islam is a religion of peace or those who I call the ‘10%’ers’. Some of the figures are outstandingly worrying.

  • One in five Muslims in Britain never enter a non-Muslim house;

I’m racking my brains here and I can’t think of any other group that could ‘boast’ of such a figure? I try to look into the extremes of other non-Islamic faiths and I can’t think of an example that even approaches this number. The number of people who are Protestant Christians who would not enter the house of a Roman Catholic is infinitesimally tiny. This number 1 in 5 is huge in comparison. I look at my own faith, Judaism for similar examples and even though we have our own nutters (some other Jews consider me to be ‘the nutter’) I still can’t find enough nutters to come close to the number of Muslims who have nothing to do with non-Muslims.

I think that even someone on the far right of Haredi Judaism would not have a problem in entering the home of a non-Haredi Jew or a non Jew if it was necessary. They may not wish to eat or drink there for reasons of Kosher dietary laws, but the idea that such a person would be so utterly divorced from those outside their belief system is astounding. BTW, a note to my non-Jewish readers, I know that even though I keep Kosher, my house and my kitchen is never going to be Kosher enough for some Haredi Jews LOL.

  • 39 per cent of Muslims, male and female, say a woman should always obey her husband;

Another staggeringly high figure that shows just how little respect Muslims have for the rights of women. It also shows how much disrespect the ideology of Islam has for our own values and our own laws.

  • 31 per cent of British Muslims support the right of a man to have more than one wife;

Yet more worrying extremism from British Muslims. It’s a very high figure indeed. You may note of course that Muslims are none too keen on a woman having more than one husband. This goes with the misogynist Islamic tendency to treat women as property.

  • 52 per cent of Muslims did not believe that homosexuality should be legal;

This figure really should make the useful idiots of the ‘LGBT Against Islamophobia’ brigade sit up and take notice. It’s taken decade after decade for LGB people to win first a grudging and then a more general acceptance among the wider population. These gains could all be lost if the Islamic community wields too much influence or Britain continues on the disastrous path of Islamopandering that we have been on for far too long.

  • 23 per cent of Muslims support the introduction of Sharia law rather than the laws laid down by parliament.

This is highly dangerous. People need to realise that Shariah law is intended not just to bind Muslims but bind everyone, including us Kafir. Unlike Church Canon Law or Jewish Halacha, Shariah applies universally and is not only applicable to believers in these particular faiths. My right to ban bacon in my home stops at my front door but Shariah carries on out the front door, along the street and across the town, banning bacon and just about anything else that ‘offends’ Islam (a lot of things ‘offend’ Islam, including my right to live and breathe).

Because Muslims are brought up with the idea that Sharia Law is supreme, it is difficult to convince some Muslims that Shariah is subservient to the civil law and the criminal law. This also feeds into the reasons for scandals like the Islamic Rape Gangs. Because Shariah sees non-Muslim girls as nothing more that property or playthings, then it is more likely that Muslims men will have zero empathy for vulnerable girls and young women. Islam created the Islamic Rape Gangs and these revelations and Mr Phillips’s comments on the issue, should leave us in no doubt about this. I’ve been following these Islamic Rape Gang cases for a couple of years now and I have looked at the names and they are nearly all Islamic names. Of course, there are the smattering of English,Sikh and Hindu names among the offenders but such a tiny proportion as to be insignificant. The majority on street groomers and rapists are Muslims.

Writing in the Times on the issue, Phillips admits: “Liberal opinion in Britain has, for more than two decades, maintained that most Muslims are just like everyone else… Britain desperately wants to think of its Muslims as versions of the Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, or the cheeky-chappie athlete Mo Farah. But thanks to the most detailed and comprehensive survey of British Muslim opinion yet conducted, we now know that just isn’t how it is.”

Mr Phillips and the survey are correct. The cold, hard facts of the matter are that no matter how much we may wish the followers of Islam to be like all those other groups who have successfully settled in the UK and who have contributed much to our national life, it ain’t going to happen. Islam is as Islam does and this appalling death cult will continue be what it is. It’s never going to become ‘like us’ it will always be alien, it will always be violent and oppressive. As I’ve said so often in the past it is one of the great tragedies of history that Britain did not become a haven for ex-Muslims struggling against the oppressive chains of Islam. Instead successive governments invited in the very believing Muslims who want to oppress or murder ex Muslims. Ex Muslims in Britain too often live in fear because of the violent intolerance of believing Muslims, we should never have tolerated this, but we did.

Phillips commissioned “the Runnymede report” into Britain and Islamophobia in 1997 which, according to both Phillips himself and academics across the country, popularised the phrase which has now become synonymous with any criticism – legitimate or not – of Islam or Muslims.

Although those who popularised the phrase ‘Islamophobia’ may have had in mind the picture of innocent people of Muslim background being attacked purely because they are Muslim, that’s not how the word has ended up being used. It has been used by Islamic organisations and various mendacious grievance mongering taqiyya artists to cover any negative opinion about Islam, even when it is justified.

On the subject of the mendacious grievance mongering taqiyya artists of Islam, it should be noted that the disgraced ‘anti Islamophobia monitor’ Tell Mama have started to get in on the act already by retweeting comments calling the survey and its findings ‘divisive’, They are also (surprise surprise) doubling down with their campaign to influence the way newspapers report the subject of Islam. To that end they have joined together with the censorious Left-wingers of Hacked Off.

Despite whatever type of spin that the Islamic community and its Quislings may try to put on it, these figures do not bode well for the future. They don’t promise ‘community cohesion’ but communal conflict. They show a community that appears to hold the rest of the British people, the nation and British culture in contempt. Despite millions of pounds being flung at Britain’s Islamic community we still do not have real and genuine integration.

The figures are massive. The taxpayer has in terms of grant aid to organisations assisting Muslims, multi-generational welfare payments, and massive healthcare costs for the deliberately damaged children of Islamic cousin marriage, stumped up a lot, but we still have Islam problems. I can think of no other settled religious ethnic community that has cost us so much but delivered so little in terms of benefits to the nation as the followers of Islam.

We should not underestimate the importance of Trevor Phillips speaking out. Here we have a cast iron solid member of the Leftist diversity Establishment who cannot abide the lies and the self deception any more. Britain does have a massive problem with Islam that it doesn’t have with other ethnic or religious groups and we must not and cannot deny that any longer.

I can only hope that Mr Phillips speaking up presages a much needed period of honesty about Islam from those in authority and about the massive number of problems that Islam has brought to our shores.
