This story from today’s Telegraph should bring a smile to the face of anybody concerned about the linked phenomena of the ideology of Islam, its political face Islamism and the ongoing problem of Jihad.

It seems that it was not only alleged financial and electoral problems that have caused the Coaltion government to intervene in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, but also extremist Islamic activity going on there.

Many blogs and newspaper articles have documented the takeover of the Borough by groups linked to the South Asian clerical fascist organisation, Jamaat e Islaami and their European front group, Islamic Forum Europe. Now at last it seems that the Security Service (MI5) have brought the problems of this sort in Tower Hamlets to the attention of the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government.

The Sunday Telegraph is carrying a cracking piece by Andrew Gilligan who many may know as a doughty fighter against Islamist and Jihadist organisations.

The Telegraph said:

A London council at the centre of an investigation into alleged fraud is also under scrutiny over its links to Islamic extremism, according to a classified government document leaked to The Telegraph.

Ministers sent inspectors to Tower Hamlets council, in east London, last week to investigate the alleged abuse of public resources to reward supporters of Lutfur Rahman, its controversial directly-elected mayor.

However, the leaked document, classified “restricted”, makes it clear there may be another, publicly unstated motive for the action — deep concern among ministers and the Prime Minister over the council’s alleged support for extremist-linked bodies.

As early as last year, the document shows, David Cameron’s task force tackling extremism and radicalisation secretly drew up a special “Tower Hamlets action plan” to address problems with the council.

MI5, police counter-terrorism command, a number of other agencies and “senior local officers” from the council itself have “discreetly” provided information about the authority, it says.”

As if further evidence was needed to damn the current leadership of Tower Hamlets council as fifth columnists, the leaked document contained this worrying information:

The document says Mr Rahman is “unwilling to actively engage with or promote” counter-extremism policies and the council has shown “a lack of willingness to tackle some institutions that still tolerate or promote non-violent extremism, such as the Water Lily conference centre and the Tayyibun Institute”.

Both venues, in Whitechapel, regularly host extremist speakers and the document notes that the Tayyibun Institute has been allowed to advertise in Tower Hamlets’ official newspaper, East End Life. “While not unlawful, these are not the actions ministers would expect of a local authority committed to tackling extremism,” it says.”

Tower Hamlets is showing day by day that it is more than just a council riddled with corruption and financial mismanagement, it is much, much worse than that, it is a dangerous and extremist friendly enemy outpost, nestling in the middle of Britain’s capital city.

The level of extremism, communal politics and corruption that we are seeing in Tower Hamlets should not be seen as an isolated case, I would be very surprised if misbehaviour like this is going on in other Islamic/Labour Party fiefdoms up and down the land.

Sadly Tower Hamlets is not alone, but I’m pleased to see that at long last, the powers that be are taking a keen interest in the goings on in that borough and I hope that a similar robust approach is taken to other similar local authorities.

Previously on here I’ve compared the situation in Tower Hamlets to letting the Irish Republican Army run a mainland borough during the days of the Troubles.  I still stand by the analogy as things are truly that bad in Tower Hamlets
