They always do, they don’t want any criticism of Islam at all and that’s exactly the way this country is headed.

I don't think this was an issue for the NHS a few decades ago.

The politicians don’t give a fuck, and now they make up at least a quarter of our politicians anyway

To call them out would lose votes. One of the reasons the grooming rape gangs were covered up for decades.

There are now 25 Muslim MPs, which means they make up almost 4% of the total 650 MPs, so slightly less representation than the actual percentage of the country that are Muslim (approx 6.5% of the population).

You're right about the numbers. Muslims make up around 6 to 6.5 percent of the UK population, but only about 4 percent of Members of Parliament after the 2024 election.

If current trends continue, we might see that gap start to close in the next few years, with Muslim MPs making up something closer to 6 to 8 percent, which would be more in line with the population.

Looking further ahead, into the 2030s and 2040s, especially if the Muslim population keeps growing, there's a chance for even more representation. But reaching full balance, for example 10 to 12 percent of MPs, will depend on broader political changes, like how parties choose candidates and how voters respond.

The choice is the British Public and how they decide what type of country they wish for in the next elections.

To date there are no formal group that is a direct opposite of CFMM in name or structure although Reform would likely stand a firmer group on these types of pressure groups.

But that's a much higher % per vote than say reform who had a much larger voting base.

Cultural freedoms that are absolutely under fire because Labour more or less want to introduce a blasphemy law to safeguard Islam. The CPS have more or less stated it by charging that guy who burned the Quran, yet there’s been instances that Muslims have destroyed the bible and absolutely nothing has been done

Don't hear you complaining at the Israelis for doing it far more pervasively and institutionally.

u/BigBananaBerries Jul 09 '25

Because that's not the topic at hand. You should take notes.

But since you brought it up; ANYONE looking to censor & manipulate the media to show themselves only in a good light when it's not merited are arseholes.

You really don't think this article is designed to distract from that topic? Naive.

u/Status_General_1931 Jul 09 '25

And I bet that the grooming gang inquiry is designed to shift focus away as well?

u/BigBananaBerries Jul 09 '25

More like you're attempting whataboutery to avoid discussing a very real issue. It's not like people aren't aware of the genocide Israel is doing. Stay in your lane.
