London's Neighborhood of Notoriety

Larman is well placed to make it, having spent a large part of his career reporting on the grandest and grubbiest corners of the House of Windsor, whose headquarters is just down the road—there is no vault of sordid gossip Larman can't crank open. The Secrets of Eaton Square moves house by house, rather than by decade, as it examines the illustrious street. You can see, after reading it, that this is the only honest way to write about the square. Its inhabitants, unlike other pockets of London, like the Primrose Hill set or the Sloane Rangers, were never a set or community. There was no camaraderie or physical closeness one gets with their neighbors. So Larman treats each dwelling as its own crime scene taped up for examination.

Why Western Muslims Support Terrorism More Than Middle Eastern Muslims Do

Muslims in the West use everything democracy hands them to expand the true Islam that is suppressed in the Islamic countries, and then they make sure anyone in their way pays for it.

Britain Is So Far Gone, It’s No Longer Safe For American Troops

The government is setting up illegal migrant camps for fighting-age men from some of the West’s greatest recent enemies and yet is surprised when its military bases come under internal attack from within.

'Can't wait to be arrested': John Cleese formally reported to UK's 'counter-terrorism' regime for criticizing Islam



Anti-woke comedian John Cleese has infuriated leftists and Islamists alike with his public criticism of Islam and mass migration.

Now it appears that some of those offended by the "Monty Python" co-founder's commentary want him shut up for good.

'Tell the police to contact my agent.'

Muslim activists campaigned last month to pressure Birmingham Town Call to cancel Cleese's Sept. 20 comedy show.

After the censorious radicals failed, Cleese was referred to Prevent — the government-run "counter-terrorism" program coordinated by the U.K. Home Office that is supposedly "designed to support people away from radicalisation before they commit an offence" — over his opinions about Muslims, Islam, and associated threats.

According to the Sept. 22 complaint that was first reported by 5Pillars — an English-language Muslim publication run by a Islamic propagandist who previously worked for Saudi, Qatari, and Iranian-funded media — Cleese's commentary on social media allegedly meets "several indicators used in PREVENT risk assessments for anti-Muslim hate and counter-extremism concerns" and claims that such commentary risks setting the stage for "radicalisation, communal tension, and hate incidents."

The complaint highlights multiple examples of online activity where Cleese allegedly "demonises, dehumanises, and collectively attributes violence and criminality to Muslims and Islam," including an April 27 post where he stated that halal food is "a barbaric custom and English law should not allow it" and his March 31 post stating that "to criticize a culture whose holy book advocates the killing of all the people they disagree with ... is not racist."

The complainant, whose identity has not been publicly disclosed, alleged that "these statements go beyond criticism of ideas and attach intrinsic criminality, violence, and moral depravity to a religious group."

Cleese — who has emphasized that "criticism of Islam is not racist, it's culturalist" — does not appear too cut up about the complaint or the possibility the state will take action against him.

The 86-year-old comedian tweeted on Monday, "I can't wait to be arrested."

"This is a real life sitcom!" he continued. "Please tell the police to contact my agent."

He noted in a separate post about the complaint, "The Islamic male ego becomes so bloated by its lack of restraint that it believes any criticism is blasphemy."

Suella Braverman — the former home secretary who caused a stir in 2023 by acknowledging that multiculturalism "has failed because it allowed people to come to our society and live parallel lives in it" — condemned using the counterterrorism regime to silence criticism of Islam.

"Prevent is supposed to identify potential terror threats and interrupt them through deradicalisation," wrote Braverman Tuesday. "Not to silence legitimate comment or debate about Islam. If progressed, this referral will really expose how broken our counter-terrorism system is and that a blasphemy law has been re-introduced into the U.K. by the backdoor."

Robert Spencer, the director of Jihad Watch, noted, "The government is likely to take this quite seriously, for to do otherwise might risk enraging the nation’s Muslim population, and that is what they want to avoid doing above all. What, however, did Cleese say that was not true? And that is the problem with all 'Islamophobia' initiatives: they make it a crime to tell unwelcome truths."

The Free Speech Union stressed that the government's assurances that the official definition of "Islamophobia" would not adversely impact Britons' free speech turned out to have been meaningless and that "Mr Cleese is not alone in being targeted by those who wish to silence legitimate criticism of Islam, its history, or its practices."

The union noted, for instance, that Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe was reported last month to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards — responsible for investigating alleged breaches of House of Commons Code of Conduct and Registers — over his criticism of Pakistani Muslim rape gangs and "the islamification of Britain."

In July, Afzal Khan, a Pakistan-born Labour member of parliament, also submitted a complaint about Lowe to the commission, concern-mongering about the conservative lawmaker's criticism of the state's apparent tolerance of Sharia courts.

Cleese has advocated for Lowe's Restore Britain ascendant political party, which seeks to deport millions of migrants from the isles.

"The ability to criticise, debate, challenge, and mock a religion is a fundamental right in Britain. It is not extremism. Parliament voted to abolish our blasphemy laws in 2008, eighteen years ago, but we now have one for Islam alone, said the Free Speech Union.

‘UK Democracy Has an Upper Hand’: Abdul El-Sayed Praised British Government as Superior to United States

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed praised the British democratic system as superior to America's in a 2010 op-ed, arguing that the British system is better because it allows ethnic minority groups to concentrate more electoral power.

Has Britain fallen? Nick Freitas’ documentary ‘The Immigration Crisis That Will Destroy the West’ delivers a dire warning to America



Walk through the district of Whitechapel in the East End of London today, and you’ll feel like you’re in the slums of Bangladesh — so glaring are the Bengali shop signs, the East London Mosque, the hijabs and salwar kameez, and the market stalls shouting in Sylheti.

But mass migration, true to its name, has remade far more places than Whitechapel. From Greater London, Birmingham, Leicester, Manchester, and Luton, among others, the U.K. looks and feels far removed from the recognizably British country it was just 30 years ago. That’s largely because of the sheer volume of immigrants, but also because of the specific cultures the country has embraced — Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Somali, and other cultures that do not melt into Britain so much as plant their own institutions inside it.

With the government’s open-door, anti-assimilation posture, and with the state branding any opponent of mass migration racist or xenophobic, it’s no wonder immigrant crime has flourished.

As a former Virginia Republican delegate who served during the Biden administration, BlazeTV host Nick Freitas is keenly familiar with being labeled a bigot for protesting the flooding of immigrants, many of them criminals, across America’s own borders.

“Britain and the United States have something in common,” he says. “We’ve both been subjected to a well-funded and organized effort to convince us that mass immigration is necessary economically, socially, and even morally, that to the extent that we have a culture of our own, we should be ashamed of it.”

While the jig is up — people on both sides of the Atlantic have stopped swallowing the lecture — the threat is far from over. With both nations fundamentally altered demographically, the spread of radical Islam poses perhaps the greatest threat to the West.

“The Immigration Crisis That Will Destroy the West” is a documentary from the Heritage Foundation and the Daily Signal that takes a daring look over that very precipice — peering into the future of a world where the West, with its rich history, cultures, and customs, faith-rooted principles, and economic and political traditions, is forever lost.

Nick Freitas teams up with Heritage Foundation experts Mike Gonzalez, Nile Gardiner, and Lora Ries, along with British voices Konstantin Kisin, Matt Goodwin, Winston Marshall, Connor Tomlinson, Rafe Heydel-Mankoo, and Patrick Christys, to not only give an honest assessment of how close we are to losing it all but to unpack the strategy that can pull it back from the brink.

“I absolutely believe that we can still correct this,” says Freitas. “What needs to be understood is that you don't have unlimited time to correct it, and the hour is late.”

Early access to the Heritage Foundation documentary “The Immigration Crisis That Will Destroy the West” is available now on BlazeTV+ exclusively for subscribers. Use promo code NICK for $20 off your subscription.

Hundreds of masked Britons block port where illegal boat migrants arrive: 'STOP the boats!'



A demonstration against illegal boat migrants in the United Kingdom brought a port city to a temporary halt.

Police were called on Saturday to the Port of Dover after hundreds of masked Britons blocked roads and brought traffic to a standstill.

The protesters chanted, 'I’m England till I die!'

Video from the demonstration shows mostly male protesters shouting, "Stop the boats!" and "Whose streets? Our streets!"

Commuters, port workers, and tourists reported long delays over the demonstration.

The Port of Dover is frequently a site of anti-immigration protests as it is where migrants are often brought to the U.K. when they are picked up in small boats in the English Channel.

No arrests were made in Dover.

About 200,000 illegal migrants have crossed the English Channel in small inflatable boats from France since 2021 according to CBS News. Most of the illegal migrants are adult men originally from Africa or the Middle East.

Reform leader Nigel Farage issued a statement against the masked protesters.

"Now, I’m all for the protest. Plenty to protest about. But seriously, this is not the way to go about it," he wrote at the Daily Telegraph.

"Because let’s be clear, face coverings are a menace," he added. "Whether it is a heavy-duty balaclava worn by a gang member or the dark mask of ‘Antifa’ extremists, their purpose is to bully and intimidate."

He went on to call for all face coverings to be banned in public, including religious ones.

Another protest erupted at Portsmouth on Sunday in an attempt to block the arrival of 140 migrants who were intercepted from one boat. Some of the protesters chanted, "I’m England till I die!"

None were arrested at that protest either.

Mike Tapp, Labour member of Parliament for Dover, condemned the protesters.

"I bet if you asked any one of those ‘protesters’ they wouldn’t know small boat crossing[s] are down by 40%, and we are working hard to fix the mess," he wrote on Facebook Saturday. "Go home, enjoy your weekend/get a job."

Campaign Attacking Sacha Baron Cohen's 'Ali G' Movie as 'Racist' Is Orchestrated by Anti-Israel Group Funded by Irish Media Baron Who Also Backs Israel-Bashing Publisher

The British media watchdog behind the campaign to shut down Jewish actor Sacha Baron Cohen's forthcoming Ali G movie is a virulently anti-Israel group whose history, and the identity of its financial backer, suggest it may be leveraging complaints that the film stereotypes black rappers in order to undermine Baron Cohen, a prominent supporter of Israel.
