Things are getting worse for conservatives and Christians in the UK

In the past, I’ve written about how the UK is a dangerous secular left fascist country that suppresses the basic human rights of its citizens. In the UK, free speech that disagrees with government policies is illegal. You can’t defend yourself from the criminals that the government imports from third-world countries. And they have two-tier policing – one justice system for allies, and one for enemies.

So, here is how I formed my opinion of the UK. According to Douglas Murray’s “The Strange Death of Europe”, the UK let in unskilled immigrants from Middle Eastern countries. Some of those went on to run child sex-trafficking rings. This has happened in many cities in the UK. And when the parents of the sex-trafficked girls complained to the police, the police refused to do anything, because they said that it’s “racist” to investigate those crimes. This is secular left woke police in action. And then if UK taxpayers say something about the failures of the taxpayer-funded politicians and police to protect their kids, then the police will charge them with hate crimes and hate speech. That’s what’s going on in the UK right now, and has been for some time.

So, let’s see some news stories to learn how things are going.

Here’s the UK Daily Mail, explaining what you have to do in order to be flagged by the UK government as a threat to their policies.

It says:

Record numbers of over-60s are being referred to the Government’s troubled anti-terrorism scheme, the Daily Mail can reveal today. Home Office figures show 127 adults in their 60s or beyond were put on Prevent’s radar in 2023/24 – the most since records began in 2016. Of them, 43 had sparked alarm for expressing ‘extreme right wing’ views.

“Extreme right wing” views are basically things like disagreeing with the child sex-trafficking rings. If you disagree with child sex-trafficking, then the UK government thinks that you are “extreme right wing” and a potential terrorist.

I’m not kidding:

Last month, it was revealed how Prevent training documents listed sharing the view that Western culture was ‘under threat from mass migration and a lack of integration’ was a ‘terrorist ideology’.

Are you wondering how they determine who is a potential terrorist? Well, if you watch certain comedy shows like “Yes, Minister” and “The Thick of It”, then you might be a terrorist. Or if you like old war movies. Or if you own any Shakespeare plays.

Look:

Even the 1955 epic war film The Dam Busters and The Complete Works Of William Shakespeare were flagged as possible red flags of extremism by Prevent’s Research Information and Communications Unit.

Just FYI, I am probably on their list. I just recently read a book about the Dam Busters mission (“Operation Chastise”) called “Enemy Coast Ahead (Uncensored)” by the lead pilot of that mission, Guy Gibson. And I even want to buy a boardgame version of it, if GMT ever gets around to printing it with a mounted map board.

And of course I own two Complete Shakespeares – The Illiustrated Globe edition from my high school days, and an audio book version. Not only that, but I was recently bugging Grok to tell me the best classical commentaries on Shakespeare, because that’s what I want to read when I’m retired (at 50, not 60). I never wanted to be a software engineer – I wanted to teach people the wisdom that you can get out of the British classics and Shakespeare.

And the UK goverment is finding a lot of people who are potential terrorists:

Across all age groups, more than 1,300 people were referred to Prevent last year for ‘extreme right wing’ behaviour, including 27 kids under the age of ten.

But Islam is no big deal:

Over the same period, the overall number of referrals under the Islamist umbrella has plunged by 75 per cent, from 3,706 to 913 – or 13 per cent of the total.

Now, you might think that a failed nation like the UK would be more concerned about their failing healthcare system. Or their violent crime epidemic. Or their third-world economy. Or their diminished role in keeping peace in the world. Or their criminalization of free speech. Or… their child sex-trafficking rings. But no.

Now, let’s look at a different article, one that shows what happens to Christians who try to speak about what the Bible says in the UK.

Here is a recent article from the UK Telegraph:

A school chaplain who was sacked after telling children they were free to question LGBT policies has told how he is still living in “shame and spiritual exile” six years later.

The Rev Bernard Randall, 52, lost his job at Trent College in Derbyshire and was referred to the Government’s Prevent counter-terrorism programme after delivering a sermon to pupils.

During the 2019 sermon, Dr Randall discussed identity politics and said pupils did not have to agree with LGBT teaching.

This obviously affected his finances:

Dr Randall, who is married and has a daughter, said: “I got part-time work with an adult education provider. So we’re OK, but we’ve definitely had to tighten our belts.”

Let me quickly say that many narcissistic people these days are asking “why don’t men lead?” and “why don’t men protect?” and “why don’t men provide?”. And the answer is because it has become costly – finances and freedom – to do so. People find male leadership offensive, and men lose their jobs for leading.

The article also notes that his punishment is ongoing, because of the first female Bishop in the Church of England:

Despite being cleared of wrongdoing over the 2019 sermon, Dr Randall was barred from preaching after a decision by the Rt Rev Libby Lane, the Bishop of Derby, over concerns that he could pose a risk of harm to children.

It’s a common view among feminists that men’s moral and spiritual leadership is “harmful to children”, because feminists interpret their own sad feelings about demonstrated male competence at decision-making as evidence that demonstrated male competence at decision-making will be harmful to children. Single mothers are doing so well raising kids, they think.
