about

Two groups of people fantasise that the UK could one day become an Islamic state – ruled by Sharia Law. The first are a small number of Jihadist Muslim fanatics, who are intent on violently pursuing a fundamentalist Muslim society wherever they live. The other group are the sort of right wing nut-jobs like Britain First, who see the building of a mosque as proof that one day we will all be forced to pray to Mecca. Each group is equally deluded.
The idea that a country like the UK will ever become one in which alcohol is banned, sex outside marriage is illegal, and women have to be completely covered in public is utterly ludicrous. Groups like Britain First use scare stories to stir up race hatred and xenophobia, and their use of social media to spread fictitious nonsense has enabled them to become far more influential than their numbers should warrant. It’s just too easy to forward on a posting or click “like” without checking facts or questioning the motives behind whoever initiated a story.
Without social media, these clowns would be struggling to cobble together half a dozen people to a meeting, but with a sensationalist approach to using the internet, and no scruples about making up stories to push their agenda, they’ve turned themselves into recognised public figures. They can fuck right off.

lyrics

You say we’re becoming an Islamic state –
You think that can justify all of your hate.
I’d expect more intelligence from one of my turds.
Your so-called “opinions” are too shit for words.
