-British Flag banned from airport personnel's uniforms

Take a glance at England for our future of self-destructing political correctness:

ARMED cops patrolling Heathrow Airport have been banned from wearing tiny Union Jack badges in support of British troops

Top brass claimed the tie-pin badges - which cost £1 with proceeds going to the Help for Heroes charity - were OFFENSIVE.

But one officer asked: "How can the Union Jack be offensive?

"This ruling is even more absurd coming this weekend on the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

"We must be the only country ashamed to display our national flag."

"Nobody has put out orders to remove rainbow symbols that gay and lesbian officers wear. Why discriminate against us?"

-British citizen beheaded by terrorists, Gordon Brown condemns the action

edwin dyer al qaeda britain gordon brown terrorism islam

A British citizen was beheaded by Al-Qaeda in Mali. Apparently he had been kidnapped since January. This whole story is infuriating. The British government attempted to NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS in order to get this citizen back. Gone are the days when great countries like America and England would send troops discretely in to rescue hostages. If your spouse was taken hostage what would you want the government to do?

From Fox News:

Edwin Dyer was one of four European tourists kidnapped on Jan. 22 as they returned from a music festival. Messages posted on Islamic Web sites indicated that they were being held by Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), a 300-strong Islamist terror group that operates in the desert borderlands of Mali, Algeria, Niger and Mauritania. Despite intense behind-the-scenes negotiations by British and local officials in Mali, the hostage-takers claimed that they had carried out their threat to kill Dyer. Gordon Brown said there was "strong reason" to believe that this was true. "I utterly condemn this appalling and barbaric act of terrorism," the Prime Minister said. "My thoughts are with Edwin Dyer’s family. I offer them the condolences of the whole country."


Gordon Brown's reaction is even more mind-blowing. He "condemns" this act? No kidding! Maybe you should give more thought to keeping your citizens safe, which should be the role of the government. Hey Gordon, maybe if you were spending less money making Britain a welfare state and appeasing Islam, you would have the money and the clout for a rescue operation.

-Radical Muslim Free in Britain

Another Jihadist is out on to the streets, thanks again to (formerly Great) Britain. Muslim "Preacher" Abu Izzadeen, a second generation Jamaican, managed to get a year cut off his four and a half year sentence and is now free. Douglas Murray, the directer of the Centre for Social Cohesion, which sounds like a bad joke in itself, said Izzadeen and his organization were a danger to society.

Douglas Murray, director of the Centre for Social Cohesion, said the men were a danger to society.

"Abu Izzadeen and his organisation publicly call for attacks against those whom they see as enemies of Islam," he said.

"Their ideology not only glorifies violent jihad but teaches their followers that taking part in suicide bombings is their duty as Muslims."

"The early release of a hate preacher like Abu Izzadeen demonstrates that the British courts are still far away from understanding the very clear and present danger that this country is facing from militant Islamists."


Apparently Izzadeen is less dangerous than talk show host Michael Savage, so at least the Brits have that one handled.

Izzadeen's supporters on Islamic message boards are pleased:

"This is absolutely wonderful news. May Allah reward you for sharing this with us."

"'The man is a modern day Muslim hero! Just look at the wisdom and generosity of Allah - he really does relieve those who stand up and are firm in his cause."

Lovely. Let's take a look at Izzadeen in action shall we?

-Michael Savage Banned in Britain

Right-wing radio talk show host Michael Savage is on a blacklist that has been announced in Britain. This blacklist is a list of people who are not allowed in Britain. Does this mean if Savage was living in Britain they would kick him out? Apparently. Britain no longer has free speech, arguably the most pivotal aspect of a democracy.


"I think it's important that people understand the sorts of values and sorts of standards that we have here, the fact that it's a privilege to come and the sort of things that mean you won't be welcome in this country," Said Britain's Home Secretary Jacqui Smith.

"Coming to this country is a privilege. If you can't live by the rules that we live by, the standards and the values that we live by, we should exclude you from this country and, what's more, now we will make public those people that we have excluded."

"We are telling people who they are and why it is we don't want them in this country,"

The list also includes Hamas leader Yunis Al-Astal, former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard Stephen Donald Black, neo-Nazi Erich Gliebe and radical pastor American pastor Fred Phelps, known for his virulent anti-gay protests at funerals. Phelps' daughter Shirley Phelps-Roper also is on the list.

"It's a privilege to come to this country. There are certain behaviors that mean you forfeit that privilege."


Britain is trying to lump Michael Savage in with Hamas, the KKK, and neo-Nazis? Maybe the radical Muslim population has already infiltrated their government. Britain's big brother is growing.

-Big Brother in Britain




This is pretty scary. Luckily it is only happening in Britain, for now.


From UK's The Independent:


The mobile calls, emails and website visits of every person in Britain will be stored for a year under sweeping new powers which come into force on Monday. Privacy campaigners warned last night that the information would be used by the Government to create a giant "Big Brother" super-database containing a map of everyone's private life.


The new powers will, for the first time, place a legal duty on internet companies to store private information, including email traffic and website browsing histories.


Although the new retention powers will not permit the storage of the content of emails or phone calls it will show details such as IP addresses, date, time and user telephone numbers. Under the terms of the EU directive, the Home Office has written to leading internet service providers and phone companies offering to compensate them for the costs incurred in retaining the data for a year.


A spokesman for the Internet Service Providers Association confirmed that the leading ISPs had received written orders from the Home Office setting out their obligations under the new rules.
Phil Booth of the civil rights campaign group, NOID, said: "Inch by inch, the Government's plans to map and monitor everyone's communications are creeping into place. Today it's retention of data, soon it'll be a giant database to suck it all up. And unless we speak out and stop this, what used to be private – details of your relationships and personal interests – will end up in the ever-widening control of the stalker state."


Last week the The Independent reported that millions of Britons who use social networking sites such as Facebook could soon have their every move monitored by the Government and saved on a "Big Brother" database.



There really is an extremely fine line between breaching privacy and security that we very often underestimate the complexity and fragility of. This act might just cross that line.
