Following on from a post at Home of the Green Arrow, another BNP member denounces the recent Time Out fantasy about life in a Muslim-majority London. Taking inspiration from the Pim Fortuyn strategy of whipping up racism under cover of defending liberal western values against the Islamic takeover of Europe, the article notes that “one can only wonder how gays, who make up a substantial proportion of Time Out readers, feel about the prospect of a deeply homophobic Islamic London”. That would be as distinct from a gay-friendly fascist London, would it?
Meanwhile another Nazi group, the tiny British People’s Party, has characterised the Time Out piece as “a wake up call to White Londoners who still cherish their heritage and identity”.

“In recent years the term Islamophobia has been frequently invoked to silence criticism of Islam. Criticisms of any aspect of Islam are looked upon as expressions of a new form of racism. In reality, critics of Islam are questioning the values associated with the religion rather than the racial status of Muslim people. Today, promoting the concept of Islamophobia is about setting up Islam as a criticism-free zone. Recent claims about an ‘epidemic of Islamophobia’ are based on very impressionistic and subjective methodology.”
