Judeo-Christian values...'over centuries'? You might want to think that one through, Nigel. Wasn't there a time when Christian values helped to persecute Jews and expel them?
Nigel Farage MP@Nigel_Farage
What we witnessed in London at the historic Trafalgar Square, in a country built on Judeo-Christian values, was a group of people attempting dominance over our capital city and our culture. We are not going to surrender everything that was built over centuries and defended at great cost in two world wars for us to be a free, independent nation. The British people will not put up with this any longer — simple as.

Imagine seeing British people at prayer and thinking “this is a great chance to stoke fear, hatred and division”. People who do that should have no place in British politics.
Freedom to worship is a fundamental British value – one the Conservative Party used to believe in.

Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.

@implausibleblog @RamadanTent when did praying becoming an issue? Popes have come and filled stadia

Kemi Badenoch disaster of an interview criticising the Ramadan Tent Project's Iftar at Trafalgar Square is something to behold 😅
@RamadanTent did it without objection under 4 Conservative PMs:
2015 under David Cameron
2019 under Theresa May
2022 under Boris Johnson
2024 under Rishi Sunak
Gary Gibbon, "What is your objection to the Muslim prayer that happened in Trafalgar square"
Kemi Badenoch, "As a woman from an ethnic minority background, I do not like to see women shoved to the side, segregated, in an event that is not welcoming to others"
"Trafalgar square is a public space which we use for inclusive events"
Gary Gibbon, "But the event was welcoming. It was inclusive. It was inviting other people to come and see what the moment was like"
*Badenoch's eye lashes flash faster than a butterfly chasing nectar*
Kemi Badenoch, "A segregated event like that, I do not think the Mayor should be party political"
Gary Gibbon, "So gender segregation is your objection?"
Kemi Badenoch, "Yes, but more than that"
Gary Gibbon, "But lots of religions have gender segregation"
Kemi Badenoch, "Not in public spaces. This is not about freedom of religion"
Gary Gibbon, "The Ramadan Tent project organised events at the Victoria & Albert museum, in front of the Royal Albert Hall, under Conservative administrations"
"They've been developing this public way of showing their faith and inviting people to come and observe it"
Kemi Badenoch, "Without knowing the details of those events, I'm not making a comment"
"I'm taking a specific event about that type of mass prayer, segregating women in the middle of Trafalgar square"
"We believe in religious freedom, that doesn't mean any religious practice in every single religion"
"Sometimes the authorities need to set guard rails and say actually this is too much"

@NJ_Timothy So if a bunch of catholics said the Rosary it is against your way of life?

I will not be silenced.
Labour are only demonstrating that they cannot see right from wrong.
They will not stand up for our way of life.
But we will.

‘Judeo-Christian values’ is such a tell. Who, in Britain, has ever casually dropped ‘Judeo-Christian values’ into any conversation *ever*?
This is Farage channeling Bannon. It’s MAGA. Dressing it up as English nationalism is pure pantomime. They’ll have Mother Goose next

@HerdImmunity12 What values? There are British born Hindus, Muslims etc.. this is a country full of white non practising Christians who would not know the inside of a church

Breaking News🇬🇧🏴: "The Mass public chanting of Islamic slogans in Trafalgar Square, was a wilful attempt to overtake and dominate our British way of life, (funded by the UK taxpayer £44m). We will as a Reform Party stand up for the Judah/Christian values on which this country was built".
Reform Leader @Nigel_Farage explodes at the London Mayor led Iftar within the sacred ground of Trafalgar Square, as the bully boy tactics of muslim UK leadership in an overt overthrow of British culture, history and religion.

@Nigel_Farage The Square is an open and inclusive space… all types use it and that is just one of them

Just one generation from now:
The white British in the UK will go from over 70% to 33%
The foreign-born & their children from 19% to over 60%
The share of Muslims from 1 in 17 to 1 in 4

The Archbishop of Canterbury has said that legalising DIY abortions up to the point of birth is “legally, morally, and practically complex”.
It isn’t ‘complex’.
It’s WRONG.
Killing a 39 week old baby is morally indefensible. No Christian should find that hard to say.
