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.














Watch the contrast.


@Niall__T @niamh_journo I insult your argument, as it's dumb. As an atheist you think you can simultaneously defend it as a strictly religious holiday, yet I doubt you'd support promoting it as Christian. You think you should include other nations practices, as long as they aren't British. Just a mess.









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.











@Niall__T @niamh_journo My point related directly to Montserrat, a British territory. I'm nowhere saying we shouldn't include other nationalities (or ethnicities) in our parades, we always have, but your argument suggests because Montserrat shares a saint, we should celebrate Britishness in the parade.

"Ireland didn't colonise anybody, but they're on track to be minority Irish by 2070. And I don’t like that." Ireland fought for centuries for its land and independence from the British, only to throw it away in a few decades for “diversity”.
