Warmest wishes to Muslims who are marking the end of Ramadan across the UK and around the world. May your Eid‑al‑Fitr be joyful and full of peace. Eid Mubarak.

@DrDariyaMKhan @BasilTheGreat There are more white people.
More is bigger than less.
Hope that helps.

@BasilTheGreat Social housing - the largest single group in council and housing association homes is white British households, often in similar low-income or large-family situations. Do explain?

Amazing self own from Naz Shah
She claims Muslims contribute £70 Billion to the UK economy each year
The UK economy is approx. £2.56 Trillion per year
That's just 2.7%, yet Muslims make up 7% of the population
Proving they are in fact a drain on our society
Naz Shah MP@NazShahBfd
Dear British Muslims, Tomorrow is Eid. Research shows Ramadan spending boosts the economy by £1.3bn, on top of an annual contribution of £70bn. I'm sure you want to celebrate - but spend too much, grow the economy a little too fast, and it might be seen as "dominating" 😳😬

@Hamza_a96 You missed the bit about being a Russian RT propagandist fo Tehran and Gaza.

Israel targets a British journalist in Lebanon.
The BBC: “Missile lands next to presenter”
Pathetic even by its own incredibly low standards.

Farage channeling Oswald Mosley to stir up hatred against minorities. There have been celebrations of Christmas, Chanukah & Diwali in Trafalgar Square. Now its the turn of Britain’s Muslims to celebrate their festival- only to face pure Islamophobic hate speech. Shameful.
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.

@ThatTimWalker Do you regard these words as hate speech when talking about a 95% white country?
Or are they just a critique?
English
It suits the agenda of some very wealthy people to demonise Muslims right now, but it’s wrong, it’s grotesquely unfair and Timothy should be prosecuted for hate speech.
Humza Yousaf@HumzaYousaf
We all know why Nick Timothy MP singles out Muslims celebrating Ramadan in Trafalgar Sq. Not because praying is domination, but because he wants to blow a rabid anti-Muslim dog whistle for political gain. He should be nowhere near politics, let alone the shadow front bench.

@DeborahMeaden Having read many of your posts, you should perhaps invest in that spreadsheet.
English
The trouble with telling fibs is you need a massive spreadsheet to keep track of all the angles they affect… I have always found it easier to just stick with the truth… actually not always… since I was around 5 or 6.

@janrosenow Remarkable.
A country most suitable for solar electrification that consistently places 2nd in the whole of the EU for annual sunshine. With loads of arid and vast areas of flat land with nobody living there
Now apply the same thinking to the UK, or Germany, etc, etc.
English
Spain's renewables build-out has structurally decoupled its electricity prices from gas markets.
Gas now sets the price in only 15% of hours, compared to 90% in Italy.
Countries that invested early in clean power are far less exposed to fossil fuel price shocks.

@AlzeinSaed @HumzaYousaf Except it isn't an Arabic word.
It is a Spanish toponym.
It has Arabic etymology.
From around the 10th century during the Muslim conquest of Iberia lasting around 800 years.
Interestingly 'alcohol' also has Arabic etymology.
It is prohibited as haram in the Muslim world.

JUST IN:
🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱 Iran announced that if Israel and US once again attack the Iranian energy infrastructure they will destroy all the infrastructure in the middle east for good
“We warn the enemy that you made a major mistake by attacking the energy infrastructure of Iran.
Iran had no intention of expanding the scope of the war to oil facilities and did not want to harm the economies of friendly & neighboring countries.
However, after US/Israel’s aggression on Iran’s energy sector, Iran has effectively entered a new phase of the war, and struck energy facilities linked to the United States and American shareholders.
The responses are underway and is not over yet. If terrorism against Iran is repeated again, the next attacks on your energy infrastructures and that of your allies will not stop until their complete destruction.”

@abierkhatib @M_Simonyan @selfstyledsiren You mean Russian media acting as Iran and Hezbollah propagandists.

@M_Simonyan @selfstyledsiren After killing more than 200 Palestinian journalists and others in Lebanon, Israel is now targeting the Western media…ah!!! we told they won’t stop in Palestine..

Our correspondent Steve Sweeney has been wounded by an Israeli strike in Lebanon.
He says an IDF plane fired upon the car carrying Steve and his cameraman, as they were crossing a bridge in the south of the country.
Both men are conscious in hospital, doctors are diagnosing extent of shrapnel damage.
War journalists are not legitimate targets.
We pray for them.

This Labour MP wants me investigated and silenced.
He makes my case for me.
Labour’s rebranded “Islamophobia” definition is designed to censor us.
So Mr Khan, here’s my reply:
Get lost.
Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy
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.
English
@MatthewStadlen @MissLauraMarcus You are absurd.
This is not simply about Trafalgar Square.
This happens in towns and cities all over the country.
And at times of no religious significance.
No religion should be allowed to take over public spaces at will and stop people going about their lives in peace.
English
@MissLauraMarcus Is this satire? It’s Timothy who is arguing for the cancelling of Muslims freely expressing their religion.
English
I’m so glad Nick Timothy is refusing to appease the bully boys in Labour. He speaks for many people.
And even if you profoundly disagree with him, which is perfectly fine, he’s entitled to express his opinion.
THAT is the real British value. Freedom of speech.
Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy
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.
English
@carolecadwalla I guess 'Diversity is our Strength' is also such a tell.
A comfort blanket for the suidically empathic who choose to ignore the evidence of their own eyes and ears.
English
‘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

@JoshBabarinde Islam is not a race.
It is a religious ideology.
Anybody is free to criticise it and its practices.
But unlike other religious ideologies, there are adherents of Islam who will bring extreme violence or death upon those that do.
English
Too many are too polite to say this.
But you sound like a racist prick.
Praised by Tommy Robinson, too.
You must be so proud.

Nearly half of Israel’s population lives in Tel Aviv. If Iran makes that city dysfunctional, Israel will collapse

@carla_denyer @MothinAli He did celebrate the Oct 7th Hamas slaughter, rape and kidnapping of Jews whilst the attack was ongoing.
There is that.
English
Solidarity with our deputy leader @MothinAli, who’s calling out the appalling Islamophobic abuse he’s faced from the right. Many politicians are complicit in whipping up this climate of hatred.
