British citizens no longer have freedom of speech under the new KGBritish “blasphemy against Islam” laws
August 14, 2024 by BareNakedIslam

A 61-year-old British man is sentenced to 18 months in prison for chanting “Who the bleep is Allah?” and telling police officers “you’re not English anymore” during an anti-Muslim immigration protest outside Downing Street.


ZeroHedge (h/t Nita) The sentence handed out to David Spring is the latest shocking example of how low the bar has now been set in terms of free speech in response to rioting that occurred after the murder of three girls in Southport last month.
Spring attended a demonstration of around 700 people in London on July 31 which turned disorderly. Police bodycam footage that was played in court showed Spring calling police officers “cunts,” making “hostile gestures” and joining in with chants of “who the bleep is Allah” and “you’re not English anymore.”

While Spring’s behavior could be described as offensive and unruly, the fact that he will spent the next year and a half behind bars for saying mean words exemplifies how the UK has slipped into extreme authoritarianism in the space of just two weeks.

A question I've now been asking for 20 years, and will ask again:
