Alex Jones: British MP Sajid Javid Is Part Of The 'Islamic Takeover'

Admittedly this is relatively time-worn news, but because Conservative MP for Bromsgrove, Sajid Javid, has thrown his hat into the ring to become the leader of the Conservative Party since Theresa May’s recent resignation, it needs to be repeated.

Javid has hilariously been compared to former American President, Barack Obama, by Forbes magazine, and like basically any Tory Member of Parliament, he has been embroiled in controversy throughout his career.

Javid has previously made absurd statements such as labelling progressive, Corbyn-supporting, activist group, Momentum, as ‘neo-fascist’ and had to backtrack on a tweet he posted claiming that Jeremy Corbyn is linked with Holocaust denial.

In comes renowned conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones and his “news” show Infowars, both of which have been banned from more platforms than I’ve had hot dinners. In a tweet, Jones claimed that Javid is evidently part of the “Islamic takeover”, which is something that only exists in the imagination of the far-right, who claim that Europe is slowly being taken over by Muslims and us poor white folks will cease to exist.

Jones’ assertion is laughable in a myriad of ways, including the sheer ridiculousness of such thought. Firstly, Javid is the current Home Secretary, meaning that he has been put in charge of the UK’s post-Brexit immigration policy and has planned to slash EU immigration by 80% in last December’s Brexit immigration White Paper - how can those evil Muslims launch their takeover if the British government are aiming to cut the number of net immigration below 10,000, Alex!?

Javid is also a harsh critic of basically any form of Palestinian liberation or resistance to the Israeli occupation and is one of the staunchest supporters of Israel in the current Conservative cabinet. Sajid has previously claimed that out of any country in the Middle East, he would consider Israel as home and has even gone as far to use his political power to stop any local UK councils from imposing boycotts of Israel.

Former Head of the Conservative Party, Sayeeda Warsi, a fellow Muslim who has spoken out about the issue of Islamophobia within the party, has accused Javid of using dog-whistle politics: “he should read what these people are saying, because no matter how much he dog-whistles, no matter how much he panders to the right of our party, sadly the right of our party believe he’s far too Muslim to be the leader of the party.”

This just shows you how utterly hateful Alex Jones and his ilk are, that all of this explanation and nuance went straight over Jones’ head and instead he decided to fear monger about the religion Javid was born into instead of delving into his actual political beliefs.

MSNBC Host Lawrence O'Donnell Explains How The Democratic Party Treats The Left

MSNBC's "The Last Word" host Lawrence O'Donnell describes his politics as a "practical European socialist", which essentially boils down to being a nordic-style social democrat, usually in favour of a mixed economy with a generous welfare state and has defended his positions on MSNBC news shows that typically frown upon stepping outside the neoliberal bubble. O'Donnell is no progressive hero in the context of american politics, sometimes scolding progressive politicians whenever they mildly criticize the Democratic Party, such as when Bernie Sanders tweeted about having to take on the Democratic establishment as well as Republicans, O'Donnell decided to concern troll Sanders by claiming that the Democratic establishment wouldn't pass Sanders' proposals if he wasn't nice to them. Over the course of the last few months an old video of O'Donnell explaining how to move the Democratic Party further left and how the party treats the p...

MSNBC News Caught Faking Poll Numbers To Elevate Biden Above Bernie Sanders

If you were to believe recent polling figures in regards to the Democratic Primaries, Joe Biden is by far and away one of the most popular political figures in America, with his 2020 poll numbers giving him a 37 and 32 point lead over Bernie Sanders in the recent past. There has however been issues with some of the polls that have been undertaken and given Joe Biden his huge lead, such as the one pictured above, which shows Bernie leading Biden by 2% (27%-25%) among non-white voters, but you wouldn’t know that if you watched the MSNBC segment regarding the poll, in which Biden magically gains three percentage points in order to go ahead of Bernie in these demographics. Here’s another poll (CNN) that was used in order to show Sanders “plummeting support” and as you can see the poll includes zero respondents of anyone under the age of fifty. The problem being that Sanders base of support is largely made up of younger voters, so to not include any in a poll on Sanders is simply di...

Why The Labour Party Lost The UK Election

Whichever way you approach the recent UK election, it would be fair to say that the Labour Party experienced a drubbing, resulting in a loss of 60 seats and handing the Conservative Party a large parliamentary majority. There has however been a fierce debate surrounding the reasons for Labour’s defeat, reasons ranging from Brexit, Jeremy Corbyn himself or supposedly racist voters. This debate has deeply spilt the two main factions of the Labour Party, between moderates and progressives. Blairites vs Corbynistas if you will. Moderates place the blame solely at the feet of Jeremy Corbyn, his supposed anti-semitism and poor electability. Progressives see this defeat as a result of a Brexit backlash with many Leave voters leaving the Labour Party while the Conservative Party had one core message: “Get Brexit Done” which seemingly resonated. It is fair to suggest that Corbyn’s popularity isn’t exactly soaring, with the mere mention of his name bringing about a whole range of different...
