Today is my day to bash Great Britain--or, more precisely, the corrupt political class of that once-fine country.
As I have written earlier, Elon Musk has ignited a firestorm in the wake of the UK Labour Party denying a local council's request for an inquiry into the Pakistani rape gang scandal that has been simmering for over a decade. Thousands of British girls were repeatedly raped by gangs of mostly Muslim men, mostly from Pakistan or descended from Pakistani immigrants, and for decades the British police hushed it up, terrorized families who objected to the coverup, accused the early teenage girls of asking for it, and even facilitated the commission of the crimes.
They did it in the name of "community relations," fearing that the Muslims would riot or the working-class victims would be racist.

In other words, in the name of race relations, they sacrificed young girls to Moloch.
Musk has focused much of his ire on Keir Starmer, and after days of silence Starmer has come out swinging--accusing Musk and the British citizens who are responding to his calls for action of being "far right."
Yeah ... the 'real victim' of industrial scale child rape is ... Jess Phillips ... 🤮

He has to go - he is a joke https://t.co/mAWQm6qFzr
"Far right," as you know, is a go-to phrase for all liberal politicians (which includes almost all politicians in Britain, unfortunately), and accusing your critics of being "far-right" amounts to a get-out-of-jail-free card in almost all circumstances. If you think that accusations of racism have had the power to silence people in the US, this is true times 100 in Britain and Europe as a whole.
Sir Keir Starmer is “the best recruiting sergeant for extremism”, James Cleverly has claimed.
The Prime Minister said in a speech this morning that those calling for a national inquiry on grooming gangs were seeking to “jump on a bandwagon of the far Right”.
The former Tory home secretary said that the words were “deeply insulting and counterproductive”.
Writing on X, Mr Cleverly said: “When will Starmer and Labour learn?
Accusing those who disagrees with him, or who seeks legitimate answers about repeated failures of child protection, as “‘far right’ is deeply insulting and counterproductive.
Layer on top of that the still-powerful class distinctions in the UK--the victims and the people up in arms are working-class and hence disposable in the eyes of many in the elite--and you get the result we see: even with a few high-profile prosecutions, almost all the perpetrators still walk free, and once out of jail almost none of the rapists were deported. In fact, Labour refuses to say how many have been, presumably because the number approaches zero.

Starmer, in his press conference, expressed deep concern for his Labour Party colleague Jess Philips, the Cabinet Minister who denied a request for an inquiry. He went to the next most useful phrase in the Western world to do so: "misinformation."
"Misinformation" is the modern "abracadabra"--a magic word that makes things disappear. Anybody in authority can utter it, and the Pravda Media looks away from the powerful and turns its guns on the powerless.

Starmer is right that Labour alone is not responsible for the continuing coverup; despite recent calls for a full-blown investigation by the Tories, they, too, were paralyzed by fear of being accused of racism. Their failures were as bad as Labour's have been.
This is good if you have the time:
The problem goes deeper than even Great Britain; all of Europe has been terrified of saying the obvious: you can't mix a 7th century cultural mindset (and a particularly sick one at that) with a 21st century culture and have it turn out well. It's not that all Muslims are brutes--experience shows that there are and have been plenty of civilized Muslims and Muslim societies; it's that the Muslims being imported by the boatload are not in general civilized.
What is going on in the West amounts to a suicide of a culture. The centuries-long project to eradicate racism has gone off track. The original goal was to embrace all human beings who embrace civilization, not for Western Civilization to embrace barbarity in the service of virtue signaling.
People of all hues can be civilized and respect the rights of others, just as those of us who are less well endowed with melanin can commit horrible atrocities.
It's the culture that matters; behavior determines moral worth.
Oh like that time Starmer called @realDonaldTrump a racist and said the British government should do everything to stop him?

Or when Starmer sent British Labour Party members to campaign in the US against President Trump this year?https://t.co/5R28WgZIj0 https://t.co/S3cjV27Woi
The obsession with race is an elite phenomenon these days. Elon Musk's crime is speaking the truth aloud and pointing out how little the British elite care for those whom they claim to represent.
The European elite is furious at Musk for inserting himself in their politics, which is rich beyond belief. The Labour Party sent 100 staffers to help campaign for Kamala Harris, and nearly every European leader struck out at Trump when he was campaigning. Turnabout is fair play.
Whether you agree with Musk 100% or not, it is only now that the rape gang issue has gained so much traction. Both Labour and the Tories are debating this vigorously.
I call that a win for Britons.
