PETE Winstanley claims the authorities are dealing with Muslim extremists (HAS, March 15). I am sure there are individual instances where extremists are apprehended – but, on balance, the Government’s policy is essentially pro-Islam.
Even the Archbishop of Canterbury has complained that the Government discriminates against Christianity and in favour of Islam. No doubt the fact that about two-thirds of Muslims vote Labour has something to do with it.
Mr Winstanley also claims the authorities prosecute Muslims who incite murder. Oh yes? The Islamic clerics who were filmed in a Dispatches programme, Undercover Mosque, inciting the murder of Jews and infidels have not been prosecuted. Not only that, the Dispatches team was hauled over the coals for having the temerity to draw attention to Muslims inciting murder.
And according to a more recent Dispatches programme, the Government has given millions of pounds to extremist Islamic groups. If it was genuinely impartial, and if it thinks that giving millions to extremist groups solves any problems, why doesn’t it give millions to the supposedly extremist BNP?
Any Martian arriving on planet Earth and looking at the UK would assume, rightly I think, that the Government’s big plan is to Islamise the UK.
