Leftist London Mayor Sadiq Khan has accused U.S. President Donald Trump of being racist and “Islamophobic” after accusations that the British capital is embracing Sharia law.
President Trump used the global platform of the General Assembly meeting of the United Nations in New York on Tuesday to denounce the failures of globalist politics in Europe, notably the green agenda and mass migration, which he argued are destroying Western nations.
The president took specific aim at the United Kingdom’s increasingly multicultural capital of London and his long-term foe, Mayor Sadiq Khan.
“I look at London, where you have a terrible mayor, terrible, terrible mayor. And it’s been so changed, so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia law, but you’re in a different country. You can’t do that,” Trump remarked.
The comments sparked outrage among left-wing Labour MPs, who rushed to Khan’s defence, and even suggested that the U.S. ambassador should be called to Downing Street. Defenders also pointed to the Muslim mayor’s willingness to march in LGBTQ+ Pride parades as evidence that London is not shifting toward Sharia under his rule.
For his part, Khan told Sky News on Wednesday morning: “I think President Trump has shown he is racist, he is sexist, he is misogynistic, and he is Islamophobic.”
However, Labour’s claims that President Trump was spreading misinformation — which were repeated uncritically in the British legacy media — are undermined by the fact that last week, the Labour government admitted the increasing prevalence of private Sharia courts across England and said that they stood as an example of British values.
The religion itself calls for eliminating all other religions and, if not converted, the followers of those religions.. Shifting to Sharia law, even in limited specific population pockets, is a step toward Muslim dominance. Don’t be fooled. Enforce assimilation.
