Meanwhile the CPS have decided to charge an ex-cop (with 30 years experience) for making a joke

about Islam. The bad news is that he was found guilty and now has a criminal record.

The CPS has a terrible reputation, just as bad as the police who liase with them. The CPS are now commonly known as the "Corrupt Prosecution Service" and the "Clown Prosecution Service".

What are the chances of someone in Saudi Arabia being charged with making a joke about Christianity? The strategy adopted by the UK Establishment, in relation to Islam, is one of total appeasement. This is pathetic and will only make radical Muslims hate and despise us more.

This is a short clip from GB News about the ex-cop -

We have de facto blasphemy laws.

We should be free to make any jokes about any religion.

Dave Allen really ripped into Christianity. You could not do the same with Islam today.

Remember "The Life Of Brian".

John Cleese is a staunch critic of Islam. I wish he would do a "Life of Abdul". Using AI it could be done on a very small budget. Not quite as good as real life but not bad. Maybe in conjunction with the author of the Crewkerne Gazette.

I agree. People keep saying we have blasphemy laws "via the back door". No we don't,

this is in our faces. I want to try and track down exactly what this ex-cop said.

It's a shame GB News didn't share it, but they are scared of the regulator.

I'm willing to share this joke, far and wide. We need to make it to go viral.

I appreciate that everyone has their own capacity for risk. Getting a criminal record

is serious. A fall back position is to wait for the appeal, which hopefully will be won with the help of the FSU .... and then share it far and wide.

If you add the Soviet victims betrayed by the Cambridge 5, there were many many more.
