The Inside Story of the Hijacking of the British Parliament and the Manipulation of Muslim Public Opinion


(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Suzan Quitaz - A British-based pressure group called The Muslim Vote (TMV), launched in December 2023, claimed to represent the interests of Britain's four million Muslims and urged them to vote for a list of candidates whose credentials they had already "vetted." Nigel Farage, a British MP and the leader of Reform UK, accused TMV of engaging in "sectarian voting" in an attempt to take over councils and win seats in the British Parliament by supporting and endorsing candidates standing on a "Gaza agenda." Farage said, "More than 40 council seats went to candidates standing on the Gaza platform. Of course, they all won thanks to standing in Muslim-majority constituencies. If that is not a sectarian vote, then what is?" Today, in modern Britain, there are 22 MPs, including 14 Labour backbenchers, who have put their name to the pro-Gaza agenda. The former Labour Shadow Minister, Jon Ashworth, who held his Leicester South seat since 2011, was defeated due to a vigorous smear campaign against him, branding him as being "pro-genocide," with thousands of posters posted on walls and delivered to houses in his constituency. Who is bankrolling the 1,000s of pro-Hamas rallies that have taken place across Britain since Hamas's Oct. 7 massacre? Who is financing printing tens of thousands of posters defaming British MPs? Who is funding the circulation of anti-Israel and also antisemitic literature and stickers posted on underground stations and business premises? The writer is a Kurdish-Iraqi journalist.
