AGE OF CENSORSHIP
“I think it is quite disturbing the age of censorship in which we are entering with most communication dominated by these top-tier tech companies… and almost all of these companies have certain political biases, promoting only certain viewpoints and blocking others.”
They simply “don’t want to promote a open, free discussion,” he ominously concludes, “and there is no such thing as a neutral platform or means of discussion these days.”

POLICE in the UK are considering banning the terms ‘Islamist Terror’ as it discriminates against terrorists.
The Metropolitan Police’s chief counter-Terror cop Neil Basu addressed an online conference of cops where the idea was put forward.
Police say that the terms ‘Islamist terror’ and ‘Islamic extremism’ discriminates against Muslim people.
They has come up an alternative; ‘faith-claimed terrorism, terrorist abusing religious motivations’ and ‘adherents of Osama bin Laden’s ideology’ according to The Times of London.
Major terror attacks in England have been committed by Islamic extremists including the London bombings in 2005 as well as the Westminster, London Bridge and Manchester Arena attacks in 2017.
The National Association of Muslim Police in the UK are advocating for “a change in culture by moving away from using terms which have a direct link to Islam and Jihad”.
They said: “These do not help community relations and public confidence.”

He said , “ At least 25 extra police every day .

COUNCIL WOKE JOKE
TWO Labour councillors from Blackburn and Darwen Council played down fears over Coronavirus spikes within the local Pakistani and Bangladeshi communities – putting ethnic people in the area at risk.
Last week it was revealed that Blackburn and Darwen in Lancashire is facing a “rising tide” of COVID-19 cases due to the living conditions of Pakistani and Bangladeshi residents.
Cllrs from Blackburn and Darwen Council played the race card following warnings from public health officials over a worrying rise in Coronavirus cases in the working-class Northern towns.
The huge rise has been pinpointed to areas with terraced houses that contain too many people living there.
Often these terraced houses are designed for ONE family with a maximum of four people living in them, but Pakistani immigrants often have up to THREE or FOUR families and up to TEN people living under one small terraced roof.
The Lancashire town has now been forced to bring in extra restrictions following a huge increase in infections due to a majority of cases within the Pakistani community.

Cllr Saima Afzal who is a Labour politician for Blackburn Central said locals should not be ‘stigmatised’ by spikes in coronavirus in their communities, ignoring the failures of her own council she represents – putting her own Pakistani and Bangladeshi voters residents at risk.
Around a third of Blackburn with Darwen’s 148,000 population are from ethnic backgrounds, with a large Pakistani heritage population.
Afzal added: “It should be a concern to anybody if any community is stigmatised and we know the facts are there, we are open about those facts.”
She warned against analysing the statistics inaccurately as “they can be twisted any way you want to portray them”.
“If you are going home and you are working and you are maybe not abiding by the rules as rigidly as you should be, and you go home and you are caring for a family member, or there are three or four families living under one household, because of economic reasons, or financial issues, and the Asian community do do that – they pool their resources together to help the whole family survive.”
“If then they are going home, they are passing it on to more than one person.”
“So inevitably, if you take that as a factor as well, and there’s a cocktail of other factors as well, you are going to see spikes in particular communities.”
“And there’s the inequalities that have been around for years.”
“As a group of councillors we are all very concerned.
“If you’ve got underlying health issues we still need to adhere to the rules, regardless of what background you are from, because I don’t want people to be complacent, ‘It’s just a south Asian problem, or a minority ethnic problem, or a particular age’.”
Figures from the last census show 25% of the borough’s Bangladeshi households have too few rooms, compared with 5% of white households.
Another local Labour Councillor Shaukat Hussain said he was not worried about data showing virus cases increasing in Asian communities, despite some reports suggesting a fear of blaming or stigmatising one ethnic group.
He said: “It’s not a concern to me, the facts are there.
“It’s a concern when people start twisting that, like I said – we are more prone to picking up, BAME heritage background people are more prone to picking up the infection than the indigenous – but that doesn’t mean they are the ones spreading it, which some papers are trying to twist.”

“It is vitally important we all play our part in avoiding mass gatherings to help protect ourselves, family and friends.”
Commander Adelekan also said the fear illegal raves creates for communities is “totally unacceptable”, as the Met released 999 calls from residents reporting mass gatherings.
One man can be heard saying: “Hi, there’s an illegal rave outside. There’s hundreds of them and they’re very noisy, very crowdy and there’s more coming.”
Another man says partygoers have “blockaded the road”, while a woman complains they are “shouting, making too much noise, bottles everywhere”.
One caller says: “It’s just scary, you just don’t know what to do.”
Police across the country have faced a surge in illegal raves since the Covid-19 lockdown restrictions were relaxed.
Avon and Somerset Police said they were powerless to stop a 3,000-strong illegal event at the former RAF Charmy Down airfield near Bath last weekend, while Greater Manchester Police said it had dismantled a planned illegal rave on Saturday.
