❓WHAT HAPPENED: Lord Daniel Hannan of Britain’s Conservative Party defended mass Muslim prayer in London’s iconic Trafalgar Square, calling it “inclusive.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Lord Hannan, the Conservative (Tory) Party, and Muslims in Britain.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Some people maintain that Islam is uniquely incompatible with Western values… There are nearly 4 million Muslims in the United Kingdom. If you insist on seeing them all as dangerous, then, in the absence of mass conversions, you are led by your own logic to demand ethnic cleansing.” – Lord Hannan

🎯IMPACT: Hannan’s party presided over unprecedented mass migration during its time in office from 2010 to 2024, much of it from the Islamic world. His defense of Muslims asserting their religion in public spaces is sparking debate about the impact on British culture and society of passively accepting Islamization.

Daniel Hannan, a member of the House of Lords for Britain’s Conservative (Tory) Party, has penned a bizarre defense of mass Muslim prayer in public spaces, such as London‘s iconic Trafalgar Square, describing it as “inclusive.”

Lord Hannan waded into a public debate on Islamization ignited by Member of Parliament (MP) Nick Timothy, who had previously written that “mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination,” and that the Islamic call to prayer “which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger… is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination.”

Contrasting Christianity’s official status in Britain with America’s official secularism, Hannan praises America’s religious “level playing field.” He argues that “Choosing to celebrate important events in Trafalgar Square is a British tradition,” including Islamic rituals and suggests that opposition to mass Muslim prayer equates to supporting purges, claiming: “There are nearly 4 million Muslims in the United Kingdom. If you insist on seeing them all as dangerous, then, in the absence of mass conversions, you are led by your own logic to demand ethnic cleansing.”

Hannan goes on to defend declarations of Allah’s superiority and sex-segregation at these prayers, and asserts that many Muslims “detest extremism.” He claims that those opposing mass Muslim prayer in public assists extremists, arguing, “They… vindicate the central claim that jihadi recruiters make to young Western Muslims: ‘Whatever you do, your neighbors will never accept you.'”

Hannan concludes by criticizing British Christians who oppose Islamization as “consciously mimicking American conservatives,” suggesting they wear their faith as a “tribal badge.”

Notably, Islamists account for around 39,000 out of 43,000 people on the Security Service (MI5) watch list, and around three-quarters of the agency’s counter-terrorism workload. Since 9/11 in the U.S., radical Islamic terrorists have killed over 100 people in Britain, compared to fewer than ten killed by far-right terrorists.

Too many are too polite to say this.

But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination.

The adhan – which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger – is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination.
