A major independent research think-tank called the Henry Jackson Society blew apart the fake narrative of the Islamists and the lefty media, including the BBC and the Guardian, in their report titled, ‘Hindu-Muslim civil unrest in Leicester’, written by Charlotte Littlewood on 3rd November 2022.
The Henry Jackson Society is considered an elite research organisation and is considered as the ‘Centre on Radicalisation and Terrorism’. It conducts research into some of the most controversial areas of public and political life, without fear or favour. A bit like me, but significantly more powerful, very well resourced and with a greater reach.
It was therefore huge that their 39-page report showed the level and extent of the Islamist onslaught against Hindus in Leicester, as well as what seemingly looked like an orchestrated campaign on social media (and through certain national media) to incite hate and violence against Hindus.
The report states, ‘One of the instigators of the anti-Hindutva Leicester march is a man expressing praise for a wanted terrorist and who claims to speak with the crime syndicate the D company. The social media influencers who peddled narratives of Hindutva extremism include a convicted terrorist offender and a man who has offered prayers to the Taliban’.
It goes on to say, ‘There is a real concern that Majid Freeman is regularly being provided a platform to express his views regarding the presence of Hindutva extremism in the UK and posing as a ‘community leader’, meeting with the City of Leicester’s mayor and discussing the future of the upcoming independent review’.
In Kapil’s Khichadi I covered many of these issues. We exposed the Islamists and their toolkit of anti-Hindu hatred. Let us be clear, this was their expression of anti-Hinduism and Hinduphobia. They started the madness, they attacked Hindus and the Mandirs, they issued fake narrative on social media to incite hatred and violence, and they gathered in numbers to repeat the same right across the country.
There have now been enough discussions, enough rhetoric from politicians and so-called community leaders, and enough platitudes to whitewash the crimes of the Islamists. Enough is enough.
Let me repeat in crystal clear terms what we should expect and demand:
a. There should be a full investigation into the police and their conduct at the start of the disturbances. Lest we forget, the police made a statement that implied that Hindus might be to blame. This was later withdrawn, but by that stage the damage has been done.
b. There should be an investigation into the whole affair by an independent entity, not connected to Leicester or any of its public bodies. In my view, it should be led by a Home Office appointee with all the necessary powers.
c. There should be an investigation into the conduct of the Mayor of Leicester, Sir Peter Soulsby. He has exhibited what can only be described as gross misconduct and negligence whilst in office, and in breaking the Nolan principles of public life.
d. Sir Keir Starmer should demand the resignation of Sir Peter Soulsby immediately. His inaction on a Labour mayor who has shown such poor judgement whilst in office will be telling of his own leadership.
Failure to take Leicester seriously today will give a green light to the Islamists. Today they test the waters, the resolve of local communities to defend themselves, the willingness of local authorities to protect the victims of their crimes, and the determination of the police and CPS to investigate, arrest and prosecute Islamists. If we as a nation fail to take our stand today, then tomorrow these very same rogue elements will attack not just Hindus, but they will come for Jains, Buddhists, Sikhs and Jews.
Leicester is now the defining point for the UK. Why is it that many Labour authorities appears to have an issue with extremism? Be it the grooming gangs, the antisemitic hooligans or the anti-Hindu extremists. Secretary of State, I hope we are all on the same page.
