This time, the EDL Leicester Division has shared an image depicting the Buckingham Palace as a mosque, with caps-lock text saying it’s a “question of time” that this will happen.
Supporters were quick to ‘Like’ and ‘Share’ the picture, but what is also surprising is how one EDL supporter thinks people should ‘arm themselves’ (shown above).
Why the picture is blatant fear-mongering
Why would anyone even let such an iconic building as the Buckingham Palace be transformed into a mosque in the first place? It’s a stupid thought.
Also, people fail to recognise that it is extremely difficult to implement Sharia Law in the UK in the first place. People who promote this myth (like the EDL) have a limited understanding of how British laws are produced and ratified.
This includes continuous reviews of laws and the final process of being made an Act of Parliament by the Queen giving it her Royal Assent (which is highly unlikely). Click here for more information.
Far-right Dutch Freedom Party joins in
Fans of the far-right Islamophobic Dutch Freedom Party (DFP) were also quick to share the picture. This comes as no surprise, seeing as how the party has been hell-bent on demonising the Islamic faith and Muslims ever since it began. In its programme, it calls for the banning of the Quran, taxes on people who wear the Islamic headscarf and the closing of Islamic schools.
Now we know why it’s called the ‘Dutch Freedom Party’.
