Suella Braverman has suggested that the UK could become “the first Islamist nation with nuclear weapons”.
The former home secretary said Britain could “fall into the hands of Muslim fundamentalism” and become like Iran.
She made the incendiary comments in a speech to the right-wing Heritage Foundation think-tank in Washington.
Braverman said: “Vice-president JD Vance said at the National Conservatism conference, at which I also spoke in the summer, that the UK was going to be the first Islamist nation with nuclear weapons. I don’t think he was joking.
“Is it an impossibility that 20 years from now it will be the UK, not China or Russia, that will emerge as the greatest strategic threat to the USA?
“Born out of a broken relationship and weak leadership. What happens if the UK falls into the hands of Muslim fundamentalism, our legal system gets substituted for Sharia Law and our nuclear capabilities vest in a regime not too dissimilar to that of Iran today?
“Regardless of whether one thinks that is a realistic outcome, which I do not, should we not have the courage to ask these questions?”
At least we now have evidence that it aint that white people are evil piece shit but rather anyone who has money and power.
Can we now focus on fighting this class war?
Good to hear the class war is back on, that whole race war business wasn’t working for me.
Only 6% of population is muslim.
This is just feeding a dangerously crazy rightwing meme. Stupid irresponsible woman.
She’s in fucking cuckoo land. Dumb fascist arsehole.
Unless France gets there first. /s
Also, isn’t Pakistan and Islamist country ?Yep.
Who would have thought that one of the most racist and cruel conservatives would be wrong and lying?
And she’s Goan… That’s really geographically close to Pakistan… What a dum dum.
Islamist is just an incendiary term to excite racists
Pakistan ceased to exist?
Iraq had them too according to fellow lying western politicians.
Probably won’t though, eh?
It is either that, or giant ant women from the planet arseholia.
“Regardless of whether one thinks that is a realistic outcome, which I do not, should we not have the courage to ask these questions?”
JAQing off is a form of bad-faith propaganda.
Inshallah, sister Suella!
Who the fuck is this woman?
It’s weird because she was so sensible and well-balanced when in government. Perhaps she has been replaced by pod people. We should try and rescue her - I have a few days free in April.
An idiot from the most far-right faction of the Tory party.
