Free speech was a danger.
And that's where we are in Europe with the Digital Services Act.
That's where we are with the online safety bill.
And all that mixes in with the establishment wanting to control, but also a fear of Islam.
And we have the Islamophobia movement.
working group, the all party parliamentary group of British Muslims, and they are pushing this Islamophobia legal definition that won't be legal.
It will not be enshrined in law, but is very highly recommended.
Meaning if you do not abide by that, you lose your tax exempt status and you will be questioned.
Your social media profile will be watched much more closely.
You will be targeted, but hey,
You don't have to abide by that.
So it is bringing a law in through the back door of constraint and coercion and control.
So we have that in the UK.
It's been discussed and debated a lot.
And sadly, the Labour Party, our far-left Labour Party in the UK, will push that Islamophobia definition through.
They have the majority in government.
But finally, even politically, and I know Ben talked a lot about what is happening in Europe politically and the bright hope.
In the UK, even reform, even Nigel Farage still veers away from engaging with Islam.
And that goes to the psyche in Britain.
There is a fear of engaging with Islam.
