21 spurious complaints against me here in Essex by political opponents already. Will I get to 50 by year end? 😉

Yes, individual @reformparty_uk Councillors are being harassed and besmirched by lawfare too, not just Nigel Farage and Richard Tice.

It’s time that the weaponised local government Standards process was abolished.

Extracts from a further Spectator article (Aug 15) by Andrew Gilligan:

An academic project hosted by Cambridge University platforms creationism, the belief that the world was created by God in seven days. It promotes an academic paper demanding that schoolchildren be taught to “actively resist” the science of evolution.

At Charles Darwin’s old university, where a college is named after him, Darwin’s discovery is now described by one Cambridge researcher as an example of “potential challenges posed by Eurocentric monoculture.”

It is the latest sign of fundamental problems at Cambridge’s education faculty, the same department which hired Jason Arday.

The project which platforms the creationist claims, the Islamic Educator Learning Community (IELC), is led by Cambridge’s assistant research professor of education, Farah Ahmed, a former activist in the since banned terror group Hizb ut-Tahrir..

IELC is “hosted by” and “partners with” a university body called the Cambridge Teacher Research Exchange, Camtree.

IELC publishes on its website, with a Camtree address, a paper on “Islamic scientific critical consciousness” . . .

The paper says that “countering colonial hegemony in science education for Muslims” could include “identifying gaps in fossil records to make the case that the evidence of humans descending from apes is inconclusive.”

On Tuesday, in the wake of the Jason Arday scandal, The Spectator revealed that Ahmed had been given the prestigious assistant professorship. We noted that in a 2002 pamphlet, republished in 2017, she attacked ‘western education’ as a ‘threat’ to Muslims, condemned democracy and integration, and criticised British schools for teaching that child marriage is wrong. Like the paper’s author, Mirza, Ahmed has also said that modern science is a problem, because in the “teaching of evolution, Muslim children will be exposed to ideas that contradict Islam.”

After that story created a storm, the education faculty took decisive action. It removed the names of all its staff from its website, presumably to stop anyone who doesn’t know about web archive tools checking to see if they’ve hired any more wrong’uns (spoiler alert: they have

Other action has been less forthcoming. The faculty clearly hopes to ride this one out, issuing a statement that it is “committed to academic freedom and freedom of speech within the law.” Well, we must reluctantly agree that Ahmed – benefiting from the democracy she condemns – should have the freedom to say that English is “one of the most damaging subjects” a school can teach, or (while teaching at Cambridge) write that Muslim students shouldn’t have to worry about “gaining literacy and numeracy and other disciplinary skills demonstrated through qualifications.”

But that’s quite different from believing that Cambridge University should fund her to promote her ideas to the future leaders of the country.

Still more indisputable is that a university subject, even one as debased as Education at Cambridge, should not promote baseless, anti-scientific twaddle in the name of academic research.

But it does.

🚨NEWS: Islamic Jihad Terrorist Supporter given job at Cambridge University

Farah Ahmed is a support of Hizb ut-Tahrir, a now proscribed terror organisation

She's been appointed to work in the same faculty as disgraced professor Jason Arday

During her time at Cambridge she has already written a piece on the Islamic concept of education and still holds true to her extremist Islamic views

Cambridge University has fallen

[The Spectator @spectator]

We can reveal that a former supporter of Hizb ut-Tahrir, now banned as a terror group, has been appointed assistant research professor of education at Cambridge, in the same faculty as Arday.

Farah Ahmed has explicitly attacked 'western education' as a 'threat' to Muslims, condemned democracy and integration, and criticised British schools for teaching pupils that child marriage is wrong.

During her time at Cambridge, she has written that the Islamic concept of education is sharply opposed to 'gaining literacy and numeracy and other disciplinary skills demonstrated through qualifications'.

These statements are part of her long record of bigoted, extremist and separatist views on education.

Nobody In Government Can Say They Were Not Warned

In 2016, NATO's senior European commander, General Philip Breedlove, told the BBC that Russia and Syria were deliberately weaponising migration to overwhelm European structures and break European resolve. In 2024 the Telegraph reported the Kremlin was using private militias to control migration routes into Europe. This year, Polish ministers and military commanders told Fox News that Russia and Belarus are running an organised operation, migrants flown to Minsk, funnelled to the border, pushed across in coordinated waves designed to test NATO's resolve. Lithuania has found over a dozen tunnels under that frontier since January. Finland shut its border entirely over the same concerns in 2024. NATO commanders, national governments and border services across Eastern Europe have warned the same thing for a decade.

Britain's own watchdog has told the government it cannot rule out those same migrants reaching these shores. Jonathan Hall KC, the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, reported that Manston, where Channel migrants are held, became so overwhelmed that people were released before checks were completed. Many arrivals carry no form of identity. Hall has recommended live facial recognition at Kent because the current system cannot reliably check arrivals against terror watchlists, and has warned that exposure to serious violence abroad is a relevant factor in assessing individual risk.

On Sunday night, a single dinghy carrying 230 people crossed the Channel, the largest number ever recorded on one boat, beating July's record of 165. Chris Philp watched French Gendarmes stand by in knee-deep water and do nothing to stop it. The average number of migrants per boat has risen from seven in 2018 to over 70 this month, smugglers packing them in ever tighter while Britain calls this progress because the boat count, not the passenger count, has fallen.

Put these facts together and the picture is not ambiguous. A hostile state tactic, identified by NATO's own commanders for a decade, is active on Europe's eastern border today. Britain's own reviewer has confirmed its processing system has released people before verification was complete. Nobody needs to prove where any individual has travelled to see the danger. The danger is the gap itself, a system admitting record numbers of unverified young men and dispersing them into towns and cities before it can say who they are.

That is what makes the government's posture so hard to defend. It is not managing a humanitarian inflow with imperfect resources. It is operating a system its own reviewer says has already failed to complete checks before release, against a backdrop where using migration as a weapon is not disputed by a single serious government in Eastern Europe. A four per cent removal rate. Hotel contracts running to 2039. Twelve new asylum centres opened without informing the MPs whose constituents will live beside them, and a Community Sponsorship Scheme inviting British families to house arrivals from the same nationalities, with no biometric registry to check any of them.

If a hostile actor wanted a soft entry point into a Western state, this is what one would look like: record numbers, low verification, rapid dispersal, and a government whose language treats every question about it as prejudice rather than security. Nobody in office can say they were not told. NATO said it in 2016. Poland and Lithuania are saying it now, with tunnels and troops to show for it.

If something happens, the government will not be able to claim it had no warning. The warnings are dated, named and official. What has been missing is not information. It is the will to act on it before the day arrives when acting on it is no longer a choice.
