" PM Theresa May refuses to commit to adopting recommended Islamophobia definition".




Is  this a threat from the Muslim Council Of Great britain towards the British Prime Minister and her party?

"The Muslim Council of Britain warns the Conservative Party is at risk of 'placing themselves on the wrong side of the argument'" .



Sounds very much like one to me.

Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness

I read an article here with my morning coffee and the author was pretty straight up that they wanted this "definition" above to manipulate people, and gave an example of why people should be slandered for not accepting the insult to their intelligence, and apparently the expectation of an inferior education. The terminology obviously can't be agreed upon because people will always reasonably believe it connotates an irrational fear of Islam, which is also not a race.

This seems an inappropriate manner of addressing the educational failures in your country, pandering this nonsense wherever it is coming from.

I wonder if "racism" has some sort of legal leverage amongst the codified means for enabling the enforcement of aristocratic assaults on free thinking which is managing to permeate throughout much of Europe, including the UK.  In my country, people would be preparing for revolt.  Have you noticed any similar concerns mounting around this subject?

Which, in their own words,“racialises” Islam. "muslimness" ????another non word  created by the left to ban free speech. I have read the forward to this ridiculous proposal here>>>  https://policyexchange.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Defining-Islamophobia.pdf

Someone should remind these traitors that the English language has stood us well for hundreds of years and doesn't need defining simply to outlaw and criminalise the criticism of a religion or ideology. 
 phobic
/ˈfəʊbɪk/
adjective

Islam has given me many a reason to rationally fear it. And this of course is another reason they are desperate to put a definition to the non word "islamophobia".. You will not even find this  non word in any  dictionary in the world printed before 9/11.

about 15 years ago, the late great Christopher Hitchens warned of the "criminalisation" of the then newly invented  word- "islamophobia" in this 4 minute video here>>>Christopher Hitchens on Islam and the End Freedom of Speech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32KRwzJsy1o&t=34s

 By all accounts in the UK and much of Europe there is a growing feeling that before soon, people will have to defend themselves against the "islamic threat", as the elected elite have simply refuse to listen to, and take notice of the, very genuine and rational fear that its citizens have concerning the very real threat that Islam poses to the West. Islam is causing problems all over Europe and these cretins in power are ignoring it and insisting that "Islam is a religion of peace". I have yet to see a single scrap of evidence that supports that opinion. 

looking at the Pew research projection figures it paints a terrible demise of white westerners. 

Europe’s Growing Muslim Population
Muslims are projected to increase as a share of Europe’s population – even with no future migration


So the fear westerners have is genuine and rational.
