Blogger Najm Al-Din says while far-right thuggery must be opposed, Muslims must beware of Establishment agendas to clamp down on all of our civil liberties.
In light of the continuing outbreaks of violence which have gripped the nation over the past few weeks, it is urgent to deliver the following message to the Muslim community.
The civic unrest plaguing the streets of Britain was largely due to the weaponisation of migration and dog whistle ploys of politicians, far-right figureheads and social media influencers, all of whom must bear culpability for the societal breakdown in various parts of the country.
While grubby tabloids have for years encouraged readers to indulge their hatred of foreigners, the Islamophobic rhetoric of pro-Zionist grifters such as Tommy Robinson as well as baseless anti-immigrant bile spewed by the likes of Andrew Tate also contributed towards the right-wing ecosystem which triggered the racist underbelly in British society.
One must also account Big Tech firms for inciting the mob, with algorithms amplifying far-right accounts which spread misinformation regarding the perpetrator in the Southport killings, with many falsely implicating Muslims and Islam in the crime.
Therefore, one cannot divorce the bubbling cauldron of tensions in recent days from the toxic messaging of many sections of the British media, political establishment and technocracy, each of which fanned the flames of populism by scapegoating Muslims, refugees and migrants as existential threats.
But what interest is served by allowing such false reporting and race-baiting to continue unabated, especially when it heightens the prospect of violent clashes between various social groups?

Civil liberties
If history is any indication, we ought to be vigilant of civil liberties in the wake of national traumas. Powerful interest groups rarely let a good crisis go to waste, sensing opportunity from disasters to entrench their authoritarian control over the masses.
For some time now, human rights campaigners have sounded the alarm on the government’s attempt to criminalise free speech and the freedom of assembly.
The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill raised significant concerns about curtailing the right to protest, including harsher prison sentences for protestors, especially during the pandemic.
With the outpouring of support for Palestine following Israel’s genocide in Gaza, there has been a renewed focus on “extremism,” which is designed to conflate pro-Palestinian protests with antisemitism, hatred and violence.
Over the past year, there has also been much discussion about measures to curb the anti-social activities of the “Extinction Rebellion” and “Just Stop Oil” activists.
Furthermore, after the riots in Southport, Keir Starmer pledged to increase the use of live facial recognition technology as part of a new policing programme to clamp down on violent extremism.
At face value, laws which punish anyone threatening the public peace will be welcomed as a sensible and necessary intervention by the government.
However, we must be cautious before viewing these proposals as primarily geared towards preserving public safety and containing extremism.
It wasn’t too long ago when Starmer’s inflammatory comments about deporting Bangladeshis was an ugly reminder of the rightward lurch of the Labour Party.
Furthermore, the discourse surrounding “extremism” is so ill defined, it can easily be exploited to demonise grassroots activism and silence lawful dissent in the UK.
In light of recent events, I believe there are vested interests seeking to widen the social rifts and communal tensions and waiting for these demonstrations to erupt into violence, thus turning public sympathy against mass protests and justifying heavy-handedness at future demonstrations, proscription of otherwise peaceful organisations and increasing restrictions on the freedom of assembly.
So what exactly does Starmer and the Establishment gain by restricting our freedom of speech and why might this be an important objective of the government?
We cannot answer this question unless we draw attention to long term social and economic policies being mooted by the World Economic Forum lackeys in Whitehall.
UN Agenda 2030
The redefinition of extremism and attempts to arbitrarily quash dissent are motivated by a crucial date in the globalist timeline: 2030.
By the end of this decade, powerful stakeholders in the British government and across the private and public sectors are seeking to usher in a new social and economic contract for UK citizens, which entails transitioning the economy towards net zero as part of the UN 2030 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).
The SDGs are a collection of interlinked global aspirations relating to climate change, education, employment and virtually every sphere of human activity, designed to be a blueprint to achieve a more sustainable future.
What the British public must realise is that net zero means transitioning to a centrally planned circular economy which emphasises access over ownership and where products are rendered as services for more sustainable levels of consumption.
Not only does this deprive citizens of ownership rights, it will result in the greatest transfer of wealth in the country’s history by ceding sovereignty of the global commons to those controlling international capital flows, who can hoover up tangible assets, including private property which homeowners will struggle to finance, owing to exorbitant costs associated with maintaining zero-emission homes.
Unemployment and poverty
Many asset management firms and central banks have already spoken on the need to acclimatise Western populations for economic uncertainty and hinted at the prospect of cutting back on private consumption to finance the UK’s green energy infrastructure and sustainability targets.
Due to this war on conventional energy sources, living standards are expected to decline and a depressing era of austerity beckons for a sizable number of the British public.
It’s little coincidence that the march to net zero is taking place concurrently to the exponential rise of AI applications across industries.
The displacement of large swathes of the labour force by automated emerging technologies has also been mooted for the next decade by leaders across the business, technology and financial sectors, with a future generation of displaced workers coerced into low-skilled and low-paid service occupations and micro contracts in a gig economy.
As telepresence labour becomes the norm for a new impoverished underclass, many Britons will be thrust into a new corporate value chain through a circular two-tier economy consisting of owners and renters, under the guise of “sustainability.”
This will lead to a highly stratified society, UBI (Universal Basic Income) for millions of blue and white collar workers whose jobs will be outsourced to AI, Digital IDs which will interface with Bank of England programmable CBDCs(Central Bank Digital Currencies) with in-built restrictions on accessing public and social services for non-compliance with “approved” behaviours and the upending of the modern industrial economy to meet draconian net zero targets.
Therefore, the green energy transition coupled with the tech displacement of labour, as well as inflationary pressures and broken supply chains resulting from the UK’s endorsement of sanctions and wars against hostile states is a recipe for unprecedented social strife and chaos at home. Hence why the restrictions on protests are absolutely essential for policymakers in the run up to 2030.
To summarise, the government’s new counter-extremism strategy is not just about curbing the free speech of Muslims.
Rather, it’s a prelude to widespread restrictions on the freedom of assembly and dissent, with the long term objective of intimidating the public into compliance with a technocratic control grid which will be slowly enforced through the rollout of a biometric surveillance state, which Starmer recently alluded to.
Seeing as there is likely to be huge pushback as UN Agenda 2030 builds momentum and the financial security of the middle classes is imperilled, a major flash point like the current riots can be leveraged to chip away at our freedoms and loosen the statutory constraints on state surveillance activities.
This will lay the foundations for an increasingly hi-tech authoritarian form of governance and cybernetic control that can keep a lid on violence between authorities and an embittered public which this globalist Great Reset will inevitably give rise to.
Pawns on the chessboard
While we must take a brave stand against far-right thuggery, we must also be cautious not to initiate hostilities or respond impulsively to provocations. Importantly, we must evaluate our actions against the backdrop of the seismic socio-economic changes which the British government are trying to foist on the population heading into 2030.
From my observations, the majority of Muslims in the UK are oblivious to how the government is grooming the public for a radical restructuring of the social, economic and political system in the coming decade.
To avoid nationwide upheaval when punitive measures are enforced on the public to hasten the transition to net zero and mitigate the fallout resulting from the breakdown in supply chains caused by a massive conflagration in the Middle East, the government needs a legitimate test case to make an example of mass public disorder, before justifying the normalisation of authoritarian public measures and return of “Big Government.”
It appears to me that these riots are a tinderbox by design and Muslims are the trial balloon for what will eventually become the greatest clampdown of civil liberties in the UK’s history, once a technocratic control grid is erected to micromanage a discontented public.
We have been prodded in this direction for a while. Our mistake was ignoring the dystopian prediction made by the World Economic Forum:
“By 2030, you will own nothing and be happy.”
The New Normal
Muslims in the West must not be distracted by the culture wars, viewing political events in isolation from grand globalist designs.
By violently responding to far-right hooliganism, we not only fuel social tensions but also offer the Great Resetters in government the legal pretext to enforce an emergency state of exception by suppressing the freedom of assembly, criminalising public demonstrations and immobilising anything that can amount to collective resistance against the “new normal” which they have co-signed without any public mandate, largely at the behest of unelected corporations and oligarchs.
Sadly, we are being managed as pawns on the geopolitical chessboard, unwittingly aiding the agendas of politicians that are in the pocket of unaccountable bureaucrats and globalist sponsors, who have mastered the dark art of problem, reaction and solution.
Our enemies have the Hegelian dialectic down to a science. Instead of fuelling this diabolical agenda, it’s time to visualise the bigger picture.
