The UK is Marxist in culture.
If the UK were Marxist, Muslims would be banned- as would Christians.
I heard of Sharia Law being legally imposed
Again, not Marxist.

Amoxtli@thelemmy.club 2 months agoWell, let me tell you a little story I witnessed. A Christian woman named Hatun Tash uses her own Qur’an, had it stolen by a Muslim, and the cops arrested her, instead of the perpetrator. It took a Christian activist group to get the police to admit their injustice, and she was compensated for it. Being a good Christian, instead of keeping the money for herself, she gave it to the Christian activist group that cleared her name.

Yea I heard that from the EDL as well. It’s not true, but I also heard they’ve got Muslamic rayguns so maybe we should be worried. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIPD8qHhtVU

So, you’re saying there was a slight miscarriage of justice which, on appeal, was rectified? I’m sorry there was a problem but, by your own account, it was fixed.
The UK cannot be both Marxist and living under Sharia law; they’re diamatrically opposed. In fact, no where is Sharia law legally imposed, whatever you may have heard.
It is not true that you can’t be ‘proud’ of being ‘English’. There is a St. George’s Day parade in many towns and cities, including London, where it is led by Sadiq Khan, the mayor, who is both proudly Muslim and proudly English. Like most people, he sees no contradiction.
It is not true that talking about Anglo-Saxon culture is considered white supremacy. Schools and universities talk a great deal about figures from Shakespeare to Alan Turing to Millicent Fawcett (I’m picking three examples at random) all of whom were Anglo-Saxon. No one feels the need to point this out, because it would be fucking weird, but like all cultures everywhere, we mostly talk about people from our own culture. The idea this is banned or frowned upon is imaginary.

Slight miscarriage? She was thrown in jail based on no evidence. This 5’2" lady has been beaten and attacked with a knife and no suspects caught, but apparently, a Muslim stealing her Qur’an gets handcuffs on her. She was even told that Muslims are a protected class and she can’t debate them in Speaker’s Corner.

Tom Holland, a writer, and historian of popular history complains as well that he is silenced from talking about English history, instead, he is pressured to talk about the other wonderful cultures as a public figure.

How can you be an indirect witness? You either saw something or you didn’t.
No, pretty sure this is a capitalist country. Care to explain further?
Who did you hear this from? Where and when was it imposed? Because I heard they’ve got Muslamic ray guns www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIPD8qHhtVU

From your first link:
"The council has no legal authority in the UK and cannot enforce any penalties; "
Muslims follow their religious leaders like Christians follow their church ministers. Neither have legal powers.

What is legal by British law does not matter to Sharia. Just like Mormons with multiple wives. It is illegal, or not legal, by federal and state laws, but that does that stop Mormons from having multiple wives and grooming children for marriage? No.
