“In a text message seen by the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), Coun McCarty said she had heard that her friend’s ousting in his Arthur’s Hill ward had been orchestrated by councillors in the West End of the city in order to get more black, Asian, and minority ethnic (BAME) candidates selected.”
For that, she was suspended for “Islamophobia” and accused of “racism.” So does that mean there was no such effort by councillors in the West End of the city? Or is even wondering if there is such an effort “Islamophobic”?
The problem with charges of “Islamophobia” is that there never seems to be any rational discussion surrounding them. What if McCarthy’s suspicions were accurate?
“Councillors stage walkout after Newcastle Labour politician suspended over Islamophobia spotted at meeting,” by Daniel Holland, Chronicle Live, September 9, 2022:
Dismayed councillors staged a walkout when a Newcastle politician suspended by the Labour Party over an Islamophobia scandal was spotted at a council meeting.
Joyce McCarty was seen at Wednesday night’s meeting of Newcastle City Council, the first time she has attended a public meeting since being suspended over claims of a “Muslim plot” against former city Labour leader Nick Forbes earlier this year. Former lord mayor of Newcastle Habib Rahman dramatically left the council chamber after seeing Coun McCarty, who is sitting as an independent during a 12-month ban from her party, at the back of the room and was followed by fellow Labour councillors Shumel Rahman, Nicu Ion and Abdul Samad.
Coun Habib Rahman told the Local Democracy Reporting Service that it was “difficult and painful” to see the former deputy council leader at the meeting and sat on the Labour side of the chamber, rather than in the section reserved for independents.
The Elswick ward councillor said: “I could not feel comfortable remaining in the chamber last night, after spending all of my life standing against racism in all forms. How could I sit there when there is a perpetrator of racism there?”
The Show Racism the Red Card campaigner added: “It was a great show of solidarity from my colleagues and I commend them. We demonstrated to every victim of hate crime, race crime, Islamophobic crime, that we support them and stand against perpetrators.”
The walkout came as new council leader Nick Kemp was delivering his first annual report to the authority. Coun McCarty has been contacted for a response.
Labour launched an investigation earlier this year over claims of a “Muslim plot” surrounding the dramatic removal of Coun Forbes from his Arthur’s Hill seat in February. In a text message seen by the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), Coun McCarty said she had heard that her friend’s ousting in his Arthur’s Hill ward had been orchestrated by councillors in the West End of the city in order to get more black, Asian, and minority ethnic (BAME) candidates selected.
She was initially suspended in late March and then given a formal 12 month suspension in July, after being “found guilty through investigation of Islamophobia”. In the meantime, she had been comfortably re-elected in her Wingrove ward at May’s local elections, where she had remained a Labour candidate on ballot papers….

Idiots!! They don’t even know the English language. Islamophobia is a made up word. A “phobia” is an irrational fear of something. [Want to see a phobia? I suggest you approach some Muslims & wave some bacon rashers in their faces. See what happens!]. This councillor’s concerns are clear, concise, accurate & most rational.
Plenty of evidence exists in the Western World of the utter contempt Muslims have for Western Laws. Recently in UK a Muslim man in court for raping a 9 year old girl said in his defence, ” I don’t see this as a crime. I can do this back home in Afghanistan.”
These protesting & ignorant Councillors ought to take their daughters, nieces, grandchildren etc to a Muslim community & watch them being gang sodomised, gang raped & sold on, (get a better price if they’re still virgins), & then be told, “What has just happened is NOT a crime under our Laws of Islam, which are superior to yours.”
Recently I learnt from the MAIN book of Islamic Law, The Reliance of the Traveller – which trumps the Quran – by the way, their is ONE Verse NOT translated into a Foreign Language. In fact it is the ONLY Verse not translated in the entire verses on Islam, because it is so disgusting. It is Section O part 12.3 towards the bottom of page 610.
It is the verse that endorses & promotes Necrophilia & Bestiality.
Our “Leaders” had better to seriously learn about Islam.

100% correct I downloaded it with a lot of difficulty, indeed the section is missing but I found a video explaining the missing bit:-

Shunning is common practice in cults.

All of the ones who walked out with “hurt” feelings, have mozlum names. Instead of walking out, they should all be kicked out.
mozlums work to further islam and the desires of mozlums. mozlums don’t consider the needs or desires of infidels as having any validity. mozlums should not be on any boards of government in any infidel nation. If mozlums want to run roughshod over others and insist that the Truth must not be spoken or even have questions asked, they should all just keep on walking until they get to some mozlum-run nation, such as pakistan or afghanistan.

Good point.
However, isn’t this happening in our country today? Remember this current regime attempted to create a “Bureau of Disinformation Management.” Police States and Totalitarian Regimes share some common goals, one of their primary goals is to eliminate Truth and, to control the narrative.

UK: Councillors walk out of city council meeting when councillor suspended for ‘Islamophobia’ is seen attending
………………………………………………
*Was* there a Muslim plot to oust this city council member? This has to be taken as “Islamophobic” even if it is true.

“In a text message seen by the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), Coun McCarty said she had heard that her friend’s ousting in his Arthur’s Hill ward had been orchestrated by councillors in the West End of the city in order to get more black, Asian, and minority ethnic (BAME) candidates selected.”…

………………………………………………
Of the members of the city council who walked out, three have Muslim names (the fourth has a Greek name). Newcastle upon Tyne is 1.7% Muslim, and had a Muslim mayor–but this is still not enough.

Never mind that Islam is *not a race*–calling someone racist always works best.
I’m still wondering if Joyce McCarty was right–*was* there a Muslim plot to oust Nick Forbes? There certainly seems to be a Muslim-led policy to isolate Councillor McCarty. (I was wondering why a Labour leader had been targeted, since Labour so often appeases Islam–but it looks as though this was intended to replace Forbes with someone else. Forbes is gay and *very* liberal–but perhaps not leftist enough. There’s a lot online, but almost no real details as to who was gunning for him).

A ‘Phobia’ is an irrational fear. Those who have ‘phobias’ would normally be deemed incapable of rational decisions either because of some kind of mental instability or low intellectual ability, or both. Therefore, anyone who accuses anyone else of ‘islamophobia’ for that reason is saying that the person holding the adverse opinion is ipso facto either mentally unbalanced, or stupid, or both. If anyone tried that line of conversation with me to my face, they’d be finding it necessary to visit a dentist afterwards for the fitting of a dental prosthesis.

Jayell1,
I agree that calling someone an islamophobe is insulting.
That being said, I don’t believe that it deserves a violent response…
