This isn't democracy.
Lindsay Hoyle has banned MPs from asking any questions about the Southport Attack.
Isabel Oakenshott posted on X saying that the Speaker Lindsay Hoyle has banned all Members of Parliament from talking about the Axel Rudakubana case including the asking of any questions during Prime Minister's Question Time. In addition MPs will not be allowed to ask the Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, about the case either.
This comes after it emerged that the Government's entire narrative about the Southport attack was false. Rudakubana was not Welsh, or a Christian, he was a second generation immigrant and an Islamic convert. Not only was the narrative misinformation, it was knowingly false as within hours of the attack terrorist equipment had been found in Rudakubana's home.
Both the Prime Minister and Home Secretary will have been made aware of these finds, yet continued to push the entirely false narrative. That false narrative was then used to persecute members of the public who didn't believe it. Many of those were arrested, prosecuted and sent to prison.
The signs were clear from the outset: the nature of the attack and the selection of victims bore a chilling resemblance to the Manchester bombing. Innocent young girls enjoying a night out—targets all too familiar to those who have seen the brutal results of Islamist extremism. And yet, the Government insisted on maintaining a “Welsh Christian” narrative, one that would strain credulity in even the mildest political context.
The implications of this false narrative run deep. It wasn’t simply a matter of spinning the facts, even as evidence mounted that the attack was ideologically driven. By perpetuating a convenient fiction, they created a basis to vilify citizens who dared question their account. Dozens of people who spoke out against the falsehoods have reportedly been arrested, prosecuted, and even imprisoned for doing so.
This pattern of obfuscation calls into question the lengths to which ministers will go to push their own agendas. The Speaker’s censorship is another nail in the coffin of British Democracy, the Speaker of the House is supposed to be impartial, but is clearly colluding with the Government to suppress the truth. The public want answers, the public deserve answers, and if our elected representatives can't get them, and the media won't bother, then democracy is over, and a new era of Islamic supremacy has emerged.
