A controversial campaign video circulating in the lead-up to next month’s local elections in Wycombe has drawn sharp criticism from senior political figures and raised concerns over potential breaches of UK electoral law. The video, aimed at Muslim voters, promotes certain candidates based on their stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and uses overt religious messaging, including the phrase “Allah sees everything,” to influence voter behaviour.

 

The video highlights 81 Buckinghamshire county council candidates, distinguishing between those who support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement and those who do not. Eighteen candidates who pledged to “support and promote divestment from companies involved in human rights violations” are marked with green ticks. In contrast, 63 others who either opposed the boycott or did not respond to inquiries are labelled with red crosses.

 

 

Text at the start of the video reads: “Think before you vote! It’s clear who is supporting genocide and subservient to their masters. There are those that are against it, have morals and are not scared to support the oppressed. Don’t just vote because they are Muslim.” It ends with a stark warning: “Think before you vote. Separate the clout seekers from humans who will make a difference. Don’t sell your soul as Allah sees everything.”

 

The video bears the logos of the High Wycombe branch of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) and the national pressure group Palestine on the Ballot. However, the PSC has publicly denied any involvement in producing the clip. A spokesperson from the High Wycombe branch stated, “This video was not produced by our branch, and we have no knowledge of who created it. It does contain some screenshots of legitimate questions that our High Wycombe branch has asked of all candidates standing in the upcoming local elections, along with their responses.”

 

The video’s use of religious language and its attempt to influence voters on spiritual grounds has sparked concern that it may fall foul of the Elections Act 2022, which prohibits “undue spiritual influence” — a criminal offence carrying a maximum prison sentence of two years.

 

Kemi Badenoch, leader of the Conservative Party, strongly condemned the video, calling it “evil Islamist sectarianism.” Speaking to The Telegraph, she said, “Conservatives will never succumb or kowtow to this evil Islamist sectarianism, which destroys lives all around the world. It is evil, make no mistake, and it stands against everything we believe in. Every day millions of people flee countries where this sort of politics is practised. It does not belong in Britain and threatens our democracy and our way of life.”

 

Steve Baker, former Conservative MP for Wycombe and a former minister of state for Northern Ireland, echoed these concerns, drawing parallels between the video and the dangers of religiously divided politics. “As a former minister of state for Northern Ireland, I’ve seen the legacy of sectarian religious politics – it is not a healthy place to go,” he said. “If you’re amongst those who are promoting it, stop it please. You’re not even serving the people of Gaza.”

 

Baker added a direct message to local Muslim voters: “If you’re a local British Muslim, please know that voting on religious lines is not helping that cause, and far from it, it’s harming your own position in the United Kingdom.”

 

Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, also weighed in, claiming the video confirms his warnings about religiously influenced voting blocs. “This is sectarian politics, as I predicted. Do they realise these are local elections?” he asked.

 

According to the 2021 census, around 7 percent of Buckinghamshire's population identifies as Muslim — slightly above the national average. Of the 18 candidates endorsed in the video, eight are Liberal Democrats, eight are independents, and two are Conservatives. Labour, which suffered losses in past elections due to pro-Palestinian independent challengers, has faced declining Muslim support following the October 7 Hamas attacks and the ensuing war in Gaza.

 

Adding to the atmosphere, a group called The Muslim Vote, which advocates for pro-Gaza positions in British elections, stated in a recent social media clip: “We will organise on every front. We will play the game but from now on we play to win,” indicating plans to target “100 seats” in the next general election.

 

Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the Green Party were contacted for comment regarding the video but had not responded at the time of publication.

So now they have showed their hand and the 'Take over' is happening officially??

Since WW II there's been a law in the UK prohibiting political parties from wearing a uniform.  This law should be applied to the Muslim dress-code as it's clearly a uniform (when viewed in the context of the UK where more practical clothing is the norm), and the muslim religion in the UK has clearly evolved into a political movement.

 

There always has been a method to their madness.  And one group of useless politicians after another need google maps to find their way home.

A predominantly Muslim Parliament is the ultimate goal. The crowning glory. A flag in the sand type of moment.

Nothing like a little Islamaphobia to get the more rabid on this forum throthing at the mouth and talking of a 'Muslim takeover'.

 

From the article 'According to the 2021 census, around 7 percent of Buckinghamshire's population identifies as Muslim — slightly above the national average'. Now I know that maths isn't a strong point for most of you lot but that still leaves 93% that aren't muslim - a number I hope you agree would be sufficient to stop this 'muslim takeover' you all keep cr@pping on about.

I wonder at which point would you start throwing conniptions if we were to repeat that statement multiple times, while at each time changing ‘Islam’ for each of the many other religions present in the UK?

I think I’m correct in saying that the vast majority of Muslims on the UK were born in the UK, fully British citizens by birth, and upon reaching the age of 18 acquiring their citizen’s rights to vote.

 

So what’s this ‘Muslim infiltration’ nonsense you refer to?

Moreover, not all of that 7% are old enough to vote, or might not have a vote, others might not vote, might vote for any of the candidates and might not be observant Muslims, let alone inclined to oblige anyone ‘telling’ them how to vote.

 

Muslims, like any other groups of people professing any other faith are not a monolith.

 

 

 

 

 

There is no Allah and no Palestine to free, most of the protectorate is Syria, they just want to destroy Israel.

It starts locally, then nationally and tomorrow, the world. It is the stated aim of Islam.

The two resident Islamophiles (or more likely one with two accounts) are trying too hard to state the outdated woke propaganda.  The rest of us have eyes open.

In all honesty, how many observant Muslims even consider another name - unlike Judaism or Christianity which have a great many Christian or given names to choose from in their scriptures, then there are a great many secular names available.

 

I would suggest that makes the statistic somewhat misleading.

I don't know as you have no idea also. But there are plenty of other names and top boys name for babies in the UK for the last 6 years running in not exactly misleading, its as plane as day. 

 

Pew Research estimated that by 2050, 17% of the population will be Muslim. In some constituencies such as Birmingham, Hodge Hill 62.4% of constituents identify as Muslim, with 58.7% identifying as Muslim in Bradford West, and 55.9% in Birmingham, Hall Green.

Women teaching men

There is no legal objection to men teaching women or vice-versa. Muslims have always maintained that the mere presence of women in the same place as men is not prohibited in itself.

"Islamic scholars generally agree that women can teach men, and there are no specific verses in the Quran or Sunnah that forbid it."
