DISINFO: UK is becoming Islamic

SUMMARY

The British authorities refused to offer asylum to the Pakistani Christian woman Asia Bibi because they’re afraid of the reaction of Pakistani Muslims living in the UK. Thereby, the blasphemy laws are already in force in the UK, which allows the Islamisation of itself.

RESPONSE

No evidence given. Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Islamisation. There has been no decision made on this and therefore it’s wrong to say an application has been refused. U.K. Muslim organisations have called for asylum to be granted. To read about countries which actually have blasphemy laws, click here.
