Oh dear me. TV ‘personality’ Rachel Riley has landed herself in a bit of a pickle after tweeting that the slogans on British Movement stickers found in North London are an incitement to terrorism. So offended was the woke warrior that she urged people seeing the stickers to call the police: “This is a counter terrorism issue.”
Riley co-presents the Channel 4 daytime puzzle show Countdown and its comedy spin-off 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. She is a mathematics graduate and was born in Rochford, Essex. Her mother is Jewish, and she has stated that “my family came over in the pogroms” from Tsarist Russia.
Rachel Riley’s tweet and the replies to it can be viewed here: >>
The stickers, which should be used on correspondence only, have messages such as: ‘No Surrender To Globalism’, ‘Stop Building Mosques’ and ‘Stop Immigration – Start Repatriation’. Hardly a call to support ISIS or Hamas, is it Rachel?
Riley’s post, which up to press has been viewed over 182,000 times, contained the following dire warning:
“A friend of mine spent a large part of her day removing Neo-Nazi stickers in north London.
“I’ve blocked out their name & website to not give free advertising, but if you see these on your travels, the message is to please contact the police – this is a counter terrorism issue.”
Fortunately, many of those who responded to Riley’s post were not convinced by her blind hatred for anything that smacks of White Nationalism. We at BM Northern Region would like to offer our thanks to Rachel for bringing the British Movement to the attention of so many potential recruits.
