Suella Braverman has suggested that the UK could become “the first Islamist nation with nuclear weapons”.
The former home secretary said Britain could “fall into the hands of Muslim fundamentalism” and become like Iran.
She made the incendiary comments in a speech to the right-wing Heritage Foundation think-tank in Washington.
Braverman said: “Vice-president JD Vance said at the National Conservatism conference, at which I also spoke in the summer, that the UK was going to be the first Islamist nation with nuclear weapons. I don’t think he was joking.
“Is it an impossibility that 20 years from now it will be the UK, not China or Russia, that will emerge as the greatest strategic threat to the USA?
“Born out of a broken relationship and weak leadership. What happens if the UK falls into the hands of Muslim fundamentalism, our legal system gets substituted for Sharia Law and our nuclear capabilities vest in a regime not too dissimilar to that of Iran today?
“Regardless of whether one thinks that is a realistic outcome, which I do not, should we not have the courage to ask these questions?”
This feels like you fail to even have a basic grasp of the words you use.

Its always been said that Americans are generally pretty poor in their understanding of politics. They don’t understand socialism, they don’t understand the difference between socialism and communism, and they don’t understand what a liberal is, getting it confused with communism and fascism depending on the day of the week.
Liberalism was used as the ideology to chop off rich peoples heads in France. Liberalism was used as the reason to remove royalty from the head of state in Britain.
NEOLIBERAL is a form of conservative fiscal liberalism to justify privatisation and deregulation.

Suella Braverman is simply a sack of shit.
Thats a lot of stretching, and absolutely nothing to do woth fucking liberalism. It’s simply moronic.
I appreciate that books are a bit harder to read than Wikipedia pages, but I really do recommend it.
I’ll be less glib: liberalism was used to justify French slave ownership too. It also has been the justification for global interventionist policy by the imperial core. “Bringing liberal democracy to dictatorships.”
