Hate preacher @PrisonPlanet's new website is live and he's definitely back on his bullshit in celebration.
Let's dissect how fake news is made by zeroing in on the facts of this "story" and talk a little bit about how Paul uses these stories to incite against Muslims.

The general conceit of @PrisonPlanet's piece is that Sadiq Kahn--who Paul specifically points out is the *Muslim* Mayor of London--bans ads with Bikini girls and fast food, but not tourism ads for Brunei, which recently passed laws allowing for the stoning of LGBTQ people.
So we've established Kahn had nothing to do with those bikini ads. What's next from @PrisonPlanet?
Well, he jumps to this year, as Kahn's @TfL banned ads promoting junk food in an attempt to curb childhood obesity, a move Londoners were firmly in favor of according to @guardian

What's the connection here?
Well, there is none. One thing happend in 2015 at the behest of @ASA_UK and the other had nothing to do with bikini girls.
The goal here is to try and tie these disparate events together to setup the 2 minutes of hate in the next part of the piece.

In this final piece, @PrisonPlanet slams Kahn for supporting ads from Brunei. Bikinis and fast food (Western things) bad, Brunei (Muslim, stones gays) bad, therefore Sadiq Kahn is up to something!
Only Kahn's @TfL pulled the ads in light of Bruneis new discriminitory laws.

And it should be noted the @TfL announced the ads were being pulled BEFORE Paul tweeted out his article. So, wonderful journalistic ethics there, Paul.
But the thing that's disturbing is that @PrisonPlanet's agenda clearly centers around Sadiq Kahn being a Muslim.
The clear implication is that Muslims are undermining Western societies in a plot to destroy them.
And that message was received LOUD AND CLEAR by his audience.

It's incitement with plausible deniability baked into the way it's presented. It's not overtly Islamophobic, like some of @PrisonPlanet's material. But it continues the drum beat of hate aimed at Muslims.
The results are obvious enough to see. Christchurch being the most recent.

What does Kahn's religion have to do with ANY of these three instances Paul covers? Absolutely nothing.
The only reason to mention it in this context is to tie "clownworld' antics to Islam and Muslims who are doing things he doesn't like. Because HE stands for "the West."
