Who Is Geert Wilders? From ‘Moroccan Scum’ to ‘Ban the Quran’; Man Behind Europe’s Anti-Islam Agenda

Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders has long been one of Europe’s most polarizing figures. From calling Moroccans “scum” to demanding a ban on mosques and the Quran, Wilders has built his political career on fierce anti-Islam rhetoric. But who is the man behind the controversies? Why does he command such influence — and fear — in the Netherlands and beyond? This video unpacks Wilders’ rise, his inflammatory speeches, the fallout from his policies, and how he just triggered a political earthquake in Dutch politics. #GeertWilders #IslamDebate #DutchPolitics #FarRightEurope #GeertWildersSpeech #AntiIslam #PVV #NetherlandsPolitics #WildersControversy #BanTheQuran #EuropeanElections #ImmigrationDebate #WildersVsIslam #DutchElections #IslamInEurope Also Read Pakistan: Religious Leader Shot Dead In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-religious-leader-shot-dead-in-khyber-pakhtunkhwa-4119325.html?ref=DMDesc Shahid Afridi Pressured Me To Convert To Islam: Pakistan's Ex-Cricketer Danish Kaneria :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/shahid-afridi-pressured-me-to-convert-to-islam-pakistans-ex-hindu-cricketer-danish-kaneria-4094081.html?ref=DMDesc Saddam Becomes Shivshankar: Muslim Man Converts To Hinduism To Marry Girlfriend Of 10 Years :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/saddam-becomes-shivshankar-muslim-man-converts-to-hinduism-to-marry-girlfriend-of-10-years-4047465.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.194~GR.125~

Who is Tommy Robinson? The Far-Right ANTI-ISLAM Campaigner Backed By Elon Musk

UK Far-Right Leader Tommy Robinson has been released four months early after the UK High Court ruled on his contempt of court sentence. Jailed for violating an injunction linked to a libel case involving Syrian refugee Jamal Hijazi, Robinson faced penalties for promoting a banned film repeating defamatory claims. Despite promising future compliance, Robinson criticized the government in a viral post and thanked Elon Musk for support. The case has reignited debate on censorship, defamation, and freedom of expression in Britain. #TommyRobinson #ContemptOfCourt #FreeSpeechUK #ElonMusk #CensorshipDebate #JamalHijazi #SilencedFilm #UKLaw #DefamationCase #MediaFreedom #HighCourtUK #CivilContempt #PoliticalPrisoner #BritishJustice #ElonMuskSupport #FreedomOfSpeech #PlatformReinstated #UKPolitics #XPlatform #LibelLaw #LegalNews #UKCourts #OnlineSpeech #MuskTweet #SocialMediaBan #UKDocumentary #SilencedByState #TruthTellerClaim #TommyRobinsonReleased Also Read Rudy Giuliani Found in Contempt of Court for Continued Lies About Georgia Election Workers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rudy-giuliani-contempt-court-georgia-election-workers-011-4039355.html?ref=DMDesc Contempt Of Court: IAS Officer Booked For Allegedly Threatening Judge :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/contempt-of-court-ias-officer-booked-for-allegedly-threatening-judge-3896993.html?ref=DMDesc DSGMC President, General Secretary Held Guilty of Contempt for Failing to Pay School Employees :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/delhi-high-court-holds-dsgmc-president-general-secretary-guilty-contempt-court-gen-3761437.html?ref=DMDesc

Rotherham Elects British-Pakistani Mayor even as Grooming gangs scandal still haunts town

Rotherham, a UK town infamous for the grooming gang scandal involving predominantly British-Pakistani men, has appointed Rukhsana Ismail—a British-Pakistani woman—as mayor. Though chosen by council members, not public vote, the move sparked backlash online. Critics argue it's insensitive to victims, calling it a "cruel twist" and accusing the UK of cultural erasure. Others defend Ismail’s appointment as merit-based and unrelated to past crimes. The controversy reignites debates around identity, justice, and Islamophobia in a deeply fractured political climate. #Rotherham #RukhsanaIsmail #UKPolitics #GroomingGangs #Islamophobia #ChildExploitation #BritishPakistani #RotherhamMayor #CulturalDebate #VictimsJustice #OnlineBacklash #EthnicRepresentation #UKNews #IdentityPolitics #ControversialAppointment #RotherhamScandal #SocialMediaDebate #PoliticalControversy #UnityOrDivision #BritishIdentity #MayorDebate #ScandalLegacy #MulticulturalUK #UKRacism #SexualExploitation #PublicOutcry #PoliticalRepresentation ~HT.318~
