British Politician Arrested in London for Quoting Winston Churchill in Public (VIDEO)

British politician Paul Westin was arrested in London today after reading a quote by Winston Churchill on Islam.

Churchill wrote the famous quote in his 1899 book The River War on the British conquest of the Sudan.

It is now illegal to quote the great British Leader Winston Churchill on the streets of London.

The Daily Mail reported:

A candidate in the European elections was arrested on suspicion of racial harrassment after quoting a passage about Islam, written by Winston Churchill, during a campaign speech.

Paul Weston, chairman of the party Liberty GB, made the address on the steps of Winchester Guildhall, in Hampshire on Saturday.

A member of the public took offence at the quote, taken from Churchill’s The River War and called police.

The passage from the book, written by the wartime Prime Minister and first published in 1899, focuses on Churchill’s observations about Islam while serving during the Anglo-Egyptian reconquest of the Sudan.
