The United Kingdom has fallen hard. A British man was arrested earlier in the week after saying “we love bacon” in front of a mosque. The man’s remarks violated the U.K.’s “racial abuse” laws due to Muslims being unable to eat pork because the Quran regards it as unclean. Watch the man here: BREAKING – A young man from Dalton, UK has been arrested after shouting “we love bacon” during a protest at a mosque. pic.twitter.com/pLX2VkP25M — Right Angle News Network (@Rightanglenews) August 20, 2025 The Blaze covered the arrest more closely and dived deeper into the U.K.’s booming Muslim population: The State Department admonished the U.K. this week against continuing its clampdown on free speech and persecution of Christians, once again blasting the penalties handed out to those Britons who dare to engage in silent prayer near abortion facilities. It turns out that British pork lovers may similarly be in need of such advocacy. A Englishman in the northwest of the country was arrested on Aug. 16 for expressing an affinity for bacon — a food forbidden by the Quran but essential to a full English breakfast. Apparently, such an utterance now qualifies as “racial abuse.” Census data indicates that the number of people in England and Wales identifying as Christian dropped from 59.3% in 2011 to 46.2% in 2021. During the same 10-year stretch, the number of respondents identifying as Muslim rose from 4.9% to 6.5% — an increase of well over 1 million people. To accommodate England and Wales’ fast-growing Muslim population, there has in recent years been an explosion in the number of mosques across the isle. This expansion has made its way to the town of Dalton-in-Furness in the English county of Cumbria, which is set to get its first mosque. The South Lakes Islamic Center, spearheaded by Muslim doctors at Barrow’s Furness General Hospital, was greenlit for development in 2021, and construction began in earnest earlier this year. It is set for a grand opening next year. ‘Enough with the inclusivity BS.’ Some of the townsfolk are less than pleased over the construction of a $3.35 million, 3,234-square-foot mosque just outside their town of under 8,000 souls. Some critics are concerned parents who are worried that the planned mosque’s proximity to a Catholic elementary school will prove disruptive, affect the safety of the town’s children, and increase traffic congestion. Other critics have suggested that the mosque would be a “sign of conquest and occupation.” The leader of the U.K. Independence Party, Nick Tenconi, noted in June that “Dalton-in-Furness has a population of 7,827 and there are 3 mosques already in Cumbria. Only 0.4% of people in Cumbria are Muslim. Mosques like this are being built to facilitate Operation Scatter.” Critics have referred to the Starmer goverment’s campaign to move asylum-seekers and illegal aliens around the country and house them in empty homes or former student blocks instead of military bases and migrant hotels as “Operation Scatter.” It’s also now a crime in the U.K. to whistle at women.
