Brace yourselves, readers, because what you are about to read is the worst kind of political correctness.

This is London Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick.

London Police commissioner says nationalities of eight London Bridge victims tell a proud story of city's diversity https://t.co/9msx7b7s4S pic.twitter.com/euPEDQknTM

Are. You. Kidding.

“It’s desperately sad and poignant but among those who died is someone who’s British, there are French, Australian, Canadian, Spanish,” Cressida Dick told The Associated Press in an interview Saturday.

“In terms of our witnesses that we’ve spoken to so far, out of the 300-odd people, there are about 20 different countries of origin. And the London British population comes from all kinds of backgrounds and every kind of faith and ethnicity.”

She said longtime Londoners value this international aspect of the British capital.

“We believe of course that that’s what makes our city so great,” she said. “It’s a place where the vast majority of time it’s incredibly integrated and that diversity gives us strength.”

Congratulations, families of the London Bridge dead. Your loved one’s death is now proving just how “integrated” and “diverse” London has become.


I’m pretty sure that the victims’ families would rather have them alive than being touted as proof of tolerance.

The last few months in Great Britain, and this attack in particular, have pointed out more failures in the philosophy of “diversity and tolerance” than anything else possibly could. Here’s a short list of how the British police and government have failed its citizens and visitors:
– The police are unarmed and unequipped to protect high-traffic tourist areas.
– Despite reports and a Channel 4 documentary called “The Jihadis Next Door,” the police failed to follow up on the men who eventually carried out the attack on London Bridge.
– Mayor Sadiq Khan freely admitted they’re not keeping tabs on 400 people who have been to Syria and returned to the UK.

– The police are SUPER CONCERNED about “hate speech,” and will not be having ANY of that. “Jihadis Next Door”? Not so much.

Sadiq Khan said police were too stretched to follow returnee jihadists. But they can police words no problem. https://t.co/Yzvam4CiNS

No, seriously. Cressida Dick herself told the BBC how they are not going to be putting up with “hate crimes.”

But the most telling part of any Cressida Dick interview is this – while she reflects proudly on the diversity of the dead, she doesn’t say anything about the lack of diversity among the terrorists. Because that would probably be “hate speech,” right?
