Who’s trying to break Britain?

Understanding the rise of the far-right, the scapegoating of Muslims, and our responsibility to protect Britain's future

By Dilly Hussain Dr. Salman Butt 24 Rb2 47 ◦︎ 16 Oct 25

Last weekend saw the largest far-right gathering in British history. From calls to close the borders and stop Islam, to open incitement of violence against the Prime Minister — this moment marks a dangerous shift in British politics.

In this podcast, Dr. Salman Butt speaks with journalist and activist Dilly Hussain, Deputy Editor of 5Pillars, about:

  • How Elon Musk and mainstream media are fuelling the fire
  • The overlap between Zionist interests and far-right narratives
  • The real economic drivers behind immigration and discontent
  • Why Muslims are being scapegoated — and how we should respond
  • The three strands of nationalism in the UK: civic, Christian, and ethno.

This is about Britain’s future, community relations, and our responsibility as Muslims to our neighbours and society.
