US Author Janie Johnson Who Claimed London Is 'All Islamic' Prompts Hilarious Twitter Backlash

'An Islamic minaret now stands beside England's House of Parliament.'

When an American author claimed that London has “gone” and is now “all Islamic”, members of the British public couldn’t resist the opportunity to show her what’s really going on in the capital.

Janie Johnson, from Nevada, tweeted this hot take, courtesy of a “friend”:

My friends just returned from London. Shocked. Hadn't been in 20 years. Said London is gone - all Islamic. https://t.co/YFFKkt2wli

When a fellow user said the US “must not let it happen to America”, Johnson also went on claim that Britons had “let their culture just be erased”.

Agree. They were adamant- why Britain just let their culture be erased! https://t.co/Dyo0mD5jwv

Twitter users quickly piled in with their suggestions on how London has clearly become “all Islamic”. Or not...

The London skyline is starting to look rather different now

The study found that public institutions sometimes condone “regressive, divisive and harmful cultural and religious practices” for fear of being branded racist.

The year-long study, which was commissioned by former prime minister David Cameron found divisions within communities is growing in some places.

Casey said: “We can no longer duck difficult issues.” Public bodies were accused of going “too far to accommodate diversity and freedom of expression”.

The report also said immigrants should have to take an “oath of integration” and schoolchildren should be taught “British values” to help bring communities together.
