“I don’t wanna be a pinhead no more…” – The Ramones
I’m going to say the quiet part out loud; this is nothing more than an attempt by the Starmer government to placate Pakistani-Muslims.
It was just a few days ago that the Britain’s socialistic, government-run NHS (National Health Service) posted “the benefits” of first cousin marriage.
Amazingly enough, more than a few people with common sense pushed back. NHS has since pulled their own posting from their official website.
For more, here’s some of the story published by the Washington Examiner (emphasis mine);
The United Kingdom‘s publicly funded health service has deleted recent guidance in which it noted “benefits” of first-cousin marriages and warned against “stigmatizing certain communities” for the practice.
NHS England’s Genomics Education Programme released the guidance, titled “Should the UK government ban first-cousin marriage?” on Sept. 22. The guidance asserted that cousin marriage has been “practiced for centuries across many cultures” and questioned the prudence of banning it.
The blog post caused a firestorm due to its insistence on tolerance toward consanguineous marriage, or the marriage between first cousins, a practice among many immigrant communities, particularly Islamic communities, known for greatly heightening the risk of health complications and genetic disease.
“This article should not have been published, and we have removed it,” an NHS spokesperson told the Washington Examiner on Monday.
