Sir Keir Starmer has “delightfully” welcomed the return of the Egyptian activist, Alaa Abd El-Fattah who served years in prison.

El-Fattah has previously tweeted for Zionists to be murdered, white people to be killed and that women should be raped, despite this the red carpet treatment by Downing Street.

A Downing Street spokesperson said, “We welcome the return of a British citizen unfairly detained abroad.

“However, we have condemned the nature of these historic tweets and find them abhorrent.”

The Prime Minister previously stated, “I’m delighted that Alaa Abd El-Fattah is back in the UK and has been reunited with his loved ones, who must be feeling profound relief… Alaa’s case has been a top priority for my government since we came to office.”

It has been reported that counter terror police have allegedly been “inundated” with reports that El-Fattah has openly called on promoting the killing of police, white people by members of the British public who are outraged.

Fattah was given British citizenship in 2021 after a cross-party effort was made to free him from Egyptian detainment.

In 2022 Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said in an exchange with Starmer, “He is a British citizen jailed for the crime of posting on social media and has been imprisoned in Egypt for most of the last nine years; he has been on hunger strike for the last six months.

“The Prime Minister just said that he raised this case with President Sisi; what progress did he make in securing Alaa’s release?”

Since Starmer has been in power there has been a huge up tick in the Twitter police knocking on peoples doors, some have been sent to prison for tweets which are not as outrageous as Fattahs.

On Monday evening there was a backlash after it emerged that El-Fattah made a series of antisemitic and anti-British posts on social media.

The Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said, “It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of Mr El-Fattah should not be allowed into the UK.

The Tory leader Kemi Badenoch said, “The comments he made on social media about violence against Jews, white people and the police among others are disgusting and abhorrent – they were also anti-British.

Fattah has previously called Brits “dogs and monkeys and made calls for Downing Street to be burned.

Fattah said in a grovelling apology, “I am shaken that, just as I am being reunited with my family for the first time in 12 years, several historic tweets of mine have been republished and used to question and attack my integrity and values, escalating to calls for the revocation of my citizenship.

“Looking at the tweets now – the ones that were not completely twisted out of their meaning – I do understand how shocking and hurtful they are, and for that I unequivocally apologise.”

Reform’s head of policy, Zia Yusuf, posted on X, “Last year, 107 MPs and Peers wrote to David Lammy (the then-Foreign Secretary) urging him to secure the return of Alaa el-Fattah… a man who had publicly espoused his hatred of British people, white people and Jews.

“They included: six Tories, five Greens, 35 Labour, 34 Lib Dems… and ZERO Reform of course.

“The Alaa el-Fattah saga sums up the uniparty: prioritising those who hate Britain.

“Voting for the Tories again will only result in more of the same. Britain needs Reform.”
