A questionable source I know, but I’d be interested to know if anyone knows more about this.

I mean it’s the Daily Mail so why let fact get in the way of a nice big, easy to stir pot of hot, fresh, bubbling hate right? A truer headline would be, “Ridiculous cult leader looks to buy island to do a thing he can’t do because no matter how far he is from the mainland he’s still subject to British law.”

>are in advanced talks to buy the remote isle of Torsa, off the west coast of Scotland.
So, they haven’t got the island. They’re potentially just in talks.
>In a video encouraging supporters to donate towards their £3.5 million target, the cleric says he will negotiate with the Government to allow Muslims ‘from all over the world’ to be given a visa in order for them to live in their new ‘homeland’.
Holiday bookings for the one farmhouse on the Island are currently being taken through to [2025](https://torsa-island.co.uk/).
In other words, it’s a load of nonsense from the Mail as per usual.

The conservatives reelection strategy = suddenly terrorism is being financed again 😃 👍

People like this will do anything other than live in a country that already practices Sharia law.

Islam is territorial and expansionist. It knows no rules except its own. Expect the place to run on Sharia law, not UK or Scottish law, and expect it to be the cause of lots of trouble across the UK such as suicide bombings. I expect they will clear non-Muslims from the place. It’s going to be “fun” in every bad way you can imagine.

As a muslim I think this plan is nonsense. I doubt it will come to fruition to begin with, nor should it be allowed to occurs in any way.

mate, if you want religious extremism and hatred in Scotland just go to an Old Firm match like everybody else.

I mean….. nothing will arise from this other than him and a couple of his Islam buddies running into debt because they can’t finance the whole thing. Also the government should stop selling land Willy nilly

Hopefully the land owner has sense not to sell the land to them. Dunno why they’re trying this in the UK.

Can we just get rid of these people?
We have had enough cases which shows they are not a good fit here

….because what UK needs to most is more Bronze Age zealots in power.

I saw “Scottish island” and wrongly assumed it was some remote, difficult to reach place. It’s 500m from mainland Scotland ffs, how is this idea even being entertained.
(Not that it would be any better if it was in the Shetlands mind you)

His faith is irrelevant. He’s managed to raise 3 million quid on the back of a vague intention. Got to admire his style.

If he wanted an Islamic homeland he should’ve stayed in his Islamic homeland.

Hope he and his supports get cancer and have a painful diagnosis and shrivel into a dark hole

Just the other day, a group of muslims ferociously attack a poor police woman, beating her half to death repeatedly punching her in the face and this sub as well as the muslims in manchester took the criminal scums side. Now we have another group of muslims that want to implement shariah law in the UK. When will this sub and this country come to its senses?

So it’s just a standard grift.
The Island is currently for sale via [Savills](https://search.savills.com/property-detail/gbedruedr230020) for offers over £1.5m, with no notice of being under offer or any talks.
Holiday bookings for the one farmhouse on the Island are currently being taken through to [2025](https://torsa-island.co.uk/).
