Would Ruby Begum have apologized if she hadn’t been caught? What do you think?
“Met police officer apologises for racist posts about ‘dirty Zionist’ Jews,” Jewish News, October 21, 2024 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A Metropolitan Police officer has apologised for posting offensive tweets about Jewish people and non-Muslims, but denied they warranted her dismissal.
Pc Ruby Begum, 29, admitted during a police misconduct hearing on Monday that she used offensive language such as “dirty Zionists. Hell is waiting” while serving as a special constable.
She also admitted using the term “kuffar” to refer to non-believers, saying: “Kuffar lips have been all over my mug, there is no way I’m using that thing again.”

Around 25,000 posts were made between 2013 and 2019 under the Twitter username @ruby_beee and Ms Begum has been accused of failing to disclose this handle twice during vetting processes in 2014 and 2016.The hearing was told accusations against Ms Begum that she had held an interest in extremist preachers and had failed to disclose her links to a jihadi woman living inside a so-called Islamic State caliphate in Syria had been dropped over a lack of evidence.
Ms Begum gained widespread recognition in 2020 after a photo of her facing down anti-lockdown protesters in London went viral.
But in 2021, a Mail on Sunday article revealed her controversial posts on Twitter.
Ms Begum, who was raised in a Muslim household in east London, admitted on Monday that she had used discriminatory language when describing Arabs, people from Pakistan and non-Muslims, with one post referring to the 2014 beheading of Alan Henning at the hands of “Jihadi John”: “You lot saying free Alan Henning. Remember the Muslim brothers and sisters imprisoned by Kuffar.”
She also used a shortened version of the word Pakistani, a comment she denied was racist and was instead her way of identifying a group of people.
When asked if there a police officer should ever be using that word, Ms Begum said: “Not on duty, no”, adding: “It depends on the context and it’s about intent and ownership … some say it’s not racist and use it as a shortening of the word Pakistani.”
Asked again if a police officer should ever use the term, she said “no they shouldn’t” and added: “I wouldn’t use it now.”
Ms Begum also made a series of derogatory posts about Jewish people, writing: “Dirty Zionists. Hell is waiting” and “Zionists have no heart”.
When asked about these comments, she said she did not believe all Jewish people were Zionists and that her comments were about the Israeli government and the deaths of Palestinians.
She told the panel: “I had a problem with the Israeli government and systematic inequalities. I’ve seen anti-Zionist Jewish people and never equated them.
“I didn’t think it was a term of offence. I heard Jeremy Corbyn say it in Parliament and thought it was OK.
“If I was describing Jewish people, I would just say Jewish people. I have nothing against Jewish people. I have no hate towards that group.”…

Will she be fired? How can she possibly be kept on? “Kuffar lips have been all over my mug, there is no way I’m using that thing again.” should be enough to get her fired.
rShe can always get a job as a security guard at a mosque.
Ray Jarman says
I would agree with your statement if it was the US or maybe even Canada but in the UK where the government is so far to the left, this anti-Semitic follower of the pedophilic mass murdering monster will retain her position. I do think that certain branches of the British government should be performing a better job of background investigating for these professions but that would also be considered Islamophobic. I feel sorry for my British friends with whom I worked at NATO, especially those at High Wickham where I was posted temporarily from time to time.
Spiro says
She will not be fired
She will not be reprimanded
She made a meaningless apology
Who knows she might get promoted
Get used to it UK this is your future
under your new superiors you allowed to stay

Welcome to Britain today folks.
How many more of her despicable attitude are there as yet hidden?
The rot has set in deep.
The islamic infection has taken hold.
The caliphatic cancer has begun to spread.
The UK is literaly being eaten from the inside out, by medevial minded monsters & brain washed hate robots of the desert death cult.
Yet still silence. Because to speak out is VERY dangerous in Britain today……..

Tragically true.

She not sorry.

She is…. that she got exposed
gravenimage says
Yep.
somehistory says
She’ll likely keep her job. And if I worked where she does, no way would I put my lips on her dirty mug.
She’s okay with a man being beheaded because some mozlums are in prison. It doesn’t matter that they may have committed crimes of rape or terrorism; it only matters that they are mozlum and that makes the beheading of a non-mozlum okay with her.
And having links to a terrorist with isis in Syria should be enough to keep her off the police force. But, she’ll likely keep her job.
Ray Jarman says
Somehistory, I could not agree more with your assessment. I do find the word, Paki, to be acceptable especially having heard a tailor in Islamabad refer to his countrymen as Pakis.
somehistory says
Thank you, Ray. You are a wealth of information. Just about every ethnic/national group is called by some harmless nickname, and I see nothing wrong with shortening pakistani to paki..
This mozlum didn’t think she should call them pakis on duty, but if not, why not?
One of my sisters-in-law said years ago, although she lived in Tampa, she was a Floridian, not a “…….” Evidently someone had referred to her that way and I can clearly see why she objected.

The irony is… when the furor over her echoing the word ‘Kuffar’ which is way worse than using the N word, diminishes- guess who will be blamed for pursuing the justified call for her dismissal- why the Jews, of course. And I would bet she’s bigoted and hateful enough to use those accusations herself. Paging J O’keefe.

I have no doubt that you are right on what comes next.

Would I be mistaken in guessing that she’s from Bangladesh – the latest country to overtly convert to jihad?

Ms Begun said: “Kuffar lips have been all over my mug, there is no way I’m using that thing again.”
All over? Including the handle and the bottom (inside and outside) of the mug? How did the long-tongued kuffar accomplish this? Is the mug made of a non-porcelain material that cannot be washed clean of kuffar cooties?

UK: Muslim cop apologizes for posts about ‘dirty Zionist’ Jews, also spoke of Muslims ‘imprisoned by Kuffar’
……………………………
She *should* be fired and deported–and her family, Mosque, and community investigated. But she probably won’t be. Just glad she was called out at all. How many more Mulslim police are there just like this in Britain?
SC says
She needs to be stripped of her right of abode in the UK and get thrown out with nothing butvthe clothes on her back.
Mr Ian Harris says
There used to be stringent enquiries for any would be PC including family, financial etc. Now with the police enthusiastically recruiting ethnics this person fits the bill, and is why the Met have ignored the Muslim hate marches which tie up the capital every weekend, whilst the police sit on their arses looking for non crime hate crimes.
Patricia Bahra says
She has radical beliefs and these will not change .she sounds un remorseful She will not be fired , fear of racism. Just imagine if it was a white cop
Two tier again at its finest

Also in the UK, Labour socialist black councillor, Ricky Jones has been given bail until his trial in January
He was one of the very few leftist turds arrested during the Summer riots for calling for people on the right to have their throats cut.
While British people jailed for even just throwing insults were told they would never get bail if the pleaded not guilty encouraging them to plead guilty. Then out of the blue extremely harsh sentences were imposed in some case of 2 to 3 years.
I promise you this charge will be dropped on some technicality prior to January.
Main stream media not mentioning it.
gravenimage says
Horrifying–he is a threat if out on bail.
James Lincoln says
So, is Pc Ruby Begum going to treat Jews and muslims equally under the law?
gravenimage says
Nope.

‘Apology’ won’t do. Seing herself from the Force will. Would be the start
