I've posted on this story before .. but now there's been new life breathed into it, thanks to fresh developments.

I'm referring to the attempts to so subvert education in some Birmingham (UK) schools that Muslim pupils attending them are taught the most extreme pro-Islamic 'standards' possible.

This has been rumbling on for a number of months. Now, it's reached a political head, because two senior Conservative Ministers have been in a public dispute over which Department's responsibility it was to guard against 'extremist subversion' in schools ... the Home Office (headed by Theresa May), or the Education Department, headed by Michael Gove.

This has all led to Theresa May's Special Adviser resigning from her job.

Fiona Cunningham, the Home Secretary's special adviser, resigns after the two Cabinet ministers traded blows over who was to blame for the failure to stop the rise of extremism in schools.

Michael Gove, the Education Secretary, was forced to apologise to David Cameron, after an extraordinary public row with the Home Secretary over Islamic extremism in state schools.

Mr Gove was ordered to write a formal letter of apology to the Prime Minister and a separate letter apologising to the Home Office official in charge of counter-terrorism, who had been the target of his criticisms in the press.

One of Theresa May’s closest colleagues, her special adviser Fiona Cunningham, was also forced to resign after a Downing Street inquiry found she had been the source of an acidic briefing against Mr Gove last week.

No 10 announced the disciplinary action in an attempt to bring to an end a crisis that infuriated Mr Cameron and overshadowed last week’s Queen’s Speech. Mr Cameron acted after receiving the findings of an internal investigation into the row, led by the Cabinet Secretary, Sir Jeremy Heywood.

The row erupted after Mr Gove briefed The Times newspaper — as an anonymous “source” — over the “Trojan Horse” plot to Islamicise secular state schools in Birmingham. He accused the Home Office of failing to “drain the swamp” of extremists and criticised Charles Farr, Mrs May’s counter-terrorism adviser, who is in a relationship with Miss Cunningham.

When The Times went to print on Tuesday night, Mrs May hit back. The Home Secretary’s office published what had been a private Cabinet letter she sent to Mr Gove suggesting his department had failed to act over alleged plots to take over state schools in Birmingham.

Such letters between Cabinet colleagues are normally kept private. Mrs May’s decision to publish on the Home Office website at 12.24am on Wednesday has caused concern in Whitehall. It has now been taken down.

The Prime Minister was said to have been “deeply frustrated” that the row between two of his most senior ministers should have burst into the public domain on the day of the Queen’s Speech.

It overshadowed the morning’s radio and television reports on the Government’s announcement of its proposed legislation for the next year.

THIS is what happens when inertia takes the place of action where it's needed. Political infighting .. political damage .. and, I think at the heart of it all, slavish deference to political correctness, where nobody wants to act in a way interpretable as 'racist' or 'bigoted'.

Inspectors have found that a Birmingham school has 'failed to protect' students from Muslim extremists and education chiefs were warned about 'Trojan-Horse' style plots six years ago, it emerged today.

Police, the Government and school inspectors are investigating alleged attempts by radicals to seize control of 20 schools in the city after claims of plot emerged in March.

Ofsted inspectors has reportedly already found one of them was subject to an Islamist takeover and said its 'work to keep students safe is inadequate' and its 'equalities policy is not fit for purpose'.

It has also emerged that Tahir Alam, the alleged Trojan Horse mastermind and chair of governors at a school being probed by Ofsted, has been working as an school inspector himself since 2010.

The scandal broke in March when it was claimed a plot by hardline Muslims to seize control of Birmingham schools, called 'Operation Trojan Horse', was underway.

A leaked letter apparently told Islamists how to remove management and replace them with people sympathetic to their cause.

Since then 21 schools have been probed and a report by inspectors is expected in the next week.

Sky News claims one school, which cannot be named, has already been found to be failing. The document says: 'Key safeguarding procedures are not followed. Too little is done to keep students safe from the risks associated with extremist views.

This is why you can never be TOO alert, or TOO vigilant, when considering potential (or actual !) subversions against Western societies.

Look forward to seeing that new thread, Tyr, if of course you have time to spare for it. In the example I've devoted this thread to, the history of this stretches back to 2008. Only now is it becoming such a major issue in our media.
