GB News presenter Patrick Christys has issued a stark warning, asserting that the UK is on the brink of facing a significant threat from Islamic terrorism. Speaking in response to the devastating New Orleans attack, Christys pointed to the resurgence of groups like ISIS and Al-Qaeda as clear indicators that the West must brace itself for further violence.
“This isn’t just an American issue,” Christys declared. “We’ve been warned repeatedly by MI5 and MI6. The terror networks are regrouping, and it’s only a matter of time before the UK becomes a target.”
Christys criticized what he sees as political correctness hampering the UK’s ability to tackle radicalization effectively. “There’s always a rush to avoid stating the obvious,” he said. “But we need to be honest: ISIS is back, and their ideology continues to poison vulnerable minds across the globe.”
He also noted the role of online platforms in spreading extremist content, stating that authorities must act swiftly to prevent the internet from becoming a “breeding ground for radicalization.”
Reflecting on the New Orleans attack, Christys stressed the urgency of bolstering the UK’s security measures. “We’re seeing the same patterns—individuals flagged as threats but left unchecked until it’s too late. How many more times does this need to happen before we take the necessary precautions?”
Christys’s warning comes amidst growing concerns over high-profile threats to events in Europe, including the Champions League and German Christmas markets, as well as intelligence pointing to increased terrorist activity.
Patrick Christys left viewers with a sobering message: “We cannot afford complacency. The New Orleans attack should serve as a wake-up call for us here in the UK. If we don’t act now, we risk repeating the same tragic mistakes.”
With the chilling reality of resurgent terror groups looming large, Christys’s call for vigilance echoes growing public concern. The question remains: Is the UK prepared for what may come?
