SIKHS CANNOT STAND WITH HATE !!! As a Sikh it’s your duty to stand with those who are being targeted because of their faith, race or colour ! No Muslim should feel unsafe when they have Sikhs in the neighbourhood!! #NoToHate #Sikh #Muslim #Peace

Britain has a proud tradition of free speech and peaceful protest – those must always be protected. But violence and hatred targeted at minority communities is never justified and always abhorrent. It is completely unacceptable that Muslim and asylum-seeker communities are

I’m appalled by scenes from Sunderland. Make no mistake, if your response to tragedy is to use it to commit violence, to abuse others, attack the Police and damage property you stand for nothing except thuggery. It’s not protest. It’s crime and disorder. You don’t speak for

The BBC says: “Protesters target mosque”. Can you imagine saying “Protesters target synagogue? These are criminals. By platforming Farage, Oakeshott, Tice, Goodwin etc, the BBC normalised the far right. Now it legitimises them as so called “protesters” bbc.com/news/articles/…

We’ve now had verified reports of Muslims being punched, stabbed and attacked with acid in England in the space of a few days. What do you even say at this point. This is so scary and yet politicians remain silent.

I utterly condemn the far-right thuggery we have seen this weekend. Be in no doubt: those who have participated in this violence will face the full force of the law.

Are Muslims in Britain 'outsiders' or 'invaders'? A short thread on Muslim interaction with Britain: * Muslims began trading with Britain in the 7th century *Arabic inscription can be found on the Ballycotton cross dated to the 9th century

This is not protest, it is pure violence. We will have a standing army of public duty officers. We will ramp up criminal justice. We will apply criminal law online as well as offline. We will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on Muslim communities.

Gaza: In the largest and most shameful concentration camp of the 21st century, Israel is genociding the Palestinians one neighborhood at the time, one hospital at the time, one school at the time, one refugee camp at the time, one 'safe zone' at the time. With US and European

ℹ️ | We are seeing lots of videos being shared online that were filmed at previous protests or during previous incidents. There has been no disorder in London this weekend and the videos are likely being shared to mislead or to fuel tension.

The UN Human Rights Office (OHCHR) has condemned the Israeli force's "increasingly military response" in the occupied West Bank. The OHCHR says that the Israeli military's recent operation in the West Bank is being conducted "in a manner which violates international law".

Thank you Archbishop for receiving us, for your statements and genuine concern for all Palestinians including the beleaguered Christian community. Huge thanks to Sabeel-Kairos for arranging.

We're seeing a widening of policing powers to criminalise and control Muslim thought and identity The case against Marieha Hussain, charged with a hate crime for carrying a satirical placard at a pro-Palestine match, is one example It reinforces the idea of the Muslim threat

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza as “genocide” in some of the harshest public criticism of the country by a Saudi official since the start of the war.

The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for the Prime Minister of Israel for war crimes and crimes against humanity. So yesterday I asked: How can our government still be supplying his military with weapons?
