- Proud to say @UKLabour have adopted the @APPGBritMuslims definition of Islamophobia. We have seen the grave dangers of allowing Islamophobia to go unchallenged and therefore words are not enough. This is a positive step in the right direction. #IslamophobiaDefined
- APPG STATEMENT: Recent divisive comments by the Home Secretary are leaving British Muslim communities in the United Kingdom feeling unsafe.
- It is great to see the @LibDems have taken practical steps to tackle the scourge of Islamophobia by adopting the @APPGBritMuslims definition of Islamophobia. In the wake of #ChristChurch we need to now see action and not just words! @EdwardJDavey
00:00 - 'We often hear these stories every year that Muslims want to cancel Christmas. ... As I always say, we British Muslims are sat celebrating with our families, eating our Turkey, albeit our turkey being slightly spicier.' @SayeedaWarsi #AVeryMerryMuslimChristmas
- 'The report by @APPGBritMuslims is clear, Islamophobia is not about shutting down debate on Islam but about the protection of British Muslims.' @SayeedaWarsi #IslamophobiaDefined
00:00 - Today we have written to @BorisJohnson regarding the recent EU ruling on the #HijabBan. The judgement sets a dangerous precedent for its impact on Muslims but also Jews, Sikhs, Christians and people of other faiths.
- MUST WATCH: The former Attorney General Dominic Grieve QC MP addresses the critics of the @APPGBritMuslims definition of Islamophobia. #IslamophobiaDefined
00:00 - Our vice-chair:@TanDhesi ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 Impeccably describing the reality faced by all minorities in the UK, due to those that spread hate. Probably the most compelling case about the dark reality to Boris Johnson’s comments about Muslim Women. #PMQs #IslamophobiaDefinedMPs applaud, as Labour's Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi tells Boris Johnson to apologise for "derogatory and racist remarks" comparing Muslim women who wear a hijab to "bank robbers and letterboxes" #PMQs updates: bbc.in/2zMzMJG
00:00 - A woman who has become the first hijab-wearing judge in the UK says she wants young Muslims to know they can achieve anything they put their minds to. @RaffiaArshad1 congratulations 👏
