This anti Muslim hate speech definition is chilling and is going to seriously shut down legitimate discussions and concerns about Islam - which let's be clear, isn't a religion or a race but IS an IDEOLOGY.
Didn't expect Daily Mail to be doing free branding.
Lower bills, protect the NHS and fund public services.
Can imagine why Lord Rothermere isn't so keen....

@Heccles94 I think the greens have betrayed their own values. Didn't hear any green values in the by election recently. Too determined to earn a particular vote.
It is only Tuesday, and this Government has already announced an official definition of Islamophobia, an Islamophobia tsar, and plans to push ahead today with restricting our ancient right to trial by jury โ all of which will stifle free speech in this country.
This is not governing in the national interest. What we are seeing is an attempt to reintroduce Britainโs blasphemy laws, 18 years after they were abolished by Parliament, and the biggest assault on English liberty โ particularly free speech โ in over 800 years.
This Government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and more bullish in its open disdain for free speech.
The fight for free speech has never been more important than it is today.
@DavidLammy Removing trial by jury is not going to make things better. It's our historical right and you shouldn't be taking it away. It was not in your manifesto. Oh wait, nothing that you lot are doing is in your manifesto.
@RichardBurgon What for? Freeing the Iranian people who are being slaughtered by the IRGC who Labour refuse to designate as a terrorist organisation?
They kill their own in discriminatory, and I don't see you calling for sanctions on IRGC! Dispicable.
You are wrong. According to the PM we have a long history of "free speech" in our nation. We are allowed to be critical of Islam, we are allowed to be honest about it. It is an ideology not a religion.
Nearly 1 in 2 stories about Muslims in UK media contains measurable bias. Thatโs not journalism - thatโs a systemic problem building hatred and division.
I welcomed the governmentโs adoption of a definition of Anti-Muslim Hostility and the announcement of an Independent Adviser, in the same way as there is a non-statutory definition of Antisemitism and an Independent Adviser.
I called on the government to take action against those who spread disinformation and conspiracies about Muslim communities
@AlistairCarns Surely making sure parents have the money they need is more dignified for families. Having the highest tax burden ever is causing this problem. This govt has it all wrong. Secure the borders, send illegals back, bring down taxes.
@Ed_Miliband@UKIFDA@CMAgovUK They will take absolutely no notice, just like the govt. More green taxes making us scream harder for no reason. It's a big green money making hoax!
@gmpolice can you tell us why these men were allowed to do this even though it is illegal to do so? Or were they working for Manchester police under cover?
A crazy scene at the Iranian counterprotest last night near the Islamic Centre in Manchester
To pro ayatollah supporters chased towards Iranian people walking away from the event last night
Manchester police did nothing and at one point just said โokโ โฆ..

I Timothy 2:1-4 NKJV
[1] Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, [2] for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
