Another absolute pile of poop article in the Spectator 💩
Great response from @SteveBakerHW 👊🏽
“I am proud to represent thousands of British Muslims, around one in six of my electors. I know they suffer discrimination and hate and I won’t stand for it”

Hate crime, England and Wales, 2021 to 2022 - https://t.co/fBFrxNKUC2. It is frightening to analyse the latest ⁦@ukhomeoffice⁩ figures which show that Muslims victims make up 42% (3,459) of all recorded religious hate crime. ⁦⁦@WMPolice⁩ https://t.co/GRyewDrT6K

The MCB has written to the Indian High Commissioner regarding the statement on 19th September regarding recent events in Leicester, we call for a just view on events and to address the deeper seated issue of #Hinduvta extremism. #Leicester

@CGreenUK Having such representation at the top doesnt mean the Tories are representative of the country

Labour has 41 MPs that are BAME whereas you have a mere 21

Labour has the highest number of women MPs with 104 of its 199 MPs (52%) v Tories (24%)

Think you are way behind, mate

[Mohammad Nādir Razā @nadir_raza12]

@CGreenUK Delivered what exactly?

The biggest cost of living crisis in living memory.

40 hospitals promised - Where are they?

High speed rail for the North - 6 years on its not even approved. Where’s that?

Pledge on starter homes - £192m spent but no starter homes built

You’ve slacked

Honoured to have our paper published in @Religions_MDPI special issue with an analysis of how #Islamophobia contributed to a #COVID19 syndemic & disparities

No.10's Boycott of the @MuslimCouncil is disgraceful.

The days when Conservative Governments could prop up Muslim organisations based on 1/2 people, funded for their own purposes is over!

Every community has a right to be heard by their government and so do British Muslims.

[Yasmin Qureshi MP @YasminQureshiMP]

As Chair of @appghajjumrah I'm very concerned by the implications of changes to the booking system for thousands of potential Hajj pilgrims across the country. In the last week, we've been making representations to relevant parties including the @UK_CAA

Did you you know public consultation on how the official UK Covid enquiry should be run ENDS on 7th April?

The government have kept this awfully quiet - I can't think why.

Please have your say. Make your voice heard.

Please RT 🙏💙

The Minister was rightly appalled that 3 yrs on the govts own appointed adviser on Islamaphobia hasn’t been engaged ,resourced or responded to
2 yrs on govt hasn’t met their own advisory group on Anti-Muslim hatred
And 4 years on still not adopted ⁦a definition
#Islamophobia

[Strengthening Faith Institutions (SFI) @SFITogether]

Chris Whitty, Chief Medical Officer for England visited one of our SFI Faith Centres, Al Mustafa Centre in Bradford.

At the centre he learnt about their work to address health inequalities amongst Muslim communities amidst Covid-19.

[Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP @TanDhesi]

Learnt about the positive work nationally of Dawat-e-Islami during another visit to their Faizan-e-Madinah Slough centre in Langley.

Discussed issues faced by the community locally, but also thanked them for their amazing charitable work, especially during the pandemic.

[Sayeeda Warsi @SayeedaWarsi]

Two people born & raised in the Uk ,commit the same crime & yet one can be stripped of their citizenship because of heritage & the other not
We must start the rolling back of this divisive practice of stripping of citizenship
All British citizens must be equal before the law

[Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP @TanDhesi]

Choice of words matters and Boris Johnson’s history of demeaning racist remarks has set the tone for his Govt’s indifferent approach to tackling it.

Given increased prevalence of such incidents, where is PM’s long-promised independent inquiry into Islamophobia in the Tory Party?

[Sayeeda Warsi @SayeedaWarsi]

Solidarity with @Nus_Ghani✊🏽
Calling out your own , calling out racism & taking a principled stance is brave & bold but never easy.
Nus has a long & proud history of fighting antisemitism & she has bravely fought for the rights of #Uyghurs
On #Islamophobia now she must be heard

Well said @NazShahBfd

[Naz Shah MP @NazShahBfd]

In 2011, the former chair of the Conservative Party @SayeedaWarsi said, Islamophobia has passed the “dinner-table test", a decade later, in 2021, I am saying Islamophobia has now passed the "Mainstream Media test”.

It is time for change. #IslamophobiaAwarenessMonth

[Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP @TanDhesi]

Another broken promise!

Where is the independent inquiry on Islamophobia in the Conservative Party, promised more than 2 years ago on national television by Boris Johnson and his Health Secretary?
