Mega Mosque Petition

It is of concern that the petition to stop the mega mosque on the London Olympic site remains, although the government has been urged to drop it. The petition which has been described as being supported by the British National Party and Neo Nazi groups states;

"We the Christian population of this great country England would like the proposed plan to build a Mega Mosque in East London Scrapped. This will only cause terrible violence and suffering and more money should go into the NHS."

What this "terrible violence and suffering" is considered to consist of is beyond by comprehension, but then racists do tend to be relatively brainless. Even though Black Information Link, Islamophobia Watch and MPACUK are amongst those questioning the petition, it’s supporters and its wording, the government has failed to respond to the situation.

So if you think that your vote for New Labour should not mean a vote for racism and Islamophobia, then email 10 Downing Street (webmaster@pmo.gov.uk) to request that these words be removed or failing that, the whole petition taken off line.

(My own blog lists an example of those sigining the petition, which Ive not posted here due to the racist nature of the wording used!)
