St Albans Interfaith League and support for inter-faith initiatives

That this House commends the work of St Albans Interfaith League (SAIL); congratulates Herts Together for organising the Herts Standing Against Hate event in St Albans on Friday 15 May; thanks the Lord Lieutenant of Hertfordshire, the Chief Constable of Hertfordshire, faith leaders and all who volunteered their time for their support in facilitating this successful event; recognises the launch of the countywide ‘One County, Many Voices, Shared Future’ initiative to celebrate Hertfordshire diversity and strengthen community connections; condemns rising levels of antisemitism and Islamophobia, and especially the recent violent attacks on minority communities across the UK; regrets the loss of some inter-faith networks and initiatives in recent years; praises the leadership shown by faith and community leaders in St Albans who have made a joint statement entitled 5 Principles for Dialogue: why Jews and Muslims refuse to be enemies and are working together to educate, counter misunderstanding and forge community cohesion in the city and neighbouring areas by jointly attending schools and community events; and calls on the Government to actively engage with and promote new inter-faith initiatives with a view to emulating them across the UK.
