Proceeding contribution from Evan Harris (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill.


Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

Does the Minister therefore accept that if the British National party uses the word ““Muslims”” instead of ““Pakis””, as, sadly, it has done in the past, it could be successfully prosecuted under current law? Muslims are not therefore uncovered in that respect by the current law.
