Proceeding contribution from Lord Falconer of Thoroton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 11 October 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill.


Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

My Lords, yes, I am and the argument that the noble Lord must deal is that the statement, ““I urge you to hate all Christians or Muslims”” is certainly not covered by existing law, when it is stated to supporters, rather than the people whom you are seeking to terrify.
