Proceeding contribution from Lord Lester of Herne Hill (Liberal Democrat) 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, is the noble Lord aware that there is a pending prosecution—and I shall not refer to its details, because I am keen to observe the proper rules—involving ““X””, who is alleged to have incited his followers to stir up hatred against ethnic Muslims by using religion in an anti-Islamic hate speech as a surrogate. Is he aware of that prosecution, as has been reported in the newspapers?
