Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 31 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill 2005-06.


Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

My hon. Friend is right. The problem is that all beliefs have their adherents, unless the belief is dead and wrong. In those circumstances, attacking the belief must undermine the status of the adherent. That is the Bill’s most fundamental flaw.
