Proceeding contribution from Jim McGovern (Labour) 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
On examples, in a previous debate in the House on the subject, my hon. Friend the Member for Tooting (Mr. Khan) gave the example of the British National party, which advised its members to put posters in their windows. It knew that it could not get away with saying, ““Jews out”” or ““Sikhs out””, but it knew that it could say, ““Muslims out””. That is a good example. If the BNP is exploiting such a loophole, Members on both sides of the House should take every opportunity to close it.
