📣🚨The Free Speech Union is mounting a legal challenge against the Government over its official definition of Islamophobia — now repackaged as 'anti-Muslim hatred' — and its appointment of a new 'tsar' to punish people who fall foul of it.
This amounts to a Muslim blasphemy law via the back door. The definition is vague and subjective, and will be weaponised to silence legitimate criticism and debate about Islam, Muslims, and Islamic practices and history.
The FSU’s General Secretary, Lord Young of Acton, said: “This is the most serious threat to free speech the Government has come up with so far — the only area in which it’s achieving any success.
“If we don’t win this fight, tens of thousands of people a year could lose their jobs at the say-so of a Labour-appointed ‘tsar’. It’s dystopian.”
Public bodies will adopt this definition — despite it being non-statutory — with the same zeal the police have shown in investigating and recording non-crime hate incidents (NCHIs). It is predicted by one of the drafters of the definition that it could lead to around 20,000 reports of 'anti-Muslim hostility' a year. At present, the number of recorded anti-Muslim hate crimes is around 4,000.
In a free society, no religion should be shielded from legitimate criticism. This proposal places one faith above the rest.
The Free Speech Union is bringing a legal challenge on two grounds.
First, the definition relies on nebulous, legally undefined terms such as “negative and prejudicial stereotyping of Muslims”, making it incoherent and irrational — and ripe for weaponisation.
Second, adopting such a definition cuts across legislation already enacted by Parliament and therefore breaches the public law principle known as “occupying the field”. Under this established public law doctrine, new regulations, put in place by ministers, must not replace existing legislation. It is constitutionally unlawful. In this case, the body responsible for protecting Muslims from discrimination is the Equality and Human Rights Commission, not an anti-Muslim hostility 'tsar'.
Parliament voted to abolish blasphemy laws 18 years ago. We can't let this Government resurrect them via the back door.
This is one of the biggest battles the Free Speech Union has ever taken on in its six years — and we need your help. Judicial reviews are expensive, but this is a fight we felt we had to take on.

@dreamsweep @FondOfBeetles Uncooked & Dead
Great name for a fish shop - fully descriptive
English

@IamKarnak @FondOfBeetles Nope 😆, it is weird when you think about it though. Google it, it’s a thing, honestly!
I don’t make the rules on daft names in the UK, I just worked there 😜
English

@dreamsweep @FondOfBeetles Never heard "fresh fish" called "wet fish". Do you call butcher shops dead cow shops over there?
English

@FondOfBeetles Oh Emma! 🤣
A wet fish counter in a shop. Uncooked, dead fish. You know, like a fillet of haddock or salmon in the supermarket!
English

@FondOfBeetles I did didn’t I… well, it was selling wet fish at the front of a fish and chip shop, tbh I think I’m still traumatised by the smell! I got paid £5 for about 4 hours. That was good money back then.

@dreamsweep Yes yes body suits.
I feel you’ve kinda skipped over the first job…

@clairebubblepop That’s a strawman argument. Just because the mega rich are also morally in the wrong, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t care about everyone else getting funds from the tax payer illegitimately. Two things can both be true surely. Both are controlled by government. Both can be resolved.

@MartinSLewis 4 years at uni to get my nursing diploma and Public health nursing degree, you can’t do my job without both. 23 years in the job. Sounds great till you compare with my husband, a self taught builder who earns more than me.

@UKRunChat a question was asked on face book,
