The Methodist Church has long valued and supported the work of the Inter Faith Network. At a time when there is an increase of incidents of discrimination, particularly in terms of antisemitism and islamophobia, it is more important than ever that those committed to working…

'Ms [Yvette] Cooper said there was an important role for government to build community and challenge hate crime. She believed the closure of the Inter Faith Network was the wrong approach at a time when building relationships was more important than ever.'

Wonderful to see interfaith solidarity for the petition challenging the Govt reneging on Inter Faith Network grant funding. #FundInterFaithNetwork Sign the petition! Show your support #interfaith

Last week, Ministers announced the extraordinarily stupid decision - on ridiculous grounds - not to provide Inter Faith Network with funding for 2023-4, promised last July, thus ensuring its closure, at a time when everyone can see the urgent need for more inter-faith dialogue.

A dark day for British Muslims:
1. 335% ⬆️ in Islamophobia
2. Tory donor, investor in GB News & founder of Unherd found retweeting virulent Islamophobia
3. Politicians promoting conspiracy theories about 'Islamists'
4. Inter Faith Network forced to close by Gove due to Muslim trustee

So just today we've had Braverman claiming Sharia law is taking over; Anderson claiming Sadiq Khan is controlled by Islamists; Truss nodding along to Steve Bannon lauding Tommy Robinson; and Gove pulling the plug on the national inter-faith network cos it works with Muslims.

Thank you Debra Allcock Tyler

*My opinion piece on Gove's disgraceful decision*

Michael Gove has singled me out as a reason to withhold funding from Inter Faith Network

He claims 'it is deeply concerning' I am one of its trustees

On why this is nonsense and the dangerous precedent he sets:

During the month in which Muslims around the world commemorate the birth of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, I gave a talk at my local mosque about his relationship with #nature & how he gave rights in sharia to the natural world #Ecology #Biodiversity

What a brilliant day for #BIMALifesavers2023 where hundreds of volunteer HCPs have taught CPR across the UK.

80% of cardiac arrests happen in our homes, and communities like ours can be vulnerable to poor outcomes.

Today is a small step towards making a difference there -…

Following our complaint (Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM)), a false racist smear about British Pakistani men from the Home Secretary has been corrected.

This should be much bigger news.

Powerful evidenced-led report:

'40% of the mainstream TV coverage (excluding GB News) did not provide context to the Home Secretary’s remarks by referencing her own department’s report on the topic'
