Great British Energy BillContribution
The fact is that a huge number of our fellow citizens are in real financial distress every day of every week, and the Government need to take immediate action to help them. I am concerned about the impact of yet more austerity on community cohesion. As a British Muslim and person of colour, I was alarmed when I heard one of the candidates in the Tory leadership contest say that 1 million migrants should be deported and that Muslims should be arrested for saying, “Allahu Akbar,” which just means, “God is the greatest,” because I know who will be the real beneficiaries of those comments.
