Lord Singh of Wimbledon (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 September 2024

Debate

Anti-Muslim Prejudice and Hate Crime

Contribution

My Lords, there are no comparative statistics to show that Muslims suffer more from irrational prejudice than, say, any member of the Hindu, Sikh or Buddhist faiths. To borrow from Shakespeare, if a member of those other faiths is cut, do they not bleed? Will the Minister confirm that the Government will be even-handed in looking at the needs and concerns of all religions and those of no faith?
