ENGLISH DEFENCE LEAGUE

Motion Text

That this House notes with concern the activities of the English Defence League (EDL) which is trying to spread fear, hatred and violence against Britain's ethnic minority community; further notes that the EDL has planned a rally in Leicester on 9 October 2010; recognises that this rally has the potential to be provocative and to threaten race relations and community cohesion; and congratulates the Hope Not Hate Campaign for its efforts to maintain peace and unite communities.
