New Marxist Labour pushing for Religious Hatred Law

Despite two previously failed attempts, the Marxists of the New labour Party are desperate to push through a Religious and Racial Hatred Law, to go with the many other equally repressive laws we have.
The new offence gives equal protection to all faiths. Jews and Sikhs are already covered by race hate laws.
Critics say the reintroduced plans - which cover words or behaviour intended or likely to stir up religious hatred - will stifle free speech. The Racial and Religious Hated Bill would create a new offence of incitement to religious hatred and would apply to comments made in public or in the media, as well as through written material.

Religious hatred is defined in the Bill as "hatred against a group of persons defined by reference to religious belief or lack of religious belief" - showing it will also cover atheists.

The maximum penalty for anybody convicted of the new offence would be seven years imprisonment.

The plans are exactly the same as those opposed in the House of Lords before the general election, with some peers claiming it could put freedom of speech at risk.

This time they form a stand alone Bill, instead of being part of a much bigger Bill.

Mr Goggins refused to say whether ministers would use the Parliament Act to force the plans through the Lords but he stressed Labour had promised the new laws in its election manifesto.

Conservative shadow Home Secretary David Davis said the proposed law would "seriously undermine freedom of speech" and would be "massively counter-productive".

"Religion, unlike race, is a matter of personal choice and therefore appropriate for open debate," he argued.

Aggravated crimes against religious groups were already protected through existing legislation, he said.

"Whilst this new law would technically prevent what many people may regard as reasonable criticism of devil worshippers and religious cults."

Liberal Democrat MP Evan Harris argued the plans would jeopardise precious freedom of expression.
Devil worshippers and atheists are also covered. The whole law is in fact a huge bad JOKE and is only being pushed because Labour in its election manifesto promised Muslims in Britain that they would bring this shokcing travesty of a law in. It must be opposed at all costs! The Nationalist Alliance totally opposes THIS and all repressive laws and demands the restoration of FREE SPEECH!                                   Britain's millions of Muslims -
                                                                                               Marxist Labour needs their votes!
