There has been a huge increase in anti-Muslim incidents since the murder of a British soldier in Woolwich, an inter-faith charity has said.
Faith Matters, which runs a helpline, said they had received more than 150 calls since Wednesday's attack, up from a daily average of six.
A number of people have been arrested after allegedly offensive comments were made on social media websites.

Since the attack, four people have been charged by police after allegedly offensive messages were posted on social media websites.
Benjamin Flatters, a 22-year-old from Lincoln, will appear before magistrates on Saturday charged with making malicious comments on Facebook.
An unemployed 28-year-old has been charged by Sussex Police after allegedly posting an offensive message also on Facebook.
Michaela Turner, 23, has been charged with allegedly sending a "grossly offensive" message on Facebook, Hampshire Constabulary said.
And a 19-year-old man form Woking has been charged with improper use of public electronic communications in connection with comments placed on a social media website.

If the government there does not allow semi-anonymous and otherwise ineffective outlets like making blustering comments on websites, then people will find more effective outlets. I sincerely hope this situation rapidly shifts to one where muslims of all demeanors fear to walk the streets anywhere in the UK. After all, if ordinary non-muslims feel that way, its only right that non-muslims return the favor.
PRECISELY! If the pressure is building up too high, the last damned thing you do is spike the relief valve...
They are arresting average citizens for voicing thier oppinions yet they save the butchers so they can ask them why they did what they did and how can we help them love us.
England never had free speech. Nothing short of an American-style revolution that frog marches Parliment into the Thames and Muslims through the Chunnel will save England. Demographics decide the future, not the news of the day. England surrendered its religion and its history. Nature will fill that vacuum eventually. England is dead.
Completely agree, England is dead.
What if everyone using social media in the UK decided to post a message condemning the silent complicity of the Muslim population, and they all did it at the same time?
Sure hope not.
Grover Norquist’s wet dream would be to jail anyone here in the US that didn’t kow-tow to Islam
Shame on UK govt...and good that UK citizens are waking up
Off the Cliffs of Dover would be better.
How many of those were beheadings?
Yeah, thought so...
There England has it. Are we going to bow down to Islam, as Europe has done? Did Obama bow down for our whole nation? Or just for his own muslim a$$?
I think the PC crowd should just accept lone-wolf, self-radicalized Sudden Anti Jihad attacks as the norm.
Symmetry, if not justice.
To me,the real story here is that people can be arrested because other people are offended.

Yeah and coming to a blue city and or state in the near future. I am thinking New York City, Los Angeles, California or Colorado.
Good. We need some of that here. If the Gubbmint won’t protect American citizens maybe we should “convince” aspiring martyrs to go home. If that works we might try it with illegals, too.

Britain has descended into the depths. How the mighty have fallen. The once-famous bastion of political criticism has now become a slave-state where it is illegal to make any disparaging comments about islam. How sad.
Here’s what I have to say to the Muslim punk that cut the soldiers head off with a machete:
