In May 2019, a group of 40 leading experts from a range of religious backgrounds wrote to the government warning it against adopting a proposed definition of Islamophobia.
Although various people have since spoken out in solidarity, including former Home Secretary Sajid Javid, confusion over the definition and its consequences still exists. That’s why we’ve created this helpful new resource, a briefing on the definition of Islamophobia, to help breakdown what the problems are with the proposed definition and suggests what should be done instead. The resource is free to download and print off, and can be sent to local MPs, councils and political organisations.
Defining Islamophobia
The definition of ‘Islamophobia’, as proposed by the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on British Muslims in November 2018, has already been adopted by various local councils across the country, and several political parties, including the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats, Plaid Cymru and the Scottish National Party.
However, the government has since rejected the definition, instead appointing Imam Qari Asim as an independent adviser to lead the work in proposing a new definition of Islamophobia.
Islamic blasphemy law
The APPG proposed defining Islamophobia as a form of ‘cultural racism’, which, if implemented, would protect Islam and Islamic culture from criticism, creating what would in effect be an Islamic blasphemy law. Government adviser Qari Asim has in the past also spoken of curtailing free speech in order that Islam could not be criticised.

I got a definition for ya right here. But it’s a visual aid.
Much better to prohibit the use of the term “Islamophobic”.
It’s a made-up PC thing anyway.
Do they have a definition for Christophobia? If not, they’re discriminatory...
The definition has no value in a nation that has freedom. The definition lonely matters in a despotic notion that criminalizes thought and opinion
Bitter clingers. Barry the CONstitutional scholar said so. Look at the “charter of negative liberties” sermon of that POS. He should’ve got a Nobel POS prize.
Bozos across the pond just don’t get it.
Rules of Engagement with Muslims -
1) if infidels are present, Sunni will unite with Shiite to enslave (economically, sexually), convert, and then annihilate the remaining infidels
2) if no infidels are present, Sunni will turn against Shiite until one or the other is annihilated
It’s not about childish fear. It’s about adult level conquest and consequences. And it’s been that way for centuries.
Islamaphobia??
I have NO Irrational Fear of Islam, it is a DISEASE that has Killed 1000 times more people than the Corona Virus and needs to be Eradicated from the Planet
Why is this kind of “phobia” defined by government rather than pyschologists? Is it a crime to have phobias? Do we also punish those that are afaraid of rabbits, or Monty Python for spreading rabbitphobia?
Read Robert Spencer’s book on Islamophobia.
We have good reason to fear *slam.
So when will the Archbishop of Canterbury be prosecuted for proselytizing his heresy?
Looking to pass laws against free speech. The protected class will now have no restrictions and the ability to have you locked up or sued in a court of law
A phobia is an irrational fear.
There’s nothing irrational about fearing millions of people who seek salvation by cutting your head off.

Sorry for the 2nd post.
Just think of the anti-rabbit hysteria generated by “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” where a white rabbit beheaded several knights of the Round Table with a powerful lunge and slashing bite.
Anyway, glad I’m on this side of the pond, where those who scream “Islamophobia!!!” have to reckon with a hundred million gun-owning infidels.
And those who scream “Allahu Akbar!!” over here can get sent to see Allah muy el quicko.
The term is fake.
I wonder if the people eradicated by Islam’s unprovoked aggression in North Africa, whose towns are all now world heritage sites, would be considered Islamophobic?
Just like Mohammad’s religion.
The Democrats standing with Islam want to disarm us.
