Make Islamophobia a criminal offence through an Act of Parliament.

Petition Details

Islamophobia is continuously rising in the United Kingdom. People of Muslim heritage do not feel safe in carrying out their daily day-to-day activities. The UK government must take an action in order to protect a minority which is suffering a persistent threat of violence.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about Islamophobia, but we're not sure exactly how you'd like the law to be changed.

There are already some laws on "hate crime", including crimes where the perpetrator is motivated by the victim's religion. You can find out more here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
