Protect our British way of life
We call upon the Government to protect us in our own country against those who would enforce the religious fundamentalism and medieval culture of another land within our own shores, by enforcing existing laws or passing new laws a) to ensure that religious leaders may not encourage their followers to ignore or flout the laws of this country simply because they do not accord with their own radical and fundamentalist beliefs, b) to deny the legal status of sharia law, c) to ban the wearing of head coverings so that faces cannot be seen, d) to enable British citizens to wear symbols in support of those serving in the Armed Forces, and e) by extending the definition and powers under the Public Order Act 1986 and the Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006 whereby those groups defined by their employment such as the Armed Forces and Police Service are also protected.
