George Galloway: 'Sinister Parallels of Hatred'
There are weeks to go before a general election and the main parties are struggling. Cue the filthy politics of scapegoating and divide and rule.
If it were only the fascists of the British National Party and their street-fighting associates in the English Defence League it would be bad enough.
But so widespread and respectable has demonising Britain’s Muslim and immigrant communities become that unscrupulous mainstream politicians are tempted to slide from the gutter into that sewer.
The ground is sadly fecund for them, fertilised by mountains of manure from not only the right but from people who consider themselves liberals. This is one of the especially pernicious features of Islamophobia - racism against Muslims.
