Tahir Ali MP 'Islamophobia Awareness Month' or not - we do not, and MUST NOT, have blasphemy laws in our country.
It’s depressing beyond measure, both that Keir Starmer didn’t simply reject Tahir Ali MP’s outrageous proposal to reintroduce blasphemy laws in the UK… …and that the online pushback here consists almost entirely of blue-tick bigots. Where are the liberal secular voices?
How fitting that Jason Cowley’s lamentable editorship of The New Statesman should conclude by giving a platform to far-right Trump apologist Christopher Caldwell. Under Cowley reactionary tendencies - including grotesque terf polemics - predominated. Here’s to a new era.
