UK launches review to provide working definition of Islamophobia
UK has launched a new review led by a former Opposition Conservative Party minister into anti-Muslim hate to provide the Labour Party government with a working definition of Islamophobia. Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner said on Friday that former attorney general Dominic Grieve will bring his years of legal and government expertise to the role, which will also support a wider stream of work to tackle the «unacceptable incidents» of anti-Muslim hate crimes hitting the highest number on record in 2024.
The new working group has been tasked to deliver a definition of anti-Muslim hatred, referred to as Islamophobia, within six months.
«The rise in anti-Muslim hate crime is unacceptable and has no place in our society,» said Rayner, Secretary of State in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG).
«That's why we've committed to defining Anti-Muslim Hatred/Islamophobia, as a crucial step forward in tackling it and creating a society where everyone feels safe and welcome,» she said.
Her ministry said the new working group will advise the government on how to best understand, quantify and define prejudice, discrimination, and hate crime targeted against Muslims.
