TAKE ACTION AGAINST BNP, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

The Ramadhan Foundation calls on the
Government to identify from the leaked BNP Public Sectors workers
including Police officers, Teachers and Army staff to ensure that they
are dismissed from their jobs.
Continued membership of a fascist and
racist party is not compatible with the values and ethos of public
service. Further more these
people will not be able to meet the requirement under the Race
Relations Amendment Act to promote good relations between different
communities and provide a fair and equal service to minority
communities.
We pray tribute and thanks to the new Chief
Constable of Greater Manchester police Peter Fahy for his forthright
and clear condemnation of the BNP and support for equality.
Mr. Mohammed Shafiq, Chief Executive of the
Foundation comments:
“I hope the Government seriously outlaws
membership of the BNP for Public sector workers including teachers,
police officers, army and civil servants.
How can these racist thugs provide equal
service to minority communities when they promote fascism and hatred
for these people in our diverse society, I pay tribute to Peter Fahy
for his strong words of support against the BNP, he is a breath of
fresh air. Let’s see action now
from the Government.
Now is the time for real action to prove
that there can be no place for racists and fascists in our public
services”
END
