UK: Call to muslims to end co-operation with Police
An activist from the Respect Party has urged British Muslims in east London to stop co-operating with police. Yvonne Ridley, who became a Muslim after her kidnap by the Taliban in Afghanistan five years ago, has accused the police of being heavy-handed. She told BBC News British Muslims should "withdraw all support" for the Metropolitan Police. Her comments come in the wake of an anti-terror raid on a house in east London in which one man was shot. I don't know how to make this plainer but the major concern for the muslim community in the UK should be to avoid losing what little trust, if any, the British public has in them.
