Arrest those who breach hate speech statutes
Take action against groups such as Britain First which every day post comments aimed at refugees, specifically Muslims, such as: "Gas the lot", "Put them in gas chambers", "An AK47 aimed at the tunnel would take care of them"", "We need more sinking boats in the Mediterranean" and so on. They are breaching the statutes of hate laws in Britain which clearly state: 'Expressions of hatred toward someone on account of that person's colour, race, nationality (including citizenship), ethnic or national origin, religion, or sexual orientation is forbidden Any communication which is threatening or abusive, and is intended to harass, alarm, or distress someone is forbidden.'
Why is this important?
Because groups such as these are fomenting more animosity and hatred towards a group of people, namely Muslims, using misinformation and scare-mongering tactics. This is leading to more violence on British (and other European countries) streets.
