Non ho votato per Mike Freer. Non voto per il Parlamento britannico,
meno che meno voterei per un Tory, e figuriamoci se posso votare per
un banchiere.
Ma questa e' una gran brutta notizia. Da una parte uno puo' chiedersi
chi glielo ha fatto fare, di organizzare una surgery (incontro
periodico con gli elettori) in una moschea. Per me e' una domanda
cretina, perche' non si vede come mai Freer non possa incontrare gli
elettori in una moschea, visto che tradizionalmente, almeno a
Finchley, le surgeries si tengono anche in chiese (particolarmente
metodiste, da piu' o meno un secolo).
Freer non e' ebreo, ed e' apertamente gay. E questi sono un gruppo
fondamentalista che deve essere sbattuto immediatamente in galera.
MP Mike Freer 'threatened at mosque surgery'
Mike Freer Mike Freer is a member of the Conservative Friends of
Israel
An MP has described how he waited for police behind a locked door
during a constituency surgery after he was threatened by a group of
men.
Mike Freer said it happened at North Finchley mosque in north London
as he met constituents on Friday afternoon.
Mr Freer said about 12 people forced their way inside, with one of
them calling him a "Jewish homosexual pig".
The trouble began after messages on the Muslims Against Crusades
website urged supporters to target him, he said.
Mr Freer said a message posted ahead of the incident on the group's
website made reference to Labour MP Stephen Timms, who was stabbed
while holding a surgery in east London last year.
It warned the attack on Mr Timms should serve as a "piercing reminder"
to politicians that "their presence is no longer welcome in any Muslim
area".
The Finchley and Golders Green MP, a member of the Conservative
Friends of Israel, said there was a vocal demonstration outside the
mosque as he began his surgery, but then a second group of people
arrived and forced their way inside.
'Blood on hands'
"One of them sat at a table where I was dealing with a constituent and
was abusive," he said.
The MP said he was then escorted by staff at the mosque to a locked
part of the building until assistance arrived.
Mr Freer said he only realised the potential danger he had been in
when he was made aware of the website's reference to the attack on
East Ham MP Mr Timms.
The message also stated that "as a member of the Conservative Party",
Mr Freer had "the blood of thousands of Muslims on his hands".
"Had I seen the website beforehand, I suspect it might have been a bit
more worrying," the MP said.
Mr Freer, who played a prominent role in the campaign against
Palestinian activist Sheikh Raed Salah's visit to the UK earlier in
the year, said he would "continue to condemn all forms of religious
intolerance".
He added that he wanted Home Secretary Theresa May to monitor closely
the actions of Muslims Against Crusades.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "Officers attended North
Finchley Mosqueat 4.10pm on Friday after a disturbance by protesters
inside the building.
"There were no arrests."
