Entries tagged with “community cohesion” from Working For Walthamstow

I'm concerned to read internet reports mistakenly suggesting that there is a connection between one of our local mosques on Lea Bridge Road here in Walthamstow and Islam4UK. A spokesperson for the Mosque Tariq Mahmood has issued the following statement which I'm reprinting below for public information:

"We want to do everything possible to bring communities together here in Waltham Forest and the UK. We oppose those who want to divide us. I want to confirm that Lea Bridge Road Mosque committee does not have links with Mr Choudrey or Islam4UK, we don't speak for him or Islam4UK and his views are not shared by us".
