The electoral court judgment to dismiss mayor

Lutfur Rahman and ban him from re-standing
is a gross injustice by one unelected
barrister.
It is a political decision that will boost
Islamophobia and racism. It is saturated with the
view that Muslims are entirely guided by religious
leaders and cannot make up their own minds.
It (wrongly) denounces Lutfur Rahman for playing
the race card but nothing is done about those in
UKIP, the Tories and the Labour leadership who
actually play on race to grab votes.

Tower Hamlets council has angered the

government by continuing to pay EMA to 16-18
year olds, keeping social care free, and providing
free school meals.
The main political parties want to crush any
challenge to their dominance.
We pledge to campaign against this verdict and
support demonstrations and meetings called
against it.
We demand that the verdict and its penalties be
set aside and that Lutfur Rahman be restored as
mayor.
