Luton Violence Update

Two blogs have further eyewitness accounts – including some corrective material – about Sunday’s events in Luton. They are Three Counties Unity and Reconciliationtalk.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail continues to use the wrong photo to illustrate the March Islamist anti-military protest; several people have suggested to me that the photo in fact shows a birthday parade for Muhammad. I emailed the site yesterday about this mistake, and one of my readers sent in a message as well. Presumably with Monday being a Bank Holiday the Mail didn’t have anyone to hand who could  fix an error that is currently libelling a couple of dozen people and stoking anti-Muslim sentiment – the picture has now been reproduced on a couple of extreme anti-Islam sites. However, it is now after 9.00am on a working day, so even that lame excuse can no longer be used.
