Bradford's Muslim Community And Its Last Remaining Synagogue

EDM number 1149 in 2012-13, proposed by George Galloway on 05/03/2013.
Categorised under the topic of Religion and faith communities.

That this House congratulates Zulfikar Karim, the General Secretary of the Bradford Council of Mosques, the Bradford Council of Mosques Management Committee and the members of the Bradford Muslim community for their extraordinary ecumenical gesture in raising a very large sum of money to repair the roof of Bradford's last remaining synagogue, thereby enabling members of the Jewish community to continue to worship there; and believes that this generous gesture shows the true spirit of Islam towards other People of the Book.

This motion has been signed by a total of 11 MPs.
