ABSTRACT

This chapter considers online hate and political groups having members who are associated with expressing anti-Muslim sentiments online. The British government aims to give a higher priority to tackling all forms of hate crime, with a plan to challenge it, report it, stop it'. In the YouGov survey only 33" of respondents had heard of the English Defence League and knew what they stood for, while 42" had heard of them but were unsure of their aims and objectives. The British national party (BNP) is also concerned with Immigration and the threat to British values and the British identity, it calls for deportation of illegal and criminal immigrants and drastically reducing the number of asylum seekers allowed into the country, The BNP has been linked with campaigns against Britain's Muslim communities. The TeaParty.org is as its full name suggests an online party that has local activists working to promote the party's ideas and plans.
