ANTI-SEMITISM AND SATELLITE T.V.

Early day motion 1435, tabled 18 June 2003 by Bob Spink (Conservative). Signed by 20 members.

That this House notes the recent Spectator article 'Television creates Terrorists' which highlights a clear link between vicious anti-semitism in the Middle East media and the indoctrination of race-hatred in Britain; is deeply concerned that two recent terrorist bombers, thought to have been influenced by Middle East satellite TV anti-semitism, were UK citizens; deplores the incitement of racial hatred against any ethnic group; and calls on the Government to take action to prevent materials likely to incite race-hatred being available in the UK via any form of media including satellite TV.

Signatures by party: Conservative 8, Labour 5, Liberal Democrat 4, UUP 2, Labour/Co-operative 1.
