Campaigners lobby MPs on government failure to tackle hate crimes against Sikhs

ABOUT 40 MPs attended an online political lobby event today during which campaigners raised the government’s failure to tackle hate crimes against Sikhs.

The lobby was chaired by MP Preet Kaur Gill of the all-party parliamentary group for British Sikhs and organised by the Sikh Federation (UK) and the Sikh Network.

It focused on the network’s new Sikh Manifesto, which reported that anti-Sikh hate has not been adequately acknowledged by the government.
