United Nations Resolution On Defamation Of Religions

EDM number 864 in 2010-12, proposed by Sammy Wilson on 19/10/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights, Religion and faith communities and United Nations.

That this House strongly supports every person's right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change religion or belief as stated in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of HumanRights, and is deeply concerned that the United Nations resolution on Combating defamation of religions introduced annually at the UN by the Organisation of the Islamic Conference has the effect of severely restricting these foundational freedoms and undermines the right to religious liberty; encourages the ongoing work of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office on this issue; welcomes the Right to Believe global petition of the Open Doors charity; and urges United Nations member states to reject this resolution.

This motion has been signed by a total of 148 MPs.
