In Britain, a mosque is attacked every five days. More and more neo-Nazi terror plots are being uncovered Women have been raped in racially-motivated attacks What more needs to happen before we treat this as a national emergency?

On 11 July, we remember. We remember the more than 8,000 Bosniak Muslim men and boys murdered in the Srebrenica genocide. We honour survivors, victims’ families and the Mothers of Srebrenica, and we stand against anti-Muslim hatred, dehumanisation, division, and genocide denial. Srebrenica must never be forgotten. We’ll never forget. #Srebrenica31

Today marks 31 years since the Srebrenica genocide. In July 1995, 8,372 Bosniak Muslim men and boys were murdered. Thirty-one years later, mothers are still burying their sons. The rhetoric may sound familiar in today's media & politics: "If you assimilate, you'll be fine. If you keep your head down, you'll be fine." Srebrenica stands as a devastating reminder that this is not always true. At the execution sites, nobody asked who was religious and who was not. The only thing "Muslim" about them was their name and their name alone was enough to mark them for death. We remember Srebrenica. We remember the victims. Never again means never again. #Srebrenica #NeverForget #Srebrenica31

Today we remember the 8000 men and boys murdered in the Srebrenica genocide. They were killed because of their ethnicity and religion in one of the darkest chapters of the Bosnian war 30 years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with their loved ones, who still carry the memory of that terrible time.

Today we hand-delivered a letter to the Prime Minister, signed by over 300 individuals representing more than 1,400 organisations, urging him to recognise Palestinian statehood and take action to end the genocide in Gaza. Now it's over to you: write to your MP and demand the same ➡️ mcb-campaign.netlify.app/ Let’s unite for Palestine. #NowItsYourTurn

We were delighted to host two special events at @WestHamParkE7 and Wanstead Flats in @CoLEppingForest to celebrate #EidAlFitr. In collaboration with the Humanitarian & Saving Lives Trust and the @AyeshaYouth Project, these events brought together hundreds of people in a special moment of reflection, unity, and joy. Our green spaces are at the heart of their communities. They are places where local residents of all ages, faiths, and backgrounds come together to connect and enjoy nature. We’re proud to care for some of London’s most treasured open spaces, ensuring they remain inclusive and welcoming for all. #EidMubarak
