Hizb ut-Tahrir leader should be deported from UK, MP claims Abdul Wahid's 'right to be in this country should be cancelled,' says Conservative Bob Blackman

(Jewish News) One of the leaders of an Islamic political organisation involved in pro-Palestine protests should be deported from the UK, an MP has claimed.

Conservative MP Bob Blackman called for Abdul Wahid, the chairman of the UK arm of Hizb ut-Tahrir, to have his “right to be in this country” cancelled.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is a pan-Islamic fundamentalist group which has been banned in many Arab nations, as well as in Germany and China.

It has organised rallies which have appeared on the streets of London alongside pro-Palestine marches in recent months, following the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas conflict.
