"As England stood silent in remembrance of the London bombing victims of one year ago, Churches Together in Britain and Ireland (CTBI) has issued a joint statement with the Muslim Council of Britain.
............ We continue to resist all attempts to associate our communities with the hate filled acts of any minority who claim falsely to represent us. We look to all community leaders to give an example showing wisdom and a sense of justice.One year on from the explosions we call on Christians and Muslims to strengthen existing links and to find ways to cooperate to create a society where all people can live together with justice and mutual respect.’The statement was issued by the Revd Bob Fyffe, General Secretary of Churches Together in Britain and Ireland, and Dr Muhammad Abdul Bari, Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain."
