New Labour erases Muslims in white areas

Here's a fine example of the communalist and divisive politics Oona King so despises:

All references to Muslims have been expunged from a leaflet produced by New Labour and given out in areas where there are fewer Muslim voters in the Bethnal Green and Bow constituency being contested by Oona King.

The two leaflets contain the same material but in one all references to Muslims have been removed.

In the leaflet for Muslim areas, Oona King claims "Oona voted to protect Muslims from hate crime". But in the other leaflet this same sentence reads "Oona voted to make incitement to religious hatred a crime".

In the leaflet for Muslim areas, Oona King claims, "I had made a promise to Iraqi Muslims". But in the other leaflet the word Muslim is dropped: "I had made a promise to Iraqis".

In the leaflet for Muslims the following appears: "Ken Livingstone added: 'working hard for local people has not stopped Oona getting the Government to increase funding to Bangladesh. And her brave stand against human rights abuses of Palestinians has made her a leading campaigner for Palestinian rights’”. But in the other leaflet this same passage has become: "Ken Livingstone added: 'Oona has been a great supporter of my neighbourhood policing scheme and, thanks to her efforts locally, by July Tower Hamlets will be the first London borough to have local police on the beat in every local community'".

In the leaflet for Muslim areas a whole section is included which claims "Labour delivers for Muslim communities". In the other leaflet this section is dropped completely.

They simply cannot be allowed to win like this.
