Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for the Home Department By HOUSE OF COMMONS Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for the Home Department By email April 2019 Dear Home Secretary We write as members representing our Muslim constituents to urge the early release of the very welcome additional funding you have announced for security at places of worship. You will recall the matter was raised in Home Office questions on Monday 1 April. Following the appalling attack in Christchurch last month, we have been speaking to our local mosques, and they are understandably extremely concerned about security, particularly with the approach of the Holy Month of Ramadan, when the community will be highly visible. Many of our constituents will be attending late- night prayers during this month, and feel especially vulnerable when out late in the evening. While the new funding will make a difference, it is therefore imperative that it is released as a matter of urgency, and that application processes are kept as simple and clear as possible, in order that measures can be taken to improve security in good time before Ramadan. We would very much appreciate an early opportunity to meet you to discuss how this could best be facilitated, and look forward to hearing from you in the very near future. Yours sincerely Kate Green MP Rt Hon Anna Soubry MP, Chair, APPG on British Muslims Wes Streeting MP, Co-chair, APPG on British Muslims Naz Shah MP, Vice-chair, APPG on British Muslims Debbie Abrahams MP Rt Hon Dame Margaret Hodge MP Rushanara Ali MP Kate Hollern MP Dr Rosena Allin-Khan MP Eddie Hughes MP Jonathan Ashworth MP Dr Rupa Huq MP Ian Austin MP Imran Hussain MP Rt.

    Oct 18, 2010 12:19 BST Labour Party: Jaguar Land Rover agreement 'great example of cooperation' - Ed Miliband Ed Miliband MP, Leader of the Labour Party, today joined John Denham MP, Labour’s Shadow Business Secretary, and Jack Dromey MP, Member of Parliament for Birmingham Erdington, to praise the cooperation between Jaguar Land Rover, the company’s workforce and the trade union, in securing long-term investment in Castle Bromwich, Solihull and Halewood. All three welcomed the deal, which is a huge boost for manufacturing in the UK while also safeguarding jobs and driving forward growth in the area. Ed Miliband MP, Leader of the Labour Party, said: “This is a great example of cooperation between Jaguar Land Rover, the company’s workforce and the trade union. As a result of this responsible negotiation, manufacturing in Castle Bromwich, Solihull and Halewood is secu re. This decision will drive growth in Britain and bring extra jobs to the West Midlands and Merseyside. “This news of £5 billion investment in British manufacturing stands in stark contrast to how the Tory-led Coalition Government are approaching the current economic situation by putting the fragile recovery at risk and undermining economic growth.” John Denham MP, Labour’s Shadow Business Secretary, said: “It is great news that Jaguar Land Rover, a truly global automotive company, has chosen Britain’s manufacturing sector as its long-term base. This news is a testament to the company’s workforce, which for generations has developed a world-class reputation for British manufacturing.” Jack Dromey MP, Member of Parliament for Erdington, the location of the Castle Bromwich site, said: “This is brilliant news in bleak times.
