Bishop warns of no-go zones for non-Muslims

According to Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester, Islamic extremists have created “no-go” areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter, one of the Church of England’s most senior bishops warns today.

The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali claims that people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology.

The Muslim Council of Britain today described his comments as “frantic scaremongering”, while William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, said the bishop had “probably put it too strongly”.

Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said the idea of no-go areas was “a gross caricature of reality”.
