STRATFORD: Mega-mosque opponents launch website
A WEBSITE has been launched by those campaigning against proposals for an enormous mosque close to the 2012 Olympic site.
Newham councillor Alan Craig, of the Christian Peoples Alliance, says the site will counter "misinformation and spin" put out by Tablighi Jamaat, the conservative Islamic organisation behind the plans.
A mosque already exists on the site, in Abbey Mills, near West Ham station.
Tablighi Jamaat say they want the mosque, which would have a capacity of 11,000 under current plans, to be a facility for everyone in east London. They also claim to have no political ambitions, which their opponents refute.
Cllr Craig's website can be viewed at www.megamosquenothanks.com
