IHRC cautiously welcomes the announcement by the Charity Commission that it has opened investigations into eight charities for activities related to supporting illegal settlements in Palestine.
It represents a failure to protect the British public from continuing to give to organisations that are potentially channelling their donations to entities committing war crimes and genocide.
Summary
IHRC said it welcomed the Charity Commission's announcement that it had opened investigations into eight charities and said the Commission had not disclosed the charities' names; IHRC said it first raised concerns over donations for 'uncharitable purposes' in 2015 and submitted a fresh complaint in 2024.

We join the call for: The urgent review and reopening of this case by the CCRC under the exceptional circumstances provision, which allows a fresh appeal even where there is no new evidence
This is what structural Islamophobia looks like when you follow it all the way through. Not only abuse on the street, but the apparatus of the state pointed at Muslim men.

Brexit has delivered a veritable Empire 2.0 which like any other political project cannot be successful unless it is led and delivered by culture.
Summary
The Islamic Human Rights Commission said Britain experienced another summer of race-riots and a documented spike in racist violence, and argued that Brexit-era politics and culture have normalised resurgent British colonial nationalism. IHRC said culture is being used to deliver this project and that non-white communities are not mounting sufficient resistance.
