The English Defence League and the British National Party are seeking to exploit the horrific murder of Lee Rigby by whipping up hatred and division, which has already seen violent reprisals against the Muslim community including a series of arson attacks on mosques. The government’s hotline is reporting that Islamophobic hate crimes have been at 10 times their usual rate since last Wednesday.
