Sam Tarry, Labour MP for Ilford South, said: “I am shocked and saddened to hear of this Islamophobic attack against Ilford Mosque. “These disgraceful acts of violence and hatred have no place in Ilford, and I hope that the perpetrators face justice as soon as possible.” Jas Athwal, Labour leader of Redbridge Council, said the council would continue to work closely with police and that security in areas surrounding the mosque would be increased. I am in contact with the police and Albert Road Mosque about the disgusting racist attack that took place last night. There is no place for hatred, racism or Islamophobia in our borough. pic.twitter.com/pSpCnfBNeB
