It seems like ages ago that the Parisian offices of satirical publication Charlie Hebdo were attacked by gunmen, but I guess all that ISIS nastiness has pushed it to the back our minds.
Mind you not everyone has forgotten, as Sunday’s protests in central London made it clear. The protests were actually anti-Charlie Hebdo, as around 1000 British Muslims gathered to protest the magazine’s less-than-stellar depictions of the Prophet Muhammad.
This from Metro:
Sunday’s protest organisers condemned the Paris attacks, but said the magazine should not publish cartoons of the prophet…
A leaflet circulated by the event’s organisers said depictions of Mohammad by Charlie Hebdo and others was ‘a stark reminder’ that freedom of speech was ‘regularly utilised to insult personalities that others consider sacred’.
It was reported that the protests were largely peaceful, with a handful of far-right protesters failing to drum up any trouble.
