 The MCB opposed the repeal of Section 28 on the grounds that presenting "homosexual practice as equivalent to marriage or in a morally neutral way is deeply offensive to Muslims" and that a repeal "undermines the institution of the family and will damage the fabric of our society".Yet, in April 2007, the Muslim Council of Britain issued a statement supporting the government legislation "prohibiting discrimination in the provision of goods and services on grounds of sexual orientation".On 3 January 2006, Iqbal Sacranie told BBC Radio 4's "PM" programme he believes homosexuality is "not acceptable" and denounced same-sex civil partnerships as "harmful".
