The Muslim Council of Britain condemned the 2003 invasion of Iraq as " a massive disconnect between public opinion – including Muslim opinion – on the one side and the political classes on the other " . The group condemns terrorism by Muslims and non-Muslims alike and has urged Muslims to help in the fight against terrorism . Following allegations that police had wire-tapped a Muslim member of parliament , the Council said it was vital " to hold to account the improper behaviour of senior police officers .

They stated that the bill was perceived as " unfairly targeting Muslims and stifling legitimate debate " . The bill was eventually passed without the amendment by 315 votes to 277
