Exclusive:
Eid al-Fitr 2024 messages from UK Political leaders:@The Muslim News on 05 April 2024
Rt Hon Sir Keir Starmer MP
Leader of the Labour Party
As the holy month of Ramadan ends and
Muslims look forward to Eid al-Fitr, I want to take the opportunity to send my
warmest greetings for Eid. I hope this Eid is an opportunity to spend time with
family, to gather, and to celebrate the blessings the month of Ramadan has
brought.
This Eid, the suffering of the people of Gaza is at the forefront of our minds.
Far too many innocent people have died in this conflict, and more than a
million are facing starvation. We continue to repeat our calls for an immediate
ceasefire and the release of hostages. The war must stop now, and aid must
reach all of those in need.
I value the immense contributions that faith communities up and down the
country make to our nation. For as long as Muslim communities have settled here
in Britain, they have been part of our national story, and I want to work with
you to deliver an ambitious programme of renewal to rebuild our public
services, our communities, and our economy.
On behalf of the Labour Party, Eid Mubarak!
Rt Hon Sir Ed Davey MP
Leader, Liberal Democrats
Eid Mubarak to everyone in the UK and across the globe celebrating Eid al-Fitr.
As we mark the end of Ramadan, this celebration highlights joy, unity, and
gratitude, bringing our communities closer and emphasising the values that
enrich our diverse society.
For many British Muslims, I know the last few months have been challenging as we witness the unacceptable rise in Islamophobia. But I do believe that the spirit of Eid inspires a collective resolve to face these challenges. Together, we can help create a more inclusive society—something I know many British Muslims are already working towards up and down the country.
The Liberal Democrats stand with you in celebration and solidarity.
Rt Hon Vaughan Gething, MS
First Minister of Wales
As the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end, I hope you enjoy being together
with your family, friends, and loved ones
To those going through challenging times, I hope the strength and support from
communities across Wales bring you comfort and solace.
Eid Mubarak to you all.
Rt Hon Humza Yousaf, MSP
First Minister of Scotland
Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating Eid-al-Fitr and the end of Ramadan.
This is one of my favourite times of the year, when family, friends, and
communities come together to celebrate through prayer, reflection, and the
exchanging of gifts.
As we mark the end of Ramadan, we should reflect on what we can do to help
those less fortunate than ourselves who are experiencing hardship, grief, and
struggle.
My thoughts are with many Muslim communities who are suffering this Eid,
particularly the people of Gaza and Sudan
