The trustees of the Masjid e Ilyas, aka the London Markaz, aka The Riverine Centre, aka the Abbeymills Mosque, best known as the mega-mosque of West Ham took their latest application to the High Court in London yesterday. This was in the form of an application to the Queens Bench Division claiming that the decision last year by the government to refuse the building of a Tablighi Jamaat Mosque and to return the land to the London Borough of Newham for a mixed use community project was a breach of their Human Rights.
I was unable to attend the hearing but those I know who were present tell me that all eight points of their application were rejected by the Judge and the Mosque may get costs, in excess of £30,000 awarded against them.

Re the ‘mixed use community project’.
I wonder what would happen if well-informed Christians, Jews, Sikhs, Hindus, Buddhists and atheists were all to put their heads together to come up with a design for a ‘mixed use community project’ that would be genuinely beneficial for that part of London? A Rocha might have some interesting ideas. Or are there already some good ideas floating around, that just need the authorities and citizenry to get on board?
