London, (The Muslim News):

Eid message by Jeremy Corbyn MP, Leader of the Labour Party:

“On behalf of the Labour Party, I want to send my best wishes to all Muslims in the United Kingdom celebrating Eid al-Adha.

“This is a special time for Muslims, and it is an opportunity to celebrate the values of Islam. These are values of family, of community and of charity. At a time when so many people around the world are facing such hardship, these values seem more important than ever.

“I also want to take this chance to recognise the enormous contributions Muslims across Britain make to our country, to our communities and to our way of life.

“I wish you all a peaceful and happy Eid.

“Eid Mubarak.”
