Following our campaign against Monarch airlines regarding their disgraceful behaviour toward two Muslim passengers, MPACUK can reveal that no apology has been forthcoming and to put it bluntly they could not care less about what Muslims think. If you’re still hacked off about their despicable actions, write and call them making your frustration known. To view the full alert containing the contact details of Monarch airline click here. Make it clear that the Muslim populace will be listened to and if they are not, then Monarch will have to pay the price of Muslims losing confidence in their airline! Monarch’s actions without an apology have shown that they are willing to set a precedent that the discriminatory measures of airline staff against the average Muslim are justified. Furthermore they are resolute in allowing the stigma attached to Muslim air passengers to continue. While Monarch may be insistent that they do not succumb to pressure; in reality everyone knows that they did. What MPACUK are trying to ensure is that Monarch will not be allowed to do this again; remember the next time some narrow minded passengers feel a bit edgy at the sight of a headscarf or a beard, Monarch will be quite willing to boot them off. We can not allow this to be the fate of our Muslim sisters – leaving them stranded half way across the world. No monarch we won’t deal with it. We must ensure we are involved in the policy making systems from the outset so we don't have to defend ourselves when draconian and anti-Muslim policies are meted out to us. Fund MPAC or join us so our campaigns can reach a much larger audience with much greater consequence for those who choose the islamophobic path. Our strength depends on your participation.

Yes, go ahead make their day. Don't you think they would rather not have any suspicious looking characters on their planes causing delays to their flights and anguish to their customers? By not travelling with them you will do them a favour.

I agree we should all check out the cheap offers on Monarch flights and then cause mass disruption. The S.O.B's need to be struck and where better then their financial purse .... the time schedules.
And I have sent them an email..... saying that they should modernise their fleet, i recommend the wicked witch of the east's broomstick....."I'll get you my little pretttttyyyyyyy."

Monarch airlines deals primarily with cheap package holidays to places like Spain, so it's unlikely they get many Muslim customers anyway! The above commentator is right, this is the sort of company that couldn't care less if they lose an occasional Muslim or brown passenger if it keeps their chav customer base happy.

You will do better by referring them to the Commission for Racial Equality (go to their website) or to the Civil Aviation Authority, who licence the airline and point out that Monarch denied two passengers the right to travel although the two men had done nothing wrong, and had broken no rule.
It was clearly a racist decision. Boycott is NOT the answer: compliance with the law is what is required.

By not allowing racists, murderers on ANY part of the West by deporting them back to wherever they "came from" will bring peace & equality to the world - you know who you are. Congratulations to the Muslims from a real JEW.

Aah! They think they can just treat 'British' Muslims like this I have emailed all my contacts to pass on the Monarch (How dare they call themselves 'Monarch' they have the class of the Wayne and Wayenetta crowd!) incident details - and yes we will deal with it by boycotting your airline and telling everyone to do the same.
Any one has any details of businesses that deal with monarch please write to them as well. BOYCOTT mONARCH! NOW!!!

well there should be a multi pronged approach
1) complaints and bad publicity. And i mean make sure they get bad publicity, report on bad time keeping ,shoddy food etc. 2)sabotage. Give them some of their own treatment. Get on the plane and then threaten to leave the plane because of the drunk shaz in front of you, and keep doing it , until they get the message 3) total boycott

Monarch Airlines and others of like-mind will continue to be the subject of complaints by Muslims..bring it on!!!
What would have happened if they threw BLACK pasengers off their precious, low-budget-makes- Aerolflot-look-classy-airline because of a 'fear' that fellow travelers would be mugged, or shot to fund a perverse drug crime?! Answer: A lot!! Islamophobes can demean, insult and belittle Muslims and Islam, but the moment criticism is made to the black community, it's up in arms! Oh, but we must not forget that the black and Jewish/Holocaust issue is untouchable! This selctive 'freedom of expression' is, to put it politely, hogwash! Anyone with the basic of grey matter can see that there is blatant discrimination towards Muslims and it is grossly unjust! This country is witnessing the old de-javu of the 70s and 80s when having an Irish accent was a passport to predjudice! For all those who think they are smart by making ignorant/bigoted remarks on this forum.. all you are doing is embaressing yourself by showing the depth of your stupidity and making the Muslims even more determined to protest and educate this nation through the democratic process in a peaceful manner! We can and we WILL..inshALLAH.

To Mahat Macoat:
You really must have big problems to focus on such petty details as a typing error! Perhaps my argument touched a nerve with you! Stupidity is about not being able to think logically and showing this lack of intellect in personal and public life. Seems, in the latter sense, I have described you down to a tee! This forum is about debating political, social and religious issues. If you are not capable of anaylising these issues and contributing intelligently than perhaps you go an work for the Gutter Press!

Ok, this response is for 'Better you tahn me' and Mahat Macoat:I do not
thank ANYONE for being unnecesarily impolite in their criticism - Mahat Macoat was quite rude in his/her response and deserved the reply I gave! What has typing errors got to do with the main point of my argument? Nothing! The very fact that you have poo-pooed the points I have raised clearly demonstrates 1 thing: you don't have a counter argument to comments made in my original post, so in desperation you highlight insignificant details! Those with weak arguments(or none atall!) resort to emphasising small mistakes, such as grammatical oversights and do not add any kind of intelligent imput into the debate. This could be down to the fact you have nothing of importance to contribute! No doubt you would feel very at home with forums that appease your level of intellect and thought process. Here's one for you two: :http://www.bbc.co.uk/eastenders/haveyoursay/yourcomments/your_comments.shtml I will leave you to ponder on your next boring 'contribution,' but just remember that these comments simply fuel our determination to unite with elements of Non-Muslim society who also express a wish for truth and justice..you clearly are not part of it! Yes, I think I should thank you..for making us that much stronger!

I think it is YOU that is "daft", if you had bothered to read what I was saying I made it very clear that whatever a person wants to put across, whether that is criticism or advice, there are ways of doing that!
There is absolutely no need for being offensive or using names to make a point! Those who lack maturity and articulation often lower themselves to this level! You could have said all those things with a little more more courtesy! If "better you than me" was truly sincere, then I aplogise, but I don't think he/she needs YOU as a spokesman..he/she can speak for his/herself! Btw, are you a Muslim, because if you are you have a very offensive way of addressing your Sister in Islam!?
