Open petition: Define anti-Christian hostility & issue guidance for schools, police & business

Created by Melanie John
Closes on

Define “anti-Christian hostility” mirroring the 2026 anti-Muslim hostility definition and appoint a tsar to oversee it effectiveness. Mandate school guidance on bullying, require police to record incidents as anti-Christian hostility hate incidents, and issue guidance for Christian businesses.

On 9 March 2026 the Government adopted a definition and tsar for anti-Muslim hostility as part of the “Protecting What Matters” plan. We believe Christians deserve a definition such as this, as in our view many Christian children face bullying in schools and Christian-principled businesses face boycotts and harassment. We ask for Christians to have a definition as that for Muslims, and we hope that creating this in England can encourage consistency across the UK.
