Would it be against the law/human rights for the government to monitor all mosques? (UK Law)
<p>I am of the belief that in my country (England) the government needs to start monitoring ALL mosques on at least a biannual basis similair to the way schools are monitored by OFSTED. I believe this would reduce the amount of radical preaching that slips through the cracks (eg Didsbury Mosque)</p>

<p>Would this be illegal or violate any rights/discrimination laws?</p>

<p>It would certainly be discriminatory if the government just monitored mosques. I am pretty sutr it would violate the right to freedom of worship.   If they monitored <em>all</em> places of worship,  they would be on stronger ground (but could still be challenged on the basis that they were violating freedom of worship).</p>

<p>Note that this is not the forum to discuss whether this would be effective or not, or a proportionate response to perceived problems. </p>
