Greater Manchester Police said they were treating the incident "extremely seriously" and were worried the incident could affect "community cohesion".

A spokeswoman said: "Greater Manchester Police treat any incitement of racial hatred extremely seriously and robustly investigate any such incidents that are reported to us.

"We will not tolerate any acts of racial discrimination and are committed to working with local communities to tackle any issues that may arise."

Perhaps someone should point out to her that Islam isn't actually a race.

This is a respectable forum.

We don't want any 'costume malfunctions' on this forum thank you very much Christina!

Manchester police should be concerned with the rising crime rate in that city. Shameful!

Crime must be pretty low in Oldham if they think that is serious.
