Following our article on the lawlessness of Islam and why mosques are bad news for the Queen’s peace, at last some good news.
A planning application for a ‘megamosque’ in Dudley, named ‘The Pride of Dudley’ by those behind the application, was refused last month (September 2011).
Despite last minute alterations and changes to the design by the applicant, members of the Development Control Committee unanimously refused the multi-million pound proposal from Dudley Muslim Association, calling it “characterless”, “featureless”. “inappropriate” and an “alien feature”, according to Dudley News.
Dr Kurshid Ahmed, chairman of the town’s Muslim association, said the decision was “Islamophobic”.
In some further good news, Dudley Council says it plans to start proceedings to take back control of the site, which was sold to the DMA on condition that the Council should buy it back in the absence of an approved plan by 2008.
A mosque proposal has also been defeated in Maidenhead. However, a proposal for a mosque in Green Lane, Dagenham, was approved by the Labour-controlled council in March, possibly under the impression that it would be a ‘community centre‘.
Conclusion: We are in touch with a planning lawyer (Gavin Boby) who assures us that it is possible to stop mosques at the planning stage if we know about the application early enough. If any of our members feel called to keep a weather-eye open for such applications by devoting an hour or two a week to various council websites, please let us know. Likewise if you want Stephen to come to your church and share about Islam and how we can seek the Lord to oppose it and win!
P.S. It was reported in 2014 that planning permission was granted for the Dudley Hall Street Mosque, but as at September 2025 it is not clear if the mosque was ever built.

Praise God someone is equipped to do this work – Praise God, for you Stephen.
God tells us to uphold the law and support the ‘king’.
The ‘king’ He gives us is better than the one we deserve, but teetering on the edge of being ruled over by Ed Balls and his ilk. We deserve it, but praise God, we haven’t been given it yet.
The labour government encouraged the emergence of a pagan religion in our country – just as they encouraged homosexual festivals using our taxes to pay for the party.
David Cameron also is in the same mould – he has promised the rebels in Libya to rebuild their mosques – better there, than here, but I object having my taxes used to build mosques.
