what actions has Britain First taken to promote their anti-Islam ideology?

 Britain First is a far-right, fascist political party that is known for its anti-Islam ideology and activities. Here are some actions that the party has taken to promote its anti-Islam ideology:

  • Conducted "Christian patrols" in an area of Tower Hamlets, East London, in February 2014 to counter continuing Muslim Patrols which had first come to media attention in 2013. Around a dozen or so Britain First activists recorded themselves holding a banner proclaiming "We Are The British Resistance" and emptying cans of beer outside a mosque to "bait" Islamic extremists operating in the area

  • Invaded ten Bradford mosques, as well as ones in Glasgow, Luton and East London in May 2014. During the mosque invasions, uniformed members of Britain First presented worshippers with army-issue Bibles and with leaflets on grooming gangs: they confronted elders about alleged "Muslim grooming gangs" in the area; and they proselytised Christianity, telling one person to "reject the false prophet Muhammad and read the Bible"

  • Regularly protests against the construction or extension of mosques and wants halal meat banned in Britain

  • Founded in 2011 by Jim Dowson, a Protestant preacher and anti-abortion campaigner who was a member of the neo-fascist British National Party

    .
  • Launched invasions of mosques and halal slaughterhouses
