The Muslim Action Committee is a United Kingdom based umbrella organisation specifically set up in February 2006 to respond the Mohammed cartoons published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten. The Muslim Action Committee includes over 400 Sunni Muslim religious scholars as well as Islamic organisations representing all schools of thought in the Muslim community of Britain. The Muslim Action Committee spokesman Shaykh Faiz Siddiqi has asked for a tightening of the Press Complaints Code as well as a change in the Race Relations Law. A "campaign for global civility" was launched on Friday 17th February 2006 at which a "proclamation of global civility was unveiled". A public demonstration expected to number 50,000 was organized on Saturday 18th February 2006.
