To my Muslim friends and supporters,
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a joyous Eid Mubarak.
I am delighted to extend my congratulations and best wishes on this occasion of Eid.
Eid is also a day of thanksgiving. The holiday marks the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting and is a culmination of the month-long struggle towards a higher spiritual state.
I join all New Zealand Muslims and Muslims around the globe in celebrating Eid.
New Zealand prides itself on good relations between communities and places great value on human rights and dignity. The Muslim community in New Zealand is made up of people from a vast array of ethnicities and contributes much to our society.
The Labour party is committed to promoting an environment in which the many peoples who make up New Zealand can live together in harmony. We place great value on our relationship with the Muslim community.
Once again, on behalf of the Labour party, and myself I wish happy Eid Mubarak and best wishes to you, your friends and families on this festive occasion.
Yours truly
Phil Twyford MP
