Original Note:
There may be Public Order offences in the video. However, chanting "Allahuakbar," meaning "God is Great" can NOT be construed to be one such offence. Both sections 4 and 5 of the Public Order Act mention "threatening, abusive or insulting words." Allahuakbar is not covered. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1986/64#:~:text=(4)No%20person%20of%20reasonable,or%20a%20fine%20or%20both.
