There is an offence about enciting religious hatred I believe, but that's to do with speakers (preachers of some sort or other) enciting groups to go out and smash stuff up or whatever. Indidivuals can say what they like as far as I'm aware

That law is more to put a damper of the EDL The English Defence League which is what the fascist BNP has transmogrified into.
