Why is defining Islamophobia so controversial?

Sky's @serenabarksing explains why British Muslims say without a specific definition of Islamophobia, crimes can often go underreported.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

A long-awaited definition of Islamophobia is expected within weeks - and a former faith minister is urging the government to adopt it in full.

Highest ever polling for the greens in a Westminster poll.

Fair to say @ZackPolanski had a decent first month as leader.

The Labour brand is at a nadir, and the greens are seizing the opportunity.

[Serena Barker-Singh @serenabarksing]

A Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government spokesperson said:

"Ministers are grateful to the Working Group for their work over the last six months to provide their important advice, now submitted to the department.

"With anti-Muslim hate incidents at a record high, the group's advice is timely and crucial to tackling hatred and extremism wherever it may occur.

"And as we have made clear, this is about protecting people, not religions. We will always defend freedom of speech including fiercely protecting the right to criticise, express dislike of, or insult religions and the beliefs and practices of those who follow them. This will remain at the front of our minds when we review the definition.”

EXC: The gov have now received the Islamophobia Definition working group’s recommendations - and are now considering whether to adopt them

[Serena Barker-Singh @serenabarksing]

The group set up to provide a working definition of Anti-Muslim hatred/Islamophobia was chaired by former Tory MP Dominic Grieve

"It's hard to avoid that conclusion given how often his words and actions drift into racism."

Starmer uncharacteristically punchy on #bbclaurak
:: Reform's deportation policy is 'racist'
:: Critics should stop 'navel gazing' and 'give me space'
:: The Left have 'got it wrong' on immigration for years
:: I'm going nowhere and will be judged 'at the end of five years'
