Videos shared online falsely claim Keir Starmer banned New York mayor Zohran Mamdani from the UK, after Mr Mamdani supposedly said the UK had “lost its moral compass” at an event they both attended.

But no such event happened, and he hasn’t been banned.

Instead qualitative research is at its most powerful when it is ITERATIVE.
What is does it mean to be iterative?
