Islamophobia 'not being tackled' by government
Fiyaz Mughal, the founder of Tell Mama, a project that records anti-Muslim incidents, responds to Boris Johnson's column in the Daily Telegraph, where he described women wearing the niqab as βlooking like letter boxesβ and described the expression of Islamic faith as a "problem."
Mughal told Today that there is more "receptiveness" to anti-Semitism than Islamophobia and the government is not doing enough to tackle it.
