The Times caught lying about Muslims. Again.

I can't emphasise enough how, whenever you see a news article from The Times about Muslims (religion / feature pieces are different), assume they've used dodgy sources or misrepresented the facts.

The BBC finally acknowledges it misled viewers when it used a video showing fans from Israeli football club Maccabi Tel Aviv attacking people on the street, whilst implying Israeli fans were the victims in the video

Jenrick should be sacked

The shadow @Conservatives cabinet member privately told an extremist account with regular Islamophobic & far-right posts that he was a "great admirer"

Scarier: he agrees with it on what "needs to happen" next

In my latest article for @theguardian.com, I lay out why GB News' presentation of Muslims is unhinged and (in our view) breaks Ofcom's standards. And I ask what the regulator is going to do about it.

These toxic comments about British Muslim MPs are inflammatory even by GB News standards.

This is what Sky are enabling by advertising on GB News:

Appalling by Falconer

Does not attack Christians Wes Streeting or Gordon Brown against the Assisted Dying Bill

But attacks Shabana Mahmood despite her acting in line with her constituents

For Falconer it's her who must be imposing her Muslim beliefs? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Shabana Mahmood should not impose her religious beliefs on others, says peer
Charlie Falconer says Labour colleague and justice secretary has ‘religious reasons’ for opposing assisted dying

Apparently some newspapers didn't think the @IntlCrimCourt issuing an arrest warrant for the Israeli PM Netenyahu and Gallant, deserved to be on the front page 🤷🏽‍♂️

ICYMI a few years ago, Allison Pearson shared her "firm belief" that "only when Muslim girls are *allowed* to be educated..we may..see an end to the terrorist threat"

Reality: 25% of Muslim women aged 21-24 have degrees, vs. 22% of Muslim men of the same age

Islamophobic bigotry, pure and simple
