This week’s roundtable discussion with Matthew, Safya and Joe delves into the turbulent nature of British and international politics. Matthew talks about the Fear, Hope and Loss report and how it explains why people in the UK voted for Brexit. Safya highlights the importance of fact-checking in the context of anti-Muslim prejudice and Joe announces HOPE not hate’s recent campaign which stopped convicted fraudster Stephen Yaxley-Lennon from speaking at one of the largest anti-Muslim think tanks in the USA. Safya’s discussion with Darren Byler, a lecturer at the University of Washington, focuses on the horrifying tales by the Uighur people of North-west China, who have been forced to enter mass re-education camps by the Chinese state.
