Hey @MohammedAkunjee!

Seeing as you have the ear of Maajid and he is that triggered that he is intent on digging up your past work and smearing you by (very loose) associations, I have some questions below that you might like to put to him just to help us all clarify:

Dear Maajid,

Pls Answer:

1) In 2013, Quilliam received $75k from the ultra-Conservative & anti-LGBT Bradley Foundation, which was also identifiied by the Center for American Progress as central wealthy kingmakers in the “Islamophobia Industry”. Why was this?

@MohammedAkunjee

This was the same year when Quilliam facilitated Tommy Robinson's departure from the EDL. Tommy Robinson later revealed that Quilliam had not de-radicalised him, but instead just paid him to do it.

2) Why? & 3)did you use the Bradley Fdn money for this?

4) Why has Quilliam US (the California one, not the NY based one) constantly received hundreds of thousands of dollars from far-right, neoconservative US organisations including those who support breaches of International Law? @MohammedAkunjee

The tax documents available show that Quilliam US in California has sent almost every penny of it's contributions from these same US far right orgs to an unnamed EU 'counter-extremism' org.

5) Why is this recipient not named in your tax forms? @MohammedAkunjee

6) Is the EU counter-extremism organisation recipient of all of QF US far right contributions Quilliam UK? 7) If so, has Quilliam US been acting as a conduit for far right funding to be syphoned through to Quilliam UK?

8) Is this legal in US charity laws? @MohammedAkunjee

9) If Quilliam UK was the recipent of this far-right funding, does this breach any laws pertaining to the fact that you were taking a (70-90k) income from them and running as a @LibDems MP at the time? @MohammedAkunjee

10) Is this potentially illegal behavior between Quilliam US and Quilliam UK the reason why Haras Rafiq made false claims to 2015 Home Affairs Select Committee when he said:

"Quilliam US is a separate entity — it is not a UK entity, it has no trustees or directors sitting on it from the UK” ?

11) Why did Haras make this claim when you were listed on the 2015 990 form for Quilliam US as the chairman?

12) Why then, in 2017, as a counter extremist organisation, did Quilliam release a report on Child Sexual Exploitation which has been debunked by experts as highly flawed & appears of no other use but to incite anti-Muslim hatred?

13) Following this, why then in 2018, did Quilliam release a report to the House of Commons on FGM, featuring what appears to be a Muslim lady on the front cover, offering no new information and again cherry-picking statistics without offering context?

14) Is there not an enormous conflct of interest for a counter extremism organisation to release error-strewn and selective reports on sensitive topics in which they attempt to link to extremism?

15) Does the far right funding received by Quilliam have anythiing to do with the stereotyping and endangering of Muslims that Quilliam's 'research' has no doubt added to?

@MohammedAkunjee

16) Why then Maajid, when Quilliam's 'grooming gang' report was put under public scrutiny, was the report edited without anyone else knowing about it?

17) Why then did Quilliam try to claim this document had not been edited when it obviously had?
