IMO the news today of Tories rejection of Islamophobia isn't remotely as remarkable as is the leak @PoliceChiefs admitting that State policies and practices #Prevent towards Muslims would be considered Islamophobic under same @APPGBritMuslims definition /1 theguardian.com/news/2019/may/…
Parties might change, but the police and the CVE industry will remain. Rather than be upset w/ Tories, we need to address how institutional racism towards Muslims is dismissed among police chiefs, so much so they actively reject civil attempts to have it reconisged /2
We also need to address how isolated groups like @TellMamaUK are politically positioned to possibly have their definition of Islamophobia institutionally accepted over the voices of at least 750 groups combined /3 radicalrightanalysis.com/wp-content/upl…
We also need to acknowledge that policies like #Prevent, which police chiefs are protecting in their rej. of Islamophobia, is a big Industry. There are huge financial incentives to maintain and expand CVE in a globalised world, as we learned today /end middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
