This week, an individual tried to frame me & damage my reputation by falsely claiming I leaked a message from a private group of Muslim activists

An individual has admitted his phone was responsible for the fake imagery, but claims his phone was "hacked" or "cloned".
As a Muslim in the public space, I expect strong challenge and unfortunately regularly receive hateful bigotry on Twitter from far-right trolls.

However, an attempt at doctoring an image to try and frame me for something I didn't do - I had not foreseen such underhand tactics
Why the individual chose to target me in this way, I cannot know, nor can I know whether the individual was working *with* others, or at the behest of others.

What I can know, however, is who weaponised this lie against me, and who is (again) trying to lie and demonise me.

The Telegraph has been forced to admit it lied about Mr Hussain & that he does not support or promote terrorism, or been anti-Semitic. It paid an undisclosed sum in damages

This is not the first such outrageous lie in the Telegraph about Muslims (thread)
telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/01/2…
Here are 4 more examples of false slurs on Muslims that the Telegraph apologised for.

Granted, these were Andrew Gilligan, who has a history in this space but that's not an excuse.

ICYMI: Gilligan is a special advisor to the Prime Minister
Let's not forget The Telegraph falsely claiming 2 Muslims were responsible for a "Trojan Horse" plot in Oldham. Another apology

The Jewish Chronicle continues in its anti-Muslim positioning, now praising Colonel Richard Kemp & claiming "no comments made by Colonel Kemp could reasonably be interpreted as “Islamophobic”"
(thejc.com/col-richard-ke…)

It's not difficult to show why they are wrong.
As this collation by @TomNwainwright shows, it's not only his own words. He also propagates hateful articles about Muslims:

1. From Gatestone Institute
2. Defending Tommy Robinson and an article written by Geert Wilders
3. From Brietbart

@TomNwainwright Let's not forget Richard Kemp targeted the most senior British Muslim woman in public life, Baroness Warsi, wrongly libelling her by falsely claiming she had sought to excuse the actions of Daesh terrorists.

Jewish News had to print a front page apology

New @IPPR report out today assesses the risk posed by a no-deal Brexit to workers' rights - short thread for those who don't have time to read in full! (1/12) thetimes.co.uk/edition/news/w…
To start with, it's clear this govt does have a genuine interest in lowering EU-derived labour standards.

See for instance Sajid Javid's 'Brexit red tape challenge' to 'improve or remove' EU laws after Brexit (2/12) ftadviser.com/regulation/201…
Or take the Prime Minister at his own word - eg this quote from a speech in 2014 (3/12) express.co.uk/news/politics/…

Fire fighters in Paris announced that they will not be able to save Notre Dame Cathedral

Macron Pledges To Rebuild Notre Dame Cathedral “Because It Is, In Deepest Sense, Our Destiny”

I am absolutely heartbroken.

The entire world mourns with France.💔🙏🏽

Commander of the Paris fire brigade: "We can consider that the two towers of Notre-Dame are saved"

Good news: all the artworks have been saved. The treasure of the cathedral is intact, the crown of thorns, the holy sacraments. #NOTRE_DAME

Social media users and politicians express solidarity with Parisians

Macron’s plan to set out a fix for 'yellow vest' anger postponed due to ND fire.

Who is Ted Malloch, and how did he come to be "tipped" as US ambassador to the EU?

Thread (1/x)
In 2016, Malloch published a memoir called "Davos, Aspen, and Yale", a self-aggrandising look at his life story including such dubious claims as being 'knighted' by Queen Elizabeth and called a genius by Margaret Thatcher. (2/x)
Some of the other content of the book is dubious in a different way. Malloch makes a big deal about being a WASP - White Anglo-Saxon Protestant - but not in a "racial supremacy, ethnic gloating" way. (3/x)
