Sayeeda Warsi once said that Islamophobia has passed the dinner table test. Yet many refuse to even acknowledge it exists. She joins us for the anatomy of a prejudice.

Three grandfathers killed on the streets of England in three separate incidents by three different men. Each targeted simply for being Muslim — each attack a consequence of the insidious rise in Islamophobia in Britain.

From the far-right violence that broke out in the summer of 2024 to the hatred directed at Muslims in public life during the Gaza conflict, anti-Muslim racism is dangerously out-of-control. Fed by a network of media outlets, think tanks, commentators, and even the entertainment industry, Islamophobia not only passes the dinner table test but is also Britain’s bigotry blind spot. For too many, Muslims don’t matter.

In this live in conversation event, Britain’s first Muslim Cabinet minister, Conservative peer, campaigner and podcaster Sayeeda Warsi uses her dual experience at the centre of British power and in the heart of our Muslim communities to unapologetically challenge the corrosive consensus. As Muslims terrified by the riots seriously consider whether Britain should still be their home, Warsi will urge us to change course, to unite and dismantle this toxic bigotry.
