Islam TV

On the 3rd February I was on the panel for "A Week in Parliament", a weekly political discussion show, on the Islam Channel. The Islam Channel is the most watched Muslim TV Station in the UK but it focuses on both Muslims and non-Muslims alike and this particular show aims to build bridges between Britain's Muslim communities and Westminster. I was joined by Mike Gapes MP and Lord Qurban Hussain and we had varied discussions on the main talking points of the day, including; Egypt, the Chilcot Enquiry, prisoner votes and the European Union Bill. It was an energetic debate and an interesting opportunity to approach subjects from a different angle.
