MUSLIMS 'NOT A RACE'

Trevor Phillips has defended himself in a series of media interviews today after he was sensationally suspended by the Labour Party.  Speaking to LBC's Nick Ferrari he lashed out at Labour MPs and the definition of Islamophobia they had drawn up.  Phillips argues that their decision to equate Islamophobia with racism is false.  Islam is not defined by race as it is a "pan-racial, non-racial faith".  This is self evident to anyone who isn't on the left.  He also says that, again quite rightly, silence over grooming gangs in places like Rotherham was responsible for the suffering of hundreds of children.
