355: ‘We can’t stay silent’ | Pakistani journalist speaks out on grooming gangs and Islamism

This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Kunwar Khuldune Shahid. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked Is it still possible in the West to openly discuss Islam, or even the crimes committed by a small number of Muslims? Blasphemy laws have arrived in Europe to placate Islamic fundamentalists. A fear of being called racist has allowed grooming gangs to run amok. Anti-Semitism has also surged, as Islamist narratives have dominated the West’s debate over the Israel-Hamas war. Here, Kunwar Khuldune Shahid, a Pakistani journalist working for the Diplomat, warns that Western liberalism, secularism and tolerance are all on the line.
