Islamophobia pervades UK Persistent and untackled Islamophobia in the UK could lead to 'time-bombs' of backlash and bitterness, according to a major report. Findings by a national commission into Islam in Britain found the aftermath of the 11 September attacks has made life more difficult for Muslims. It criticised public bodies for failing to address institutional Islamophobia. But it said schools and hospitals had become much more sensitive to the religious needs of Muslims. The report is the latest publication from the Commission on British Muslims and Islamophobia, a think tank first set up by anti-racism organisation the Runnymede Trust. Its first report in 1997 made 60 recommendations and warned that the government and communities themselves had to do more to improve the situation of Muslims in the UK. It called for changes in the law to better protect Muslim communities and a major effort to bring its people into public life.
