YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSadiq Khan tells James O'Brien that the consequences of ‘weak Rishi Sunak’ refusing to label ‘Islamist’ comments Islamophobic will be a rise in anti-Muslim hatred.
The London Mayor was referencing recent comments directed his way from Lee Anderson, who claimed "Islamists" had "got control" of him. Anderson has subsequently been suspended from the Conservative Party - but Khan stresses that the Prime Minister should still have gone further in criticising the Tory MP.
Khan also tells James that former Home Secretary Suella Braverman's rhetoric 'went further' than Anderson's and begs the question as to why she wasn't called out in the same way.
