Muslims angered by Trump tweet

Muslims in the UK have expressed disappointment at the latest tweet outburst from the US president which linked the rise in UK crime with ‘Islamic terror’. The Office for National Statistics has reported a thirteen per cent rise in recorded crime, with 5.2m offences recorded by police in the year to June. The report makes little mention of terrorism but does note increases in gun crime, knife crime and sexual offences. Recently released Home Office figures also show that hate crime reporting has soared. Sheffield Live! reporter Baillor Jalloh spoke to Zameer Khan, secretary of Sheffield’s Madina Mosque.
