Exclusive: Does the UK's 'don't talk to the Muslim Council of Britain' policy actually exist?
The UK government under Andy Burnham claims to follow a policy of refusing to engage with the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), inherited from previous administrations. However, no written records of the policy exist, and government departments deny holding information on it. The MCB, representing over 500 British Muslim organizations, is reportedly boycotted despite the UK experiencing frequent mosque attacks.
