- Exclusive: Does the UK's 'don't talk to the Muslim Council of Britain' policy actually exist?
The UK's Burnham government claims to follow a 'non-engagement' policy with the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), but no written records or responsible departments for this policy exist. Government departments, including the Cabinet Office and Home Office, state they hold no information on the policy, which is described as 'a phantom.' The MCB remains the largest umbrella body for British Muslim organizations despite the alleged boycott.
