Naz Shah MP is right, the effective monoculture in the UK media is a major problem & as she implies its wider than just needing to build platforms for Muslims or minority ethnic communities.
I also think she is right to suggest that a more obvious multiplicity of voices in the media will help build greater integration & empathy between communities; one thing we can do to reduce the power of the 'influencers' behind the far right attacks.
