Questions Of Faith: The UK Muslim community
The Prime Minister has launched a £20m initiative aimed at helping female members of the Muslim community with their language skills in an attempt to integrate them into the community and help tackle extremism. The initiative urges an end to "passive tolerance" of practices which he says leave many Muslim women facing discrimination and isolation. Muslim women who fail to improve their English face being refused permission to stay in the UK. Muslim women have been fighting back following those comments on Twitter with the ironic hashtag #traditionallysubmissive. In this episode of Questions Of Faith we take a look at the positive contributions the Muslim Community make to the UK culture and economy.
