I pay tribute to my hon. Friend for the work he has done on this issue. Does he agree that we need clarity? The definition is essential.

If we start to question the fine detail of a clear, concise definition of Islamophobia, we open the door for companies like the social media platforms to question what is and is not Islamophobic, and the Government need to be much clearer and firmer on this.
