CEP Advisor Liam Duffy writes: "Once the allegation of either Islamophobia or blasphemy is out there, the accuser has no control over who hears it and what they see fit to do about it. Those who seek to weaponise these allegations can then use this to their advantage with plausible deniability."

CEP Strategic Advisor Liam Duffy: "Thanks to the newly published Khan review, we now have the clearest picture to date of what actually happened in Batley in March 2021, when a schoolteacher was forced into hiding after showing caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad."

CEP Executive Director David Ibsen writes: "Last week, the Danish government ignited a firestorm of controversy by unveiling a divisive plan to ban the burning of holy texts, wielding the threat of a two-year prison sentence. But will this approach risk fuelling the flames of extremism? By prohibiting such acts, we may inadvertently provide extremists with the incendiary belief that violence is the only way to be heard."
