I’m going to be on the Report programme on BBC Radio 4 at 8pm this evening.
The programme, presented by James Silver, focusses on elements of extremism in the UK in the wake of the devastating events in Norway on 22 July.
I’ll be talking about the homophobic stickers that appeared around London over the last year, including in parts of our borough; and about the proposed hate march by the English Defence League through East London. I emphasised that Tower Hamlets is no place for hate of any kind.
You can hear the programme live, by tuning your radio to 92-95 FM or by following this link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_radio_fourfm
You will be able to hear the programme afterwards on BBC iPlayer here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00jkr1q
