A Muslim family were accused of being terrorists on their trip to Skegness. They won't be returning: they said, ‘It didn’t really bother us until a man shouted “terrorists”.’  A survey found a 326% rise in anti-Muslim hate crime last year. Is the media responsible for this rise in Islamophobia?

This allegation was unequivocally rebuffed by Theresa May and senior counter-terror officers. See:
