Closed Conduct an independent public inquiry into the Birmingham ‘Trojan Horse’ affair.

Closed on

Following the revelations in a podcast by journalists Hamza Syed and Brian Reed. The truth now needs to come out. Who was behind this hoax? Why did decision makers dismiss crucial evidence presented at every turn? We know who the victims of this hoax were, but who were the beneficiaries?

This podcast reveals a deep-rooted nature of institutional Islamophobia in the UK. Each episode is a damning indictment of how narratives and tropes can perpetuated to feed a story of moral panic, in which Muslims are centre stage. The consequences of the ‘Trojan Hoax’ not only ruined the lives of those directly involved but affected a whole generation of Muslims across the UK.
