Muslims Don’t Matter: Sayeeda Warsi in Conversation


Muslims Don’t Matter: Sayeeda Warsi in Conversation
6:00pm, Thursday 22nd of May, Conduit Covent Garden
Islamophobia is rising in Britain, driven by media, politics, and far-right extremism. How did we get here, and how can we change course?
Sayeeda Warsi, Britain’s first Muslim Cabinet minister, Conservative peer, and outspoken campaigner, takes us inside the deep-seated biases that allow anti-Muslim racism to thrive in public life, policymaking, and everyday society. From the far-right violence of 2024 to the targeting of Muslim voices during the Gaza conflict, Warsi exposes how Islamophobia has become Britain’s bigotry blind spot.
In this urgent conversation, she draws on her experiences in government and within Muslim communities to unpack the systems that sustain this toxic prejudice and asks what it will take to dismantle them before more lives are lost.
