Britain's 🇬🇧 Muslims face workforce discrimination

Muslim men and women in the UK are less likely to succeed in the labour market than any other faith group due to rampant Islamophobia, discrimination and racism, a report by a government commission has warned.

The research, which was released by the Social Mobility Commission on Thursday, said that young Muslims living in Britain "face an enormous social mobility challenge and are being held back from reaching their full potential at every stage of their lives".

The report uncovered some "significant barriers to improved social mobility from school through university and into the workplace" as "Islamophobia, discrimination and racism" are reported by many of the young Muslims.

Anti-Muslim hate crime in London, increased five-fold in June since June's London Bridge car and stabbing attack, which killed at least seven people, according to figures released by Sadiq Khan, the UK capital's mayor.
