Miqdaad Versi& #39;s Centre for Media Monitoring is a project of the Muslim Council of Britain.

It poses as the respectable, moderate face of the MCB.

But a quick glance at their panel for an upcoming event shows its true colours.

Let& #39;s look at two of them.
When at the Muslim Brotherhood& #39;s Federation of Islamic Student Societies, Amandla protested the exclusion by the UK and Ireland of the suicide bombing legitimising cleric Yusuf Al Qaradawi.

He called the hate preacher the "voice of moderation"!

Following the Manchester bombing, what was Amandla& #39;s explanation?

Yes! You guessed it! The UK& #39;s foreign policy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbF7RboCg94&feature=youtu.be&t=155">https://www.youtube.com/watch... https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Assed Baig is a journalist at Qatar& #39;s Al Jazeera.

He first hit the news when it was reported that he had used a range of derogatory "racially charged" slurs on Twitter.

Notably, he denied that these terms were racist. https://order-order.com/2016/04/08/channel-4-news-reporters-racially-charged-tweets/">https://order-order.com/2016/04/0...
Assed left Channel 4 in the wake of a scandal resulting from a film about Muslim women who “fight back by rejecting stereotypes”

Unfortunately, one woman featured in the film is a Hamas and Hezbollah fan who supported car and knife attacks on Jews https://order-order.com/2017/08/29/channel-4s-assed-baig-out-after-promoting-terror-supporting-islamist/">https://order-order.com/2017/08/2...
The Centre for Media Monitoring promotes this evening& #39;s event as a "unique opportunity to meet" these speakers.

And that& #39;s really what the MCB is all about.

They showcase these people, because they admire them, and see them as role models.
