Islamophobia, wills surgery and home gyms.

On the phone in: What’s your experience of Islamophobia and how should it be tackled in Scotland? Also - your chance to ask anything and everything about wills and inheritance.

PHONE IN: ISLAMOPHOBIA
The first public inquiry into Islamophobia in Scotland has found that racism against Muslims has escalated. Verbal and physical assaults have intensified, especially on public transport, with more participants in Glasgow experiencing abuse. Labour leader Anas Sarwar, who leads the group of MSPs behind the report, said the results "should shame us all". Several recommendations have been made for the Scottish government to act upon. The inquiry was set up in 2018 by a cross-party group of MSPs charged with tackling islamophobia after levels of hatred increased.

Isla asks: What’s your experience of Islamophobia and how should it be tackled in Scotland?
