‘I’m Muslim – I invited a Reform voter to our event amid political division in the UK – here’s what happened’

Imam Adeel Shah, 29, invited a Reform UK voter to the UK’s largest Muslim convention in Hampshire amid political division in the country. The event aimed to bridge gaps between communities. Courtney Epps, 72, and his wife Jade, 67, attended and found the experience enlightening, emphasizing the importance of peaceful dialogue. The invitation came amidst concerns of rising tensions and xenophobia in the UK. The recent riots are not linked to the Reform UK Party, but Imam Shah is troubled by sentiments expressed by some Reform voters regarding multiculturalism and migrants. Despite this, he stresses the importance of building bridges and promoting understanding among different groups.
