Under the heading “Defeating racism” – always a cause close to the hearts of the right-wing media – the Telegraph offers its take on the current conflict between anti-racists and the Commission for Racial Equality: “Trevor Phillips, the former New Labour functionary who chairs the CRE, has woken up to the perils of multiculturalism, and has also attacked bigoted Islamists. This has infuriated hard Leftists and radical Muslims…. The Mayor of London’s office wants to boycott a CRE conference that promises to be truly open-minded, even to the extent of debating Enoch Powell’s views.”
