Should we be suspicious of university Islamic societies? Plus consultant cardiologist Dr Gupta answers your questions on heart health.
At 1, Should we be suspicious of University Islamic Societies?
The Home Secretary Theresa May has laid into the Universities, student unions and Islamic societies for not doing enough to stop radicalisation on student campuses. She says Islamic societies need to "stand up" to the radicals and that make sure they don't invite what she regards as extremists speakers. She has particularly harsh words for FOSIS, the Federation of Islamic Student Societies. Mrs May says that universities are "complacent" and that Universities and student unions "need to send a clear message".
What do you think about this? Should University societies be the focus of anti terrorism strategy? What experiences have you had on campus? Have you been a member? Was it a breeding ground for extremists? Or is Mrs May going too far? Is this an attempt to stigmitise Islamic societies? Are they in danger of deflecting attention from real problems?
Are you worried what might happen if your son, daughter, brother or sister joins a University Islamic society? Is it the role of these societies to "do more" to fight extremism?
After 2, Consultant Cardiologist Dr Gupta will be answering all your heart related questions.
