1/7 Correction: After @cfmmuk complaint, @Telegraph altered its headline and facts.
After stating that interest-fee #tuition loans will only be available to #Muslim students, The Telegraph is now making more clear that these loans will be available to all #students.

6/7 Of course @Telegraph false framing has been picked up and replicated by #GBNews in the latest example of how a right-wing nexus of British media repeats falsehoods targeted at #Muslims.

1/5 The @Telegraph is claiming that #Muslim students will be offered interest-free #tuition loans by @GOVUK
It cites #Reform's Suella Braverman as saying that this is "anti-British" and "creates a two-tier #education system."
But the article misrepresents the policy. 🧵

1/6 Michigan's @AbdulElSayed is elected as the #USA's first ever #Muslim Senator.
The Spectator wants you to believe that his victory is "the dawn of #American sectarianism."
It does this by omitting key context.

5/6 The article uses El-Sayed's election to decontextualise a British #Muslim politician.
It accuses @iqbalmohamedMP of defending first-cousin marriage as it "helps build family bonds".
In fact, Mohamed cited its risks, simply explaining why it occurs.
