I have always liked, and trusted, Trevor Philips as a journalist, but this is an interesting analysis of his recent research.

How do we flag up the kind of segregation, self imposed or not, that can lead to the kind of radicalisation that brought about the Brussels and Paris attacks, without further alienating moderate Muslims? Would radicalisation happen anyway, even if we improved integration? Can opinions on homosexuality, marriage etc that Philips looked at in his poll, really tell us anything about the potential for radicalisation anyway? Intractable minefield.
