'Islamic radicals at heart of Whitehall'

Individuals with links to Islamist groups sit on a government working party on tackling 'anti-Muslim hatred', a former member has claimed.

The group was set up by Nick Clegg and Baroness Warsi, the first Muslim woman to sit in Cabinet, and is based in Eric Pickles' communities department. One member has been accused of running an 'unpleasant and bullying' campaign to secure planning permission for a controversial 'Mega Mosque' in East London.
