People took to social media to celebrate the closure of British "counter-extremism" organisation Quilliam, which has long been accused of Islamophobia.
Quilliam co-founder Maajid Nawaz announced in a statement on Twitter that the decision to shut down the organisation was due to "the hardship of maintaining a non-profit during Covid lockdowns".
Critics of the group have accused Quilliam of Islamophobia, fraternising with the far-right, and mislabelling Muslim groups in the UK as "extremists".
