Jenrick doubles down on I didn't see any white faces' attack on Birmingham
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Robert Jenrick has doubled down on his comment about not seeing another white face on a visit to the Handsworth area of Birmingham, adding that it did look like a slum. The shadow justice secretary defended his remarks, insisting that he "won't shy away" from issues of integration and his comments about white faces were just an observation. Speaking during a live recording of the Telegraph's Daily P podcast at the Conservative Party conference, Mr Jenrick said there are pockets of towns and cities that are largely segregated and that we should not back down from talking about them, adding that there was not a mix of people on the streets when he visited."
