I think there’s a strong strain within British liberal thinking, which sees muslims, darkly, through a bar of Fry’s Turkish Delight. They think of muslims as noble savages, and applaud when they find one who is ’semi-civilised’. Because that’s their conception of muslims, they only really recognise people who meet that stereotype as ‘authentic’. Muslim liberals are just dismissed as ‘unrepresentative’ or Uncle Toms.
