Charity boss offers Jenrick 'olive branch' over BBC row
Published: 8/15/2025

Charity boss Krish Kandiah extends an "olive branch" to Robert Jenrick following a BBC radio row about "xenophobia." Jenrick objected to Kandiah's comments on illegal migrants and racism, prompting the BBC to apologize and edit the segment. Kandiah aims to collaborate with Jenrick on addressing societal concerns like housing, jobs, and living expenses to reduce anti-immigrant sentiment. The Sanctuary Foundation head seeks to de-escalate fear and anger in the UK caused by immigration issues.
