According to new analysis from the British Muslim Trust, recorded attacks on Muslim sites are becoming more severe. Monitoring groups say a mosque in the UK is now attacked every five days. We visited one of the Islamophobia 'hotspots' in the UK to understand how the lives of British Muslims have changes in recent years. One man told us he 'feels like a moving target', and a woman named Amberina shared the story of a man ramming his bicycle into her and swearing at her about her faith. • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@itvnews?lang=en Follow ITV News on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itvnews/ Follow ITV News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/ Follow ITV News on X: https://twitter.com/itvnews
