Islamophobic incidents reported to one specific small Islamophobic-incident-reporting charity whose sample size is too small to be representative rose 375% relative to the number of incidents reported to the same charity the previous week, which was anomalously low compared to the average weekly rate reported to them, after Boris Johnson, in a paywalled article, compared Muslim women to letterboxes in an ill-advised comparison used in the course of an argument defending their rights.

But... apart from that, yeah.
