Sir Keir Starmer urged to shelve plans for official government definition of Islamophobia .

Critics say strict definition would curtail free speech and make it harder for whistleblowers to point out wrongdoing.

They warn it could lead to a repeat of accusations of racism levelled at whistleblowers in Rotherham , Oldham and other towns.
