Suella Braverman has said the government's anti-terror programme needs 'major reform' to 'better understand the threats we face and the ideology underpinning them'.

She added that antisemitism had been"tolerated, normalised and even accepted" for too long in the UK."This review makes clear that this double standard must change, and so Prevent will do more to recognise and combat the prevalence of antisemitism in extremist ideology and narratives," she said.

The wide-ranging review found Prevent"has a double standard when dealing with the Extreme Right-Wing and Islamism". It said:"Challenging extremist ideology should not be limited to proscribed organisations but should also cover domestic extremists operating below the terrorism threshold who can create an environment conducive to terrorism."

The review highlighted that Prevent has taken an"expansive approach to the extreme right-wing, capturing a variety of influences that, at times, has been so broad it has included mildly controversial or provocative forms of mainstream, right-wing leaning commentary that have no meaningful connection to terrorism or radicalisation".

In regards to Islamism, it said the programme tends to take a"much narrower approach centred around proscribed organisations, ignoring the contribution of non-violent Islamist narratives and networks to terrorism".Related Topics
