reuters.com/world/uk/what-is-britains-new-extremism-definition-2024-03-14/
Quick Glance: UK Government's New Extremism Definition
- The UK government announced a controversial new definition of extremism that does not create new legal powers and is described as 'non-statutory'.
- The definition aims to help government departments decide which groups to engage with and fund, as well as identify extremist organizations, individuals, and behaviors.
- Criticism of the definition and new measures continued to grow as Muslim community organizations condemned the proposals.
- The updated definition targets the promotion of an ideology based on violence, hatred, or intolerance, aiming to negate or destroy fundamental rights and freedoms, undermine the UK's democratic system, or create a permissive environment for achieving these goals.
