Far right in the UK • The violence and disorder across the UK over the last year is a stark reminder that extreme right-wing groups have learned the power of weaponising conspiracy theories. natcen.ac.uk/conspiracy-t...

Across the US, Europe and the UK, we are witnessing a troubling drift: the hyper-normalisation of extreme ideology. Click to read the full article… www.linkedin.com/pulse/debasi...

Good.

To label racist rhetoric as a grassroots uprising is to swallow its central lie. Its logic is familiar: appeal to threatened people, claim a treacherous government favours those who “look different”, and blame them for what you lack. apple.news/AF1FqAOnZRL2...

💥 NEW: “I’d shoot Starmer myself.” That’s what Reform UK councillor John Allen said just days ago. Our investigation revealed his comments and The Guardian has now confirmed he has been suspended by party HQ. ❗ hopenothate.org.uk/2025/09/19/s...

Shocker.

The case of Tyler Robinson shows the challenges of modern behavioural profiling. Supermarket ideology makes intent and pathways to violence harder to read. Traditional models rely on patterns. When behaviours are fragmented, prediction becomes far more complex. apple.news/AlKypj4hsTu-...

Britain should not be afraid of criticising a leader who alongside his allies, had “perhaps done the most to fan the flames of divisive, far-right politics around the world in recent years”. Sadiq Khan. apple.news/AEKOaV-cXRpy...

Language presented as reasonable or pragmatic often conceals darker intentions. What once felt impossible can be normalised step by step, until the unthinkable is treated as common sense. apple.news/A4ZiNyARXTWG...

The Double Oxymoron of “Unite the Kingdom” Branded as movements for free expression and public safety, they are orchestrated and funded by far-right groups whose actions achieve the opposite. In truth, they are a double oxymoron. www.linkedin.com/posts/drrobw...

In fairly short order, the far right have gone from fringe lunatics to a supermarket ideology: different aisles for different resentments, all under one roof of hate. Cheap conspiracies. Hyper-masculinity. Cultural grievance. Violence. And its rubbing off on our kids www.linkedin.com/posts/drrobw...

If this challenge wasn’t politically motivated, it wouldn’t exist. The proper route was a planning appeal, not the courts—and even then, any change of use (say, for supporting sick children) would likely have been accepted as this has been. Weaponising false claims has no place in liberal democracy.

You did it. The neo-Nazi gig planned for Great Yarmouth has been CANCELLED. ❗ Over 34,000 of you emailed the Home Office and spread the word. Local press, councils and police took notice, and under pressure, we have just received the news that the venue has pulled the plug.

NEU believes these tactics risk sowing division in communities, and is warning that unless local authorities act now, the return to school in September could bring these tensions into classrooms. apple.news/AfLl_ouVgRBm...

Dragon House in York was defaced with racist graffiti last week, targeting a family who’ve been part of their community for over ten years. One window cleaner from Crystal Clean Services stepped up to clear the abuse.

Do encourage those that are interested to engage with the research. As ever - @secrpol.bsky.social

@drrobwray.bsky.social is not wrong….“Almost a year ago, MI5’s director general Ken McCallum reported a fact that should have been a national wake-up call: children now make up 13% of all UK terrorism investigations. That number has tripled in three years. Most of the surge is from the far right”

🚨 Over 18,000 people have already emailed the Home Office demanding they shut down this Nazi gig. Let’s turn up the pressure. If you haven’t added your name yet, now’s the time – and don’t forget to share the link with friends and family. secure.hopenothate.org.uk/page/176528/...

A South London councillor has quit the Labour Party, citing a "toxic culture of bullying", also accusing the party of "pandering to the far right" and stirring up racial tensions. apple.news/AhPCNYXgPTLW...

In comparison to the hundreds (conservatively) of mass shootings that have taken place in the U.S. in the years since 1996, there has been only one mass shooting in the U.K. during that period, and zero in Australia. Go figure. apple.news/ASNkGBCbJTAO...

🚨On both social and traditional media it’s easy to find commentary claiming that Nigel Farage’s extreme deportations policy and the recent series of anti-migrant protests represent the will of the British people. But they don’t.⬇️ shorturl.at/RvFb3
