Harsh Treatment for Football Fans
An ex-Home Office Minister, Robert Jenrick, has sparked controversy by stating that police treat football fans more harshly than jihadists.
Call for Action Against Extremism
Jenrick demands stern action to tackle the "cancer of Islamist extremism" in the UK, calling for an end to the two-tiered policing system.
Rising Terror Threat
His remarks come after MPs warned of an increased threat of terrorism following the war in Gaza, urging for stricter measures against hate preachers and online extremists.
Policing Approach Criticized
Jenrick criticized the current policing approach, stating it creates a "petri dish" for radicalization and allows less dangerous extremists to evade scrutiny.
Stretched Intelligence Services
He also highlighted the strain on intelligence services, leading to a high threshold for engaging with individuals, potentially letting hateful extremists slip through the cracks.
