While these will act as a guide for Civil Servant and ministers, can the sectors they explain what the thresholds are being applied by the new centre for excellence when compiling the lists, and also how this guidance will be applied against existing definitions in law of racism, incitement and intimidation, which are clearly all active right now, and guide our Security Services and our police when it comes to the application and upholding the rule of law. Im when it comes to the application and upholding the rule of law. Upholding the rule of law. Im very crateful to upholding the rule of law. Im very grateful to my upholding the rule of law. Im very grateful to my right upholding the rule of law. Im very grateful to my right honourable i grateful to my right honourable friend, who during her time in the home office initiated and took forward fantastic work in dealing with extremism and intolerance, and she is quite right that the definition does not impinge or alter the legal threshold for prosecution if people are inciting violence. Indeed, their arguments were looking ahead, but todays definition is not about changing the criminal law, it is about setting a threshold, which will be evidenced when we come to the organisations that we believe meet these bars, with evidence which everyone will see it makes a compelling case for the nature of the extremist ideology. The secretary the extremist ideology. The secretary of the extremist ideology. The Secretary Of State the extremist ideology. The Secretary Of State might be very unwise to have recently closed down the Interfaith Network which facilitated the kind of dialogue that he praised in the statement. He praised on the grounds that one of his 22 trustees is connected with the Muslim Council of britain. If an organisation finds it unjustly on the list that he proposes, will it have the opportunity to appeal against its inclusion there . Im against its inclusion there . Im. Rateful against its inclusion there . Im grateful to against its inclusion there . In grateful to the right honourable gentleman. It wasnt the case to be closed down the Interfaith Network.

We are going to step away from the house of commons, where the Communities Secretary is taking questions from mps following his unveiling of the governments new definition of extremism. We have some Breaking News now. The Prime Minister has said the new definition of extremism will give the government what he called the tools that it will need to protect us against Extremist Activity. He was asked byjournalists what the point was of the definition without any statutory powers . The Prime Minister said, as i said on the steps of Downing Street a few weeks ago, there has been a rise in Extremist Activity that a stirring division, undermining our values, and liberal parliamentary democracy. Asked what he sees as the biggest Extremist Threat to the uk, mr sunak said, we have seen different groups try and undermine our parliamentary democracy, stir division and hate. As we were hearing there, in the house of commons, the Community Secretary, michael gove also listed the organisations he says are cause for concern under the extremism definition. They are the British National socialist movement, patriotically alternative, the british affiliate of the muslim brotherhood, fry ministersaid we will the Prime Minister said they will take action if appropriate. Lets remind yourself of the new definition. Under the new definition, extremism means the promotion or advancement of an ideology based on violence, hatred or intolerance. That aims to either negate or destroy the fundamental rights and freedoms of others, or to undermine the uks system of democracy and democratic rights, or again to intentionally create a Permit Environment for others to do that permissive environment for others to do that. We can turn to our political correspondent, rob watson, who was following events in the house with us. What did you make of the secretarys statement, especially his defence of the new definition . I especially his defence of the new definition . ,. , definition . I guess the way i would sum It U Definition . I guess the way i would sum it up is definition .

I guess the way i would sum it up is that this is far definition . I guess the way i would sum it up is that this is far more i sum it up is that this is far more evolution rather than a revolution in britains counterterrorism and Counter Extremism Strategy. The definition of what is extremism is only moderately different to what it was in 2011, and essentially the difference here it seems is that the government are saying, look, having identified when we finally get round to getting a list of groups and individuals that violate this definition and for the wrong side of it, we definitely will not be engaging with them. We wont be giving the money, we will be doing the kind of thing is that have been done before, mrs it is rather interesting that if you look at the response from the Opposition Labour Party on this issue, it was not a philosophical disagreement with the government, it was a scepticism, saying you had a definition in 2011 a country she was on, do you mean you have been carrying on talking to groups that you shouldnt be in the meantime . By and large, the reaction has not been some philosopher Offshore Disagreement philosophical disagreement, but interestingly in this we heard you get a flavour of flavour of some of the other concerns out there. Will this definition somehow disproportionately target muslim communities . We had the governments response there. It is about as not islam, and not muslims, we also heard. Free speech. But overall what we heard in this debate so far, it is not a philosophical disagreement, this is an evolution not revolution in British Government policy. It is more a certain scepticism out there as to whether this is going to make much difference. This is going to make much difference. , ~. , difference. Thank you for staying with us and difference.

That is the bbc� s rob watson, joining us from westminster. We can now speak to the Chief Executive of hope not hate, the uks largest antiracism and anti extremism movement. What did you make of the statement by the secretary . It all seems slightly statement by the secretary . It all seems slightly underwhelming. It seems slightly underwhelming. It seems rushed, and it actually leaves more questions than it actually answers. We have stuff that is not different from what we had before, and it is just guidance for the government. I dont think we were expecting that from the announcement we were hearing on Downing Street ten days ago. The we were hearing on Downing Street ten days age ten days ago. The fry minister says this aives ten days ago. The fry minister says this gives the ten days ago. The fry minister says this gives the government ten days ago.

The problem is, this is where concerns are, the words are fine, people would not object to the words that were there, but it is about who gets to decide what is undermining democracy . Is it about a wide protest outside parliament . I dont know. Is it about people marching outside a business . I think overnight we heard that the preferred choice for the anti Muslim Hatred adviser for the government has links to us anti muslim groups. It comes down to how you put into practice the words there. We dont have a lot of detail. The practice the words there. We dont have a lot of detail. Have a lot of detail. The adviser is not here to have a lot of detail. The adviser is not here to defend have a lot of detail. The adviser is not here to defend himself have a lot of detail. The adviser is| not here to defend himself against that claim. The government continues to make the point that with this definition, there will be a clear process, they will have to be evidence presented, ministers and officials will review this evidence before any groups or individuals are added to this list. For before any groups or individuals are added to this list. Added to this list. For counter extremism added to this list. For Counter Extremism Strategy added to this list.

For Counter Extremism Strategy to work, you have to have by n. I think it is a missed opportunity. There was no consultation beforehand, there was no attempt to get bipartisan input into it, which i think would have been there. Well have a committee or people who we dont know who they are making the decision, and in the only way to address that is going to court, which is hugely expensive, and for individuals that probably is out of their reach. I think we have got to have a system which is transparent, you have to have a system that has by n, political and Community Buy in, because hit the vast majority of people who oppose issues and cant make decisions in secret rooms and expect people to be happy with it.

They have rushed this out, and to be honest, it is hard to make a real assessment of it, because it leaves more questions than it answers. Itruihat more questions than it answers. What is the impact more questions than it answers. What is the impact of more questions than it answers. What is the impact of being more questions than it answers.

It obviously makes an a record that these are extremist groups. Im not saying the government shouldnt have a strategy that identifies people or organisations they see as extremist, but i think it has to be done in a clear and transparent way, and there needs to be an opportunity to question it or to appeal it, not just to go to the high court. You and i cannot afford to go to the high court, so the idea that that is built into the system is not true. We need a proper strategy.

Thought it was very measured. It was very well measured. It was very well delivered, it is exactly what you would expect from a politician as polished and professional as michael gove. I dont think the angela rayner� s response was also very good and measured, and i think she made a lot of very excellent points, and probably the best point that she made was, why has it taken so long . One of my complaints is that this is a welcome move, a small move in the right direction, but it should have been done years ago. Better late than never, im glad this is where it is, and i hope this is the beginning of parliamentarians and government being a lot braver in taking steps to eradicate extremism in our midst. This taking steps to eradicate extremism in our midst in our midst. As we mentioned earlier, in our midst. As we mentioned earlier. The in our midst. As we mentioned earlier, the prime in our midst. As we mentioned earlier, the Prime Minister in our midst. As we mentioned| earlier, the Prime Minister was asked what was the point of a definition without statutory powers. What difference will this make . It what difference will this make . Ft will make a lot of difference in terms of Service Level with you government engages, and with different departments, who they are meeting with. They do want to give any false legitimacy to organisations or individuals that are involved in activities that undermine fundamental British Values. As far as the Prime Minister is concerned, i think it would be a mistake for him to think this is the end of it. This is a very small step in the right direction. He and the rest of the government have an awful lot to do to tackle extremism, particularly faith based extremism, where we are seeing such a rise in it in recent years, this isnt something thatjust happened since october seven, something thatjust happened since octoberseven, ive something thatjust happened since october seven, ive been calling for big steps to be made in tackling this since 2019, and even before that. As i say, it is welcome, it is a step in the right direction, but the government still has a lot more to do, and whether it is this government of the government becomes next, they are going to have to tackle these issues with a lot more energy and enthusiasm that they have done until now. Done until now. What you make about critics of, criticisms done until now. What you make about critics of, criticisms of done until now. What you make about critics of, criticisms of the critics of, criticisms of the definition who say definitions like this, stronger definitions, make it harderfor this, stronger definitions, make it harder for communities to come together, for there to be advocacy work for communities, and what you do is you drive communities who are now in a difficult position further away from the government or from authorities like the police .

I think that is code for authorities like the police . I think that is code for saying authorities like the police . I think that is code for saying that authorities like the police . I think that is code for saying that we that is code for saying that we dont want to brand all muslims as islamists. I think that is right. We dont want to brand all muslims as islamists, and that is why we need to have these clear distinctions. Islam is not the same as is loyalism, and muslims are not all islamists. Not the same as islamism. They are being let down by a tiny amount in their own community who are islamists, and we need to have a proper understanding of who they are so they can be separated out. The biggest victims of islamism are muslims, and they rely on government and they rely on major broadcasters such as the bbc to continually make the distinction between muslims and islamists. I think this is a small step in the right direction, far from think this is a small step in the right direction, farfrom damaging Community Relations, i think it will help secure Community Relations between those who are the majority of the Muslim Community and the rest of the Muslim Community and the rest of us. ,. ,. ,.

I think a lot of those this across the airwaves. I think a lot of those criticisms this across the airwaves. I think a lot of those criticisms and lot of those criticisms and observations were made before this announcement was made, so it was based on a lot of speculation. This has been happening since the definition was published. You ust heard the secretary i definition was published. You ust heard the secretary of i definition was published. You ust heard the Secretary Of State h heard the Secretary Of State say, and i dont speak for the government, they can speak for themselves, but you just heard the Secretary Of State say that this is not going to affect people who are, you know, Freedom Of Speech, people who have got genuine complaints about government or about issues. This is not going to affect people who go about their business in a peaceful and calm and decent way. This is going to have an impact on people who undermine democracy, but try and use threats to subvert British Values or british democracy, or try and use whatever average they have to try and shut down other peoples free speech, and to try and harm other peoples freedom of thought, freedom of expression. We have a very clear set of British Values, democracy, liberty, justice or rule of law, and tolerance. Anything that attacks that and seeks to undermine that, i think the government need to have a much stronger, much more robust and much braver approach to it. This is a small step in that direction. find small step in that direction. And how do you small step in that direction. And how do you go small step in that direction. And how do you go about defusing the tension is that we are seeing in the country, in the media, but tensions between communities and worries about extremism, people feeling marginalised perhaps, how do you go about solving those tensions while using a definition like this . That is a really great using a definition like this . Trust is a really great question. I think one way of alleviating some of those tensions is for the government, the police, the cps and the media, and maybe even the parliamentary estate to take a much firmer approach when it comes to those people that would spout hatred, those people that would promote violence, those people that would say disgusting and despicable things about others stop you have a Britishjewish Community that are saying they are living in fear, you have fear the police are not policing those protests fairly, here at language such as two tiered policing systems, and i think one of the ways we can diffuse some of the challenges at the moment is for the police, the cps, government and others to a more robust. That is why i say this is a step in the right direction, but it is a small step and the government need to do more.

Time for the weather will stop you may have noticed the weather being a bit milder today, temperatures been on the rise,. Weve had some spells us Hazy Sunshine In The South and east, through the rest of the day, shows dammit it is particularly mild, particularly in the south. We have a warm front sitting across scotland in particular, and a cold front follows in behind, so something cooler and showery later in the day, particularly out towards the west. We could see 16 or 17 degrees in the warm spots across Eastern England, but to single figures across scotland, and thats because we are sitting in the slightly cooler air and more persistent rain. Some patchy rain, just drifting slowly eastwards, so you may well catch a shower almost anywhere through this evening and overnight. The next band of shared rain living into the early hours of friday. For most of us it is an milder night, but a little bit chilly across central and northern parts of Scotland First thing tomorrow. We still have that more persistent rain across scotland. Nothing particularly heavy, and turn to snow for a time on the highest peaks. It should a little bit for bit for tomorrow for northern ireland, wales, the south west, so some sunny spells. Still a few scattered showers elsewhere, working their way eastwards on that breeze. Top temperatures 15 or 16 degrees, a degree or so down on what we have today. Friday night, we are looking at heading into saturday morning. Its a cold night, particularly in the north, certainly a chance of more first round. Patches for southern and Eastern England as well. Workload starts to working from the south west, so will see some showers in northern ireland, wales, south west england, where is further north you are more likely to stay dry through the day, and temperatures ranging from about six in lyric to 13 in norwich. This will bring a spell of rain around, but thenit bring a spell of rain around, but then it looks like we see and a return to sunny spells and a few scattered showers. Not a bad day for many of us. Some Sunshine Looks like it could break through, and again we are in the milder air with temperatures up to about 1k are in the milder air with temperatures up to about 1a to 16 for many of us.
