Home Office: ‘two-tier’ police claims are an ‘extreme right-wing’ narrative
- An internal report on counter-extremism leaked by the Home Office claims fears over two-tier policing are an extreme right-wing narrative and dismisses concerns about grooming gangs as exploited by the far-right to stir hatred against Muslims.
- The report advises the Home Secretary to focus on behaviours rather than ideologies and calls for increased collection of non-crime hate incidents, which critics label as a waste of police time and chilling to free speech.
- Yvette Cooper, who ordered the report, stated she would not accept its findings, indicating a lack of support for its recommendations.
- The Home Office's report has caused controversy, with ministers distancing themselves from it and reaffirming their focus on Islamist extremism as a priority in countering terrorism.
