driven by an increase in broader Islamist and extreme rightwing terrorist threat from individuals and small groups based in the UK.

Ok so terrorist stuff like wearing a shirt that says "I support Palestine action". That kind of terrorism.

The story says that the recent stabbings are responsible for sparking this most recent escalation of the 'threat level assessment', but seems to keep mum on which groups would be represented in the rightwing terrorist threats. Does that include people demonstrating against the ongoing genocide, or not? Are we talking neo-Nazis, or have they once again lumped all resistance to Zionism into anti-Semitism?

Hahahahahahaha

The UK can't even copy America terrorism hysteria correctly.

Bitch, you gotta color code those bullshit terror threat level warnings.

In reaction to a fascist party gaining support? Or because some people dont like genocide?
