This is a time to build back trust. Government action along the lines proposed would begin to do so. On the note of transparency, I support my noble friend’s call to lay the “rapid analytical sprint” report on extremism before Parliament. Concerns have been raised over its contents, which allegedly call for the curbing of free speech and the inclusion of the spreading of misinformation in definitions of extremism. These are obviously more nuanced issues than I can get into now, but that is all the more reason why Parliament should have the chance to see and debate the findings of the Government’s report.
