Stepping Down Amidst Controversy:

In the UK, Charlotte Littlewood speaks out against the Prevent counter-terrorism program, accusing it of fearing to tackle Islamist extremism. This comes after Michael Stewart, Prevent's head, resigns following failings linked to the Southport attacker, Axel Rudakubana, who killed three children. The damning review highlights Prevent's premature closure of Rudakubana's case, despite multiple referrals. Littlewood argues that the program should focus more on Islamist threats while acknowledging the importance of counteracting all forms of extremism.
