'Rise in kids being reported to anti-terror scheme is worrying sign of how far-right has festered in UK'

The article reports that the number of individuals, including a third who are children under 15, reported to the UK's anti-terrorism scheme 'Prevent' has increased significantly. This trend highlights concerns about the growth of far-right extremism in the country. The piece contrasts this data with common perceptions fueled by figures like Nigel Farage, suggesting that far-right ideologies account for twice as many reports as Islamic extremism and less than 1% relate to left-wing extremism. The article also discusses the effects of a record-breaking heatwave on wildlife, particularly highlighting the destruction of habitats like Dunwich Heath in Suffolk due to wildfires. Additionally, it mentions a proposed regulation targeting pub behavior, which critics argue could further strain an already struggling hospitality sector.
