Sir Mark Rowley, the UK Police Chief, urges for stronger laws to address extremism, stating that the current legislation is not sufficient. The government is considering redefining extremism amid concerns over the handling of protests inciting hatred. While the police will enforce the law rigorously, they aim to avoid arresting individuals if their actions are not prosecutable.
Sir Mark Rowley told Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips that his officers are working 'ruthlessly' to arrest anyone who 'steps over the line' by committing a hate crime. But he said that while the UK has robust laws in dealing with this, there is a 'gap' when it comes to extremism. He said: 'I think there is scope to be much sharper in how we deal with extremism in this country. The law was never designed to deal with extremism.
Sir Mark Rowley said there have been 'distasteful' scenes at recent pro-Palestine protests but some of those actions were not at the level to be prosecuted. 'We've got these big protests and some of what goes on there, people do find it upsetting and distasteful and sometimes people give an instinctive view that must not be legal. 'But there's no point arresting hundreds of people if it's not prosecutable, that's just inflaming things.
