Bloody crazy, keeping a file on children as young as 6 and 4 as if they're extremists.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The document, entitled “Prevent case management guidance”, also raises the prospect of details being shared with the ports authority watchlist, prompting fears that individuals are more likely to be searched at airports or targeted with counter-terrorism powers, which allow police to stop people without the need for “reasonable suspicion”.
In the case of foreign nationals, the document reveals that the FCDO and immigration services may be notified to determine if the individual in question has “any convictions abroad or whether other intelligence about activities outside the UK is held”.
Additionally, it shows that counter-terrorism police may undertake disruptive activity, including investigating and prosecuting ASB – antisocial behaviour – to try to thwart someone’s supposed path to extremism.
Of particular concern is the impact that Prevent referrals have on young people’s educational opportunities, because the strategy gives public bodies such as schools and the police a legal duty to identify individuals who may turn to extremism.
A spokesman for counter-terrorism policing said: “We take great care in how we share our data, doing so on a case-by-case basis where the law permits, and only with the agencies we believe necessary to protect the vulnerable children and adults who are referred to us.
“If someone is worried because a loved one may be considering travelling overseas to join a terror group, or to a conflict zone, then in those specific cases we may share information with ports and borders agencies to try and stop that person from putting themselves in danger.”
The original article contains 1,179 words, the summary contains 249 words. Saved 79%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
