The Government definition of extremism is 'vocal or active opposition to our fundamental values, including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and the mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs.' We have been consistent on this since 2011 and have reaffirmed this definition in the Counter-Extremism Strategy.<\/p>
The overwhelming majority of people in this country support these values and condemn those who try to undermine them.<\/p>
The Government would not consider the \u2018claim\u2019 that an individual\u2019s religion is \u2018the only one true faith\u2019 to be extremist.<\/p>
We are clear that Government should not restrict anyone\u2019s freedom of speech or right to practise a faith. These are core values that help to make our country great. However we shouldn\u2019t allow the extremist voice to go unchallenged, causing harm to our society and promoting hatred and division.<\/p>
The Government has engaged on the strategy, and will continue to engage with partners - including faith groups, communities and civic society groups on the new proposed powers to tackle the most dangerous extremists. This provides an opportunity to consult on the proposed powers further, and ensure that sufficient safeguards are in place to protect our rights to free speech and debate.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4110", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Staffordshire Moorlands"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Karen Bradley"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-01-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "21382"} , {"_value" : "21383"} , {"_value" : "21384"} , {"_value" : "21386"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-01-14T16:21:59.71Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-01-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Radicalism"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the Government's Counter-Extremism Strategy, published in October 2015, what her definition is of non-violent expressions of religious belief which are (a) extreme and (b) not extreme.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/47", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Gerald Howarth"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Aldershot"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sir Gerald Howarth"} ], "uin" : "21385"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
