Reactions to Prevent programme spying on British Muslims
Ed Husain of the anti-extremism group Quilliam and Shami Chakrabati of Liberty on how the community engagement scheme is being used to gather personal information

The video is a must watch.
If you can't get it, one person (Ed) says that we should spy on people and report people who are suspicious or extremists, and Chami argues that it will contravene the foundational basis of community relations and is 'unbritish', aswell as going against human rights.
