You know it's bad when Conservatives from Rudd to Patel are telling this Govt not to politicise extremism. What we're seeing from Sunak's Govt now is downright dangerous. The issue of extremism is far too serious to be used as an election strategy.

@CarolineLucas This ‘government’ are extremists!
@jaycee @CarolineLucas Going after the ideology rather than the actions feels a lot like Thoughtcrime.
@CarolineLucas isn't that one of the principles of totalitarianism? "Accuse opponents of that which you are guilty"
So obviously government ministers at present will do this.
I'm afraid I have a very poor opinion of them.
