UK "anti-radicalisation" law will be used to take children from thoughtcriming parents in secret trials

And of course, as with all the other orwell-inspired laws that Westminster has put in place, we can be sure that this vaguely worded legislation will be used far beyond its initial targets.

I’m calling it now. This will be used on protesters, civil society and other ideological enemies first. After all, the UK government is actually quite keen on religious fundamentalists. We do trade deals with them and sell them arms when they’re in charge of Saudi Arabia and the other gulf monarchies, or we arm them and point them towards secular governments in Syria, (and Afghanistan in the '80s).
