lord walney, who joins walney, good joins us now. lord walney, good morning . why do we need morning to you. why do we need this definition to be changed? and if you could explain in layman's terms what what's it been changed to and how will it affect people ? affect people? >> good morning. i do think the progress being made by the government today on this is welcome. and what they are doing is actually narrowing down the existing focus on on extremism, which had been brought to a level where it was actually quite difficult to sometimes to understand, certainly to interpret and enforce into meaningful action. so what this revised definition does is it focuses on the attempts by some groups, some individuals to systematically undermine our liberal democracy. so a kind of harm being perpetrated on the country, which is , is often country, which is, is often below that violent terrorism threshold , but for which the our threshold, but for which the our security services have rightly had a focus on in recent decades, but nevertheless can do really significant harm

john woodcock, lord walney, former labour mp, has done a report on countering political violence.ith a response. so there is much more to come, yes. you talked about the people and the causes that aren't in scope for this and you said, so it was things like gender critical views, trans rights, environmental campaigners, christian groups. just picking the environment. so if you're an environmentalist or an environmental group, and you say, "climate change is such a massive threat to society, "we need a dictatorship so that we can introduce "all the measures we need to get to net zero and save the climate." is that extremist, then, or are you covered because you're an environmental group and you can't be an extremist? well, again, if it was the case that there were active steps that were being taken in order to undermine our democracy, that might be one thing. but simply having a strong and passionate commitment to the environment of the kind that you mentioned, that wouldn't be a problem. oh, so calling for a climate dictatorship would be fine. just if you you acted on it. again...

forward by the government's adviser violence, adviser on political violence, lord says that there lord walneytolerance approach those threaten approach to those who threaten our joins us our democracy. and he joins us now. morning to you . good now. good morning to you. good morning. good morning. so can you just explain why we, the government, feels the definition of extreme extremism needs to be . changed? >> there's rightly been a focus for the last couple of decades . for the last couple of decades. on the, uh, the counter—terrorism approach to stop, um , violent attacks on, stop, um, violent attacks on, on, on our citizens. but it leaves a gap of extremism , um, leaves a gap of extremism, um, that may be below the violent threshold, but nevertheless still poses a really significant threat to, to our communities, undermining tension, strife , undermining tension, strife, living out our values. and as we've seen recently, being a threat to the liberal democratic process that is a core part of our country and that we need to do more to protect. >> but when you talk about liberal values, i m

it's not that that that large a logical leap, but lord walney , really, really but lord walney, reallye here and your expertise on this concerning issue. >> this man talking about a judgement day , standing up for judgement day, standing up for working class people, his plan to that by attacking to do that by attacking government buildings and killing up to 50 people, shocking that tunnel vision didn't obsessed with what you believe is righteous? can go down a very dark path, but still to come. >> would you pay even more tax to save the nhs? shocking new polling shows most of us wouldn't. has the nhs lost its sacred cow status? we're having that debate after this short break. you're watching good afternoon britain on gb news. >> it's 125. you're watching and >> it's125. you're watching and listening to. good afternoon , listening to. good afternoon, britain. now, a majority of the pubuc britain. now, a majority of the public are now opposed to dishing out more of their cash to salvage the nhs . to salvage the nhs. >> that's according to a recent poll which found people are not willing

. >> it was lord walney who had on this programme last week. what was he was a labour mp woodcock.y. he did go tory last time he did. >> you the thing is what >> you see the thing is what this these stories all about this these stories are all about is all underpinned is trust. it's all underpinned by concept, the notion of by the concept, the notion of trust for till the trust we had for years till the first day of lockdown, of course, was the anniversary on friday and i tweeted to say what's changed? i'm interested. what's people that what's changed for people that for because everything for years because everything changed and the changed for me and the vast majority respondents said majority of respondents said trust trust in the trust matthew, trust in the government, media, government, trust in the media, trust medics, in our trust in medics, trust in our regulatory authorities. do regulatory authorities. how do we ever get that? >> because what happened was, is, is whatever you think would happen , is of end to happen is, is kind of an end to scepticism. weren't allowed scep

well because lord walney john woodcock yeah. was was the key adviser on this.nk he's independent now isn't he. cross cross bench. but he was laboun >> he was a labour mp. >> he was a labour mp. >> yeah. yeah. i mean yes he's had plenty of advice going in there. and obviously the criticism is some people say it doesn't go far enough . some doesn't go far enough. some people say it goes too far. i think we probably have to wait and see exactly how this works out . out. >> but will he use parliamentary privilege to announce the rest of the list? well, because otherwise he'll lay himself open again to if they're able to able to prove that they weren't extremist and they've been branded extremist, there's absolutely right, so it may well be that by that time there will actually have the facts laid out about why these people are extremist , which should it get extremist, which should it get into a into a court, they can uphold. >> yeah. again, it just makes the lawyers rich as far as well. we'll just see streams of court cases won't we. >> yeah, yeah, claire on the f
