>> we have taken action against the extremist group and we abandon. were looking extreme carefully. in my view with this set goes well beyond what a legal organization, but this has to be done under the law. >> mr. speaker, given the former labour pension minister described the current position -- with my right honorable friend agrees that it's acceptable for a small minority to be disrupting a position tomorrow of thousands of people across this country? >> i think my right honorable friend is absolutely right and clearly this is the issue, they simply don't want to talk on the other side of this house. it is and all minority of unions that have gone ahead with action. i think it is irresponsible. i don't believe it is there and i think what we are proposing is there. he makes the point quite rightly that was lord houghton, a former labour minister was written and extreme good report, making this appointment as we live longer, which is good news, we're going to have to contribute more to public sector pensions, and, indeed, work for longer. let me stress, the reason we're doing this

jive with the normal process there between some of the right wing political parties and the more extremist groupsdo they try to separate themselves normally? >> normally, yes. and i mean the issue, one of the issues with breivik of course is that he was a member both of the progress party. he was a member of the youth wing before leaving the party-- and of the extra parliamentary right. so the question is how do these two spheres interact and you're quite right that most radical right parties have denounced breivik and distanced themselves from it. looking at the internet reaction you see only the most extremist fringes celebrating or at least not denouncing, at least not denouncing breivik. i think that obviously people have said well maybe the left sees an opportunity here to in some sort of morbid way make political play of this. so that, the debate that we're having right now and obviously are going to have for several months, is similar to the one that we have i think in the united states after loughner. i tend to see breivik-- just to differ with jonathan a bit on the organization of the vi

the left wing extremist groups earth first things like the jewish defense league is like a communist five percent islamic extremist six percent right are we making much ado about nothing and shouldn't we be concerned about your deen and the two thousand and five and two thousand and six i read about this in the book there was a sort of policy decision within al qaeda senior leadership to change their tactics and start going after western europeans and also american citizens because they saw that law enforcement intelligence albeit was i mean they were doing you know but they made a real estate sale that were christie thousand and six and two thousand and seven and want to show in this book their background documents that i've seen that were produced by the justice department is that since january two thousand and nine we've had a case of homegrown terrorism here in the united states with some kind of international link whether it's to al qaeda in yemen or the group in somalia al-shabaab i don't every two to three weeks during that period now

the rising confidence of extremist groups is making observers extremely nervous, especially as the country is home to what the jihadists like to call the islamic bomb. the last time the world was jittery about security in pakistan was nearly a decade ago just after the 9/11 attacks when washington developed an emergency plans. we have been told that these plans are coming once again and they are contemplating the country expanding their nuclear arsenal at a time of weakness. these are the images behind the latest attack of nerves, a naval base in karachi. they destroyed two u.s.-made spy planes in a well-executed operation which is believed to have received support from elements within the armed forces. >> the raid on that particular naval facility was unique in this sense that it was the first time that an organized group was able to get inside to a heavily armed military facility and move around inside and conduct devastating attacks against elements of this facility. in this case, they went after it u.s. supplied maritime surveillance aircraft. assetsstan's nuclear have spread across th

extremist groups want to go. well we have seen many attempts in europe and in the world for many years now since nine eleven on terrorism and there have been driven by jihadists and muslim extremists and regrettably to say that the first thought that comes to mind when we when we're dealing with terror attacks is that it might be linked to jihadist military missions and i don't think we shall be frightened now that this will spread it seems for the most recent. messages from the from the norwegian intelligence service it seems that this is the all for lack of one man that has acted very much on his own and therefore doesn't act on behalf of us have a group or a network that might have more attempts with terrorism in their plans well if i can just pick you up on that and should other european nations be on alert following the bloodshed in the way or is it more like it's been isolated domestically shane. well we always have to be alert because we are living in a time where terrorism regrettably has become a part of the reality but this incident i think is more similar to the shooting episodes that we've seen in schools an

at least one hundred injured now it's early days but do you think the attacks were planned by an individual an extremist political group. well. the information so far a start this might be a lone individual nationalist right being very conservative on to immigrant. probably planned this vellum for a long time. i mean it's it's still early days in terms of saying what's behind them the more people very behind but so far i think there is a relatively huge possibility that he acted alone but of course with extremely extreme determination. can you have a secure against one person's act to fix stream random violence that. short on to do that there's no i mean a person who hasn't a voice to sing tension in on the public for all who is not planning and organizing together and with with with all the people it's a very difficult to truck in addition to. the legal sort of measures available to the police and the security services nor are they all limited as long as people are not conspiring together with other people or actively. encouraging violence so there is really no legal justification to keep them under surveillance and t
