UK Bigotry and Fear
Universities urged to spy on Muslims
Lecturers and university staff across Britain are to be asked to spy on “Asian-looking” and Muslim students they suspect of involvement in Islamic extremism and supporting terrorist violence, the Guardian has learned.
They will be told to inform on students to special branch because the government believes campuses have become “fertile recruiting grounds” for extremists.
The Department for Education has drawn up a series of proposals which are to be sent to universities and other centres of higher education before the end of the year. The 18-page document acknowledges that universities will be anxious about passing information to special branch, for fear it amounts to “collaborating with the ‘secret police’”. It says there will be “concerns about police targeting certain sections of the student population (eg Muslims)”.
Yeah, still not moving to the UK. See above.
