London – On October 4, 2025, social media erupted with claims that the UK government’s official website now designates belief in “Western Culture under threat from mass migration and lack of integration” as terrorism. The allegation, stemming from a screenshot of a counter-terrorism page on the Home Office site, has sparked outrage among conservatives, who see it as an assault on free speech and cultural preservation. The page, part of the “Prevent” program aimed at countering extremism, reportedly lists such views as “hate-motivated ideology,” potentially subjecting individuals to deradicalization efforts.

The controversy highlights escalating tensions in Europe over immigration, with similar debates in Germany and France. Critics argue this labeling stifles legitimate debate on integration, while supporters of the policy claim it targets genuine extremism, not opinion. The UK government has not responded, but the post, viewed over 1 million times, has amplified calls for accountability.
