The Government takes the threat from all forms of extremism seriously. We undertake a large number of assessments of the threat, including analysis of links between extremist groups overseas and those in the United Kingdom. The Counter-Extremism strategy addresses the issue of extremists targeting our institutions and recognises the need to work with our international partners to tackle extremism.
