An Ounce of Prevent feat. Maria Norris

It's the free one!

The gang talks to academic Maria Norris about Prevent, the government’s star counter terrorism policy now getting fast tracked through a softball review. We answer the question: “why do children regularly end up in counterterrorism databases for talking about Fortnite in school?”

Check out Maria's podcast, Enemies of the People, here! https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/enemies-of-the-people/id1581679731

I heard recently from someone in the antiques trade that one of the biggest markets for Nazi memorabilia is Border force agents and others who work in the security sector. That Venn diagram of the far right and the state is looking awfully circular.

A good friend of mine married late, and wound up with three male children under the age of 5 when he was 55. He said it was like trying to negotiate with three drunken terrorists.

no, seriously, someone on twitter tried to tell me this was the case. then tried to do a weird "throwing liquids on people is either always good or always bad" thing, then said that it was the left's fault that tommy robinson was islamophobic. truly a wild day for posting.

In some dark universe riley dressef like a Canadian general has total control of the show. Unable to be interrupted and with milo as a sentient blob with no mouth unable to say "it's the free one" or do the bonus episode sex noises.
