Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has promised to crack down on people "pushing harmful and hateful beliefs" and "kickstart" a new approach to fighting extremism in the wake of riots that broke out across the UK earlier this month.
The Home Office has commissioned a "rapid sprint" to develop a new approach to countering extremism.
The project aims to provide analysis and recommendations on how to "tackle the threat posed by extremist ideologies".
It will inform a new government counter-extremism strategy to respond to changing patterns in extremism across the UK.
