Post-9/11 Britain is a 'hostile environment' where human rights are not universal

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : For further evidence that UK counterterrorism is a form of border control, look no further than the Immigration Act of 2014, which increased the power of the state to deprive someone of their British citizenship.
42% : It is not surprising that for Britain, the legacy of 9/11 also takes the shape of a hierarchical society, where racialised citizens are subject to an internal type of border control, and human rights protections are not universal.
38% : And yet, her punishment, perhaps the strongest punishment a state can give to a citizen aside from the death penalty, has not and cannot be used against far-right extremists, even those who have actually killed people such as Thomas Mair, who murdered the MP Jo Cox.
