“Prevent Two Years On”
On the podcast, we are re-joined Sean Arbuthnot and William Baldet, who both work on the UK government’s Countering Violent Extremism programme called “Prevent”.
On this episode, we discuss what has changed, what hasn’t changed, and the reaction to Prevent since we last spoke in 2018.
