We formally demand that the UK Government ends its policy of "diplomatic review" and immediately designates the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation.

The events of 2026 have made the current government’s position untenable. The IRGC is no longer a conventional military force; it is a transnational terror apparatus that has declared war on its own citizens and British interests alike.

Why the UK Government Must Act Now:

The January 2026 Massacre: Following the nationwide uprising, the IRGC orchestrated the single most brutal crackdown in the history of the Islamic Republic. On January 8th & 9th, 2026, during a state-mandated internet blackout, IRGC forces carried out mass executions and lethal attacks on civilians. Independent monitors now estimate a catastrophic death toll of over 30,000 Iranians.
The EU Precedent: On January 29, 2026, the European Union unanimously designated the IRGC as a terrorist organisation, placing it on the same legal footing as Al-Qaeda and ISIS. The UK is now a dangerous outlier, providing a legal and financial loophole for the IRGC that our closest European allies have closed.

Direct Attacks on British Interests: The IRGC’s state-sponsored proxy networks are no longer a regional concern; they are an active threat to British sovereignty. In recent weeks, IRGC-coordinated strikes have directly targeted UK sovereign bases and personnel in the region, including narrowly avoided mass-casualty events at RAF installations.
Terrorism on British Soil: MI5 has confirmed the existence of over 20 lethal plots orchestrated by the IRGC within the UK. By refusing to proscribe the group, the Government is allowing IRGC-linked entities to continue operating, recruiting, and financing terror on British streets.

The Democratic Will has been Ignored:
The House of Commons has already voted in favour of proscription. The Government’s refusal to implement this decision is a rejection of the democratic will and a dereliction of its primary duty: the security of the United Kingdom and its citizens.

We Demand:

Immediate Proscription: Formally designate the IRGC as a terrorist organisation under the Terrorism Act 2000.
Asset Seizure: Freeze all UK-based assets belonging to the IRGC and its front companies.
Expulsion: Close all institutions on British soil that act as recruitment or propaganda hubs for the IRGC.

The time for dithering and delay is over. The IRGC is a terrorist organisation. It is time the UK Government treated them like one.
