The UK Government must fully proscribe Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Muslim Brotherhood without further delay.

The threat is no longer theoretical. It is already being felt on British streets.

MI5 has confirmed that around twenty Iran linked plots posing potentially lethal risks have been disrupted in the UK since 2022.

The terrorist attack in Golders Green, alongside attacks targeting synagogues and other communal sites, and arrests linked to Iranian plots and surveillance activity in the UK, has reinforced the scale and seriousness of the threat facing communities across Britain.

These threats do not only affect one group. They strike at the safety, cohesion, and values of British society itself.

The Government has now acknowledged the seriousness of the threat. The King’s Speech included plans for legislation targeting hostile state linked entities such as the IRGC.

Now it must deliver.

The IRGC, alongside the wider Islamist extremist networks and ideology associated with groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, cannot be allowed to operate while the threat continues to grow.

Delay has already come at a cost. Britain cannot afford more.
