The Prime Minister has asked the security services and police to consider their scrutiny of groups such as the English Defence League and report any concerns or recommendations to the Government’s National Security Council (NSC). Broader issues such as the licensing of firearms and the supply of ammunition and fertilisers which can be used for bombs will also be scrutinised...

I also knew this was going to happen and i am surprised they haven't tried to make links between the killer and the BNP.

Gun licensing procedures... Key word there.

All that means is a bit more of a background check than you have to go through currently, just to make sure you're not a far-right nutcase intent on killing kiddies. If you're not, then you'll still get your gun.

As the EDL leader said that night on news night, If they ignore the fears, and opinions of those involved in groups such as the EDL or the working class. What happened in Norway could happen over here in the UK in the next 5 - 10 years.

It's all a little hypocritical coming from Cameron, who himself made speeches about the failure of Multicultralism on the same day as an EDL demonstation. And, from what I can see, it is a far harsher reaction than of that of the Norwegian prime minister, who has had a much more responsible tone and reaction to the events.

Are they allowed to investigate ligitmate partys in this way? What if the EDL was becoming the favoured party of the public, would it be fair to investigate and maybe stop them becoming popular if that is what the people wanted? I dont vote my self as I think all the party's are the same.

They define right wing extremist as heavily religious, not just of christian denomination. So do they include islam along with these other religious folks?
