A FORMER MP for Montgomeryshire tasked with reviewing the Government's anti-radicalisation programme Prevent has said "everything is up for discussion" including scrapping the scheme.
Lord Carlile was appointed by the Government earlier this month to conduct a review into Prevent.

In an interview with the BBC's Newsnight programme, Lord Carlile said if it is to continue "it should be seen as fair by all communities".
Lord Carlile acknowledged his advice might be that police take "even less of a role than than they have now". [POWYS County Times] Read more
