Written Answers
Demonstrations Asked by: Lord Walney (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 16th April 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the security implications of the annual al-Quds day marches which this year resulted in the arrest of 10 people on charges of racial hatred, public order offences and the assault of an emergency worker. Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint - Minister of State (Home Office) During this year's Al Quds day march and counter-protest, the Metropolitan Police Service put public order conditions in place. While there were 10 arrests at last year's Al Quds day protest, in 2025 one arrest was reported on the day. The Government supports the police in using their powers to respond to unlawful behaviour, but the use of these powers is a matter for police who are operationally independent.
Iran: Subversion Asked by: Lord Walney (Crossbench - Life peer) Tuesday 22nd April 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to counter Iranian state influence in the United Kingdom including in political, academic and community spheres. Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint - Minister of State (Home Office) On the 4^th March, the Security Minister announced to Parliament a concerted package of measures to counter the threat from the Iranian Intelligence Services. This includes our decision to specify Iran on the Enhanced Tier of the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme (FIRS), which will require individuals and organisations directed by Iran to conduct activity in the UK to register with the Home Office. Failure to do so will be a criminal offence. In concert with partners, the UK Government will continue to use all appropriate tools at our disposal to protect the UK and its people against any threats from the Iranian state, including malign influence.
