Britain spends millions trying to stop radicalisation. What if the strategy is manufacturing it?

In 2008, Dr Rizwaan Sabir was arrested under the Terrorism Act for downloading a document that was freely available online.

He has spent the years since studying how Britain's counter-terror strategy keeps producing the very problem it claims to solve.

So what does radicalisation actually look like in this country? Who gets to decide? What does the system cost the people swept up in it?

This is part one of a two-part series. Mike sits down with Rizwaan to go through the data, the politics, and the human cost of a conversation we rarely have honestly.

Full episode on YouTube now.

Our next guest needs no soft introduction.

Kelechi Okafor is a writer, actor and podcaster who has built one of the most distinctive voices in British culture.

She is the author of Edge of Here and the host of the Say Your Mind podcast, where she takes on power, identity and the things most people are too careful to name. She is the rare kind of thinker who can move from spirituality to systemic politics in a single breath and make you rethink both.

We talked about doubt, identity and why she refuses to be worshipped. We talked about the monarchy, faith without certainty, and why she would rather fix her city than run it.

It is one of the most honest conversations we have had on the show.

Out tomorrow, 10am.
