Former MI5 chief warns far-right violence now 'real concern' for UK intelligence

Jonathan Evans, former Director General of MI5, stated that organized far-right violence has become a 'real concern' for British intelligence, a problem that was largely absent 20 years ago. The warning signals a shift in the UK's threat assessment, though it is based on an individual's commentary rather than an official government update. This matters as it may influence future counter-terrorism priorities and public discourse on domestic extremism.
