London (AFP) - British Prime Minister David Cameron was to announce new laws to combat "poisonous Islamist ideology" Wednesday in his first major policy announcement since winning last week's general election.
His centre-right Conservative government is to include a new law to "defeat extremism" in its legislative programme which will be announced to parliament by Queen Elizabeth II on May 27.
Britain's strategy on Islamist extremism has been in the spotlight for months since Islamic State (IS) executioner "Jihadi John" was identified as Mohammed Emwazi from London and a string of young people left Britain to fight for the IS group in Syria.
Cameron is to say Britain has been "passively tolerant" for too long and will vow to "turn the page on this failed approach," according to his office.
The new measures are expected to go further than under the last Cameron-led administration because their former coalition partners, the centrist Liberal Democrats, blocked some measures.
The legislation is set to include new banning orders for "extremist organisations" seen as responsible for radicalisations and restrictions on people deemed extremists who seek to enter Britain.
The government will also get powers to close premises "where extremists seek to influence others", and there would be new powers against charities which divert funds towards groups labelled extremist and terrorist.

Same applies here. We need to start kicking them out.
Sadly, too late.
Where ever there is Islam, there are going to be people who want to kill and enslave those who are not. It is a fundamental tenant of the belief. If Nazism was a religion, it would be no different.
Too little toostd. UK ruling elite sold the place out to the islamonazi invaders years ago and there are now millions of antiBritish and anti-Christian “Asians” so-called all over UK. They are the only group of foreigners trained from birth to take over and subjugate Christians and other people. Extremely dangerous , uniquely so. Need to be returned to their own countries ASAP .
We are, with the exception of our President, passively tolerent in this country.
Conservatives following through on campaign promises?
What about obamacare?
oops, wrong country
Ah, it must have looked at least just as bleak when German planes started bombing the motherland.
Brittan can get it together pretty quickly when they have to, at least in the past.
Racists. How dare they not let those sand troglodytes rape their women and behead civilians on the streets? /s
We’ve got to stop being “passively tolerant.” Sooner or later, it must stop.
China’s plan is better.
a day of miracles!!
Political correctness will lose this war.
I hope so for the sake of Britain. But I can’t help feeling slightly skeptical.
Saw that earlier today.
Waiting to see how that plays out.
Maybe they can import some Canadian lawyers to sue themselves for hate crimes.
It takes a long time for Brits and Americans to wake up, but when they do, they can rock and roll.
I pray they do soon.
The disposing of two pieces of garbage in Texas was great for morale. Everyone, even in NYC where I am, is talking about it.
