It is no secret that there is consensus on what terrorism means. Today the confusion is growing as more and more crimes are being called 'terrorism' in nature. What does this all mean? UK researcher and former PREVENT officer Liam Duffy joins Borealis in the discussion.

About my guest Liam Duffy:

Liam is a Preventing/Countering Violent Extremism (P/CVE) specialist and Director of SINCE 9/11, a London-based educational charity which aims to create a legacy of hope from the tragedy of the September 11th terrorist attacks. Liam and Tom joined forces and formed the Programme for Prevention and Counter-Terrorism to ensure that local authorities, businesses, schools and community groups had access to the best support available to prevent radicalisation and respond to the risk of terrorism.
