前英国军情五处（MI5）局长表示，敌对国家可能正在宣扬极端观点，但更广泛的社会、经济问题也在助长威胁。前军情五处局长乔纳森·埃文斯警告称，极右翼极端主义已成为“英国情报机构真正关切的问题”，并指出英国有组织暴力和政治动机袭击呈上升趋势。
Former MI5 chief says hostile states may be promoting extremist views, but wider social, economic problems are also fueling the threat Far-right extremism has become a "real concern for British intelligence," former MI5 chief Jonathan Evans warned, pointing to a rise in organized violence and politically motivated attacks in Britain.
“基本上20年前这还不是个问题，但现在已成为英国情报机构真正关切的问题，”埃文斯对阿纳多卢通讯社表示。
"This is a problem that wasn't really there 20 years ago, but it is now a real concern for British intelligence," Evans told Anadolu.
“我认为非常清楚的是，极右翼的有组织暴力有所上升，过去几年里我们看到包括议员在内的个人遇害。乔·考克斯是最引人注目的公开案例。”考克斯是英国议员，2016年6月被极右翼极端分子托马斯·梅尔谋杀，后者因考克斯的政治观点（包括她对移民的支持和英国留在欧盟的立场）将其作为目标。
"I think it's very clear that there has been a rise in organized violence from the far right, and that we've seen individuals killed, including MPs, over the last several years. Jo Cox is the most publicly notable example." Cox, a British lawmaker, was murdered in June 2016 by Thomas Mair, a far-right extremist who targeted her over her political views, including her support for immigration and Britain's membership in the European Union.
法院认定该谋杀案是由暴力白人至上主义和极端民族主义驱动，检方将其定性为恐怖主义行为。梅尔被判处无假释可能的终身监禁。
The court found that the murder was motivated by violent white supremacism and extreme nationalism, while prosecutors described it as an act of terrorism. Mair was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
埃文斯的警告之际，军情五处局长肯·麦卡勒姆爵士报告称，极右翼恐怖主义威胁日益增长，特别是涉及反移民和反穆斯林不满的案件。
Evans' warning comes as MI5 Director-General Sir Ken McCallum reports a growing threat from extreme right-wing terrorism, particularly cases involving anti-immigration and anti-Muslim grievances.
“过去一年最显著的趋势是，极端版本的反移民和反穆斯林不满演变为恐怖主义意图的案件增加，”麦卡勒姆在10月13日的年度威胁评估中表示。
"Over the last year the most marked trend has been an increase in cases where extremist versions of anti-immigration and anti-Muslim grievance are tipping into terrorist intent," McCallum said in his annual threat assessment on Oct. 13.
内政部8月发布的数据显示，截至2025年9月的一年里，英国“预防”反恐计划的转介数量激增39%，达到创纪录的10293起。
Home Office figures released in August showed that referrals to Britain's Prevent counterterrorism program rose 39% to a record 10,293 in the year ending September 2025.
涉及极右翼意识形态担忧的转介增加42%，达2103起，占总数的20%。
Referrals involving concerns about extreme right-wing ideology increased 42% to 2,103, accounting for 20% of the total.
埃文斯表示，极右翼极端主义的上升主要不是英国外交政策的后果。
Evans said the rise in far-right extremism was not primarily a consequence of Britain's foreign policy.
“我认为，其中很大一部分实际上可能是由国内政策以及对这些观点的蓄意宣扬所驱动，包括一些敌对国家的宣扬，”他说。
"I think much of it may actually be driven by domestic policy and the deliberate promotion of these views, including by some hostile states," he said.
敌对国家与信息行动 埃文斯指出，外国的信息行动可能正在助长极端观点的传播，尽管他强调，这一问题也反映了更广泛的社会和经济压力。
Hostile states and information operations Evans suggested that foreign information operations could be contributing to the spread of extremist views, although he stressed that the problem also reflected broader social and economic pressures.
“我认为有人正在针对我们开展信息行动，但这同时也反映了更广泛的社会和经济问题。这并非英国独有。我们在整个欧洲都看到了这种情况，当然，在美国也在一定程度上存在。”他的言论凸显了将国内激进化与更广泛的信息环境区分开来的困难，在该环境中，极端主义叙事能够迅速跨越国界传播。埃文斯还回应了关于英国依赖美国科技公司的担忧。
“I think there is an information operation being conducted against us, but it is also a reflection of wider social and economic problems. This is not something unique to the UK. We’re seeing it across Europe and, of course, to some extent in the US.”His comments highlight the difficulty of separating domestic radicalization from the wider information environment, where extremist narratives can spread rapidly across borders. Evans also addressed concerns about Britain's reliance on US technology companies.
一些英国议员和数字权利团体提出担忧，认为英国对美国科技公司的依赖可能对其数字主权、国家安全和经济构成风险。
Some UK lawmakers and digital rights groups have raised concerns that Britain's reliance on US technology companies could pose risks to its digital sovereignty, national security and economy.
然而，埃文斯拒绝了这些公司本身对国家安全构成直接威胁的说法。“我不会说美国科技公司对英国政府构成威胁，”他说。
However, Evans rejected the suggestion that the companies themselves posed a direct national security threat. “I wouldn’t say that US tech companies are a threat to the UK government,” he said.
“我认为，在确保信息被适当使用方面存在挑战。存在涉及主权等方面的问题，而这些仍在逐步推进中，”他说。
“I think there are challenges around ensuring that information is used appropriately. There are issues relating to sovereignty and so on, and these are still works in progress,” he said.
英国国家恐怖主义威胁等级为“严重” 麦卡勒姆的评估还强调了儿童和青少年卷入极右翼恐怖主义调查的情况。
UK national terrorism threat level at 'severe' McCallum's assessment also highlighted the involvement of children and teenagers in extreme right-wing terrorism investigations.
他透露，英国军情五处（MI5）最近曾调查一名“在英国被激进化的13岁极右翼分子”。“那次调查产生的情报使我们的一个国际合作伙伴得以阻止其境内发生的一起致命袭击，”他说。
He disclosed that MI5 had recently investigated a "radicalized extreme right-wing 13-year-old here in the UK." "That investigation generated insight that enabled one of our international partners to prevent a lethal attack on their soil," he said.
麦卡勒姆还提到了一个来自苏格兰因弗克莱德（Inverclyde）的16岁少年的案例：该少年因策划袭击一个伊斯兰社区中心，于2025年被判处10年监禁。这些案例凸显了人们对网络极端主义如何吸引越来越多的年轻人走向极端暴力行为的担忧。
McCallum also cited the case of a 16-year-old from Inverclyde, Scotland, who received a 10-year prison sentence in 2025 for planning an attack on an Islamic community center. The cases underscore concerns about the role of online radicalization in drawing increasingly young people toward extremist violence.
近五年来，英国联合恐怖主义分析中心（Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre）首次将英国的恐怖主义威胁等级提升至“严重”级别，这意味着恐怖袭击的可能性极高。
For the first time in almost five years, the UK’s Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre in May raised the UK terrorism threat level to severe, meaning an attack is highly likely.
“虽然威胁等级的变动反映了整个恐怖主义形势，但最近威胁程度的上升在很大程度上是由极右翼恐怖主义活动推动的。这是一个复杂的局面，其中存在许多不同的亚文化群体，”麦卡勒姆说道。
“While the threat level change reflects the whole of the terrorist threat, the recent increase was driven in significant part by extreme right-wing terrorism. This is a complex landscape, with many subcultures,” McCallum said.
南波特（Southport）的骚乱事件进一步凸显了英国社会中的紧张局势。此前几年，英国社会一直对极右翼暴力行为和反移民情绪感到高度担忧。2024年，南波特发生一起致命刺杀事件后，英格兰和北爱尔兰多地爆发了骚乱，骚乱者袭击了清真寺、寻求庇护者以及收容移民的设施。
Southport riots highlight wider tensions The intelligence warnings follow several years of heightened concern about far-right violence and anti-immigration hostility in Britain. In 2024, riots erupted across parts of England and Northern Ireland following a deadly stabbing attack in Southport, with rioters targeting mosques, asylum seekers and facilities housing migrants.
事件发生后，网上流传着关于袭击者身份和移民身份的虚假信息，进一步加剧了反移民情绪。
False claims about the attacker's identity and immigration status spread online in the aftermath of the killings, fueling anti-immigration unrest.
根据医学期刊《柳叶刀》（The Lancet）发表的分析报告，骚乱的主要目标是寻求庇护者、穆斯林以及从事移民法律工作的律师。报告作者指出，这种暴力行为发生在长达十年的排外言论和政治极化背景下。
According to an analysis published in the medical journal The Lancet, the riots targeted asylum seekers, Muslims and immigration lawyers, amid what the authors described as a decade of xenophobic rhetoric and political polarization.
这些骚乱事件还暴露了极右翼网络的国际影响力。2024年10月，天空新闻（Sky News）与情报机构Prose联合开展的一项调查发现，在他们分析的南波特事件后的网络讨论中，最具影响力的20个Telegram账户中有14个位于英国境外。
The unrest also exposed the international reach of online far-right networks. An October 2024 investigation by Sky News and intelligence firm Prose found that 14 of the 20 most influential Telegram accounts in their analysis of discussions following the Southport attack were based outside Britain.
“英国人民正在承受这些错误信息的后果，”Prose公司的总经理Al Baker当时说道。“那些煽动暴力、在Telegram等平台上传播错误信息的人，大多来自英国境外。”在10月13日的威胁评估报告中，McCallum呼吁公众对网上流传的信息保持更加警惕、更加批判的态度。
"People in Britain are dealing with the consequences of this misinformation," said Al Baker, managing director of Prose, at the time. “The people stoking the violence, the people flooding Telegram and other platforms of misinformation are largely based outside the UK." In his Oct. 13 threat assessment, McCallum urged the public to be more critical of information circulating online.
“如果你不属于上述任何一类人群，而只是新闻的消费者，那么请思考一下：你愿意相信哪些信息？这些信息来自哪里？为什么你会相信它们？”他说道。
"If you're none of the above but a consumer of news, think about what you're willing to believe, from whom, and why," he said.
