Sajid Javid will take steps to proscribe anti-Israel Islamists Hezbollah later this year and act where his predeccesor failed to, a senior Conservative source has said.
The JC understands Mr Javid vowed to take “decisive action” over the Iranian-backed organisation ahead of last weekend’s Al Quds Day march in London, where Hezbollah flags were once again flown.
Hezbollah’s military wing was banned as a terror group in Britain in 2008 but a legal loophole allows supporters to fly the flags at events such as last Sunday’s rally, because Hezbollah’s political arm is not banned.
The Home Office has the power to ban the political wing and thereby proscribe the group in its entirety.
