In reply to Timmd:
> It seems incidents of racism went up too, after the Manchester and London attacks...
After Westminster there were reports of a mini spike but after a few days it was reported as no increase (both figures from the same guy at Tell Mama).
I don't think the affect on radicalisation can be so strong, although there's a backlash amongst muslims, Birmingham police asking people not to report false allegations:

But it still remains that the majority of reports are on-line not physical.
Headlines of increases in the hundreds of percent ( ie 400% is a fourfold increase) sound dramatic but it's because there are relatively few cases before hand, only a small increase is a large percentage increase.
I would say that demonstrates a huge tolerance by the vast majority of the UK, rather than an outpouring of hate, certainly much better than Europe or the US.
People find it difficult to put these things in perspective, but an example, our local Black Lives Matter head is of Italian descent. He was asked in an interview to recount his 'lived experience' of racism. He said in Italy it was a daily occurrence but in England he hadn't experienced it once in 5 years.
It's interesting too that Tel Mama complain that the Police clamp down on on-line radicalisation but not on Far Right extremism but the difference here is that they are looking for terrorists not name calling, if you look at the amount of racism and hate on muslim websites and forums it is quite shocking how tolerated it is compared to right wing racism in the UK. It's just not (yet) reported as hate crime.
