Whatever the existing hate laws or any future change to them, Choudary's legal knowledge will be such that he should know the boundaries preventing him from serious charge(s). Gromit makes a valid point in that it is one thing to be deemed odious but it is another matter to breach an existing law(s). Regarding Rigby's murder, I recall Choudary's input in a...

Keyplus, This man has been spouting hatred for years. His ambition is for Islam to dominate this country, and you agree with him. Your words ....
// ....they, MI5, MI6, CIA and many more who want someone who can give them a reason to say "this is Islam all about". //
... and more of your words.....
//As far as the domination of Islam is concerned. Truth always come out on top, sooner or later. You believe it or not. Your problem.//
That is what your version - and his - of Islam - is all about. Who do you think you're kidding? Stop treating people here as fools.

It's unfair to shame the BBC/Ch4 for hosting Choudary.Every one of Anjem Choudary's appearances (or all the ones I've seen anyway) have involved him being vigorously challenged. These stations don't just sit back and say "Well, we're all just dying to hear what you have to say, Mr. Choudary" - the tone is usually (and rightly) much more inquisitive and hostile.
I've always been of the belief that extremists deserve to be heard as much as anyone else. Having extreme opinions, however vile, is not a crime and should not be treated like one.

My problem with this K, is that people like Choudary need the media to survive, like the rest of us need oxygen. He might be questioned very sharply by journalists but he can never be pinned down. He never gives a straight answer to any question, which is what his training as a lawyer has taught him.
I think he has been in the Media enough. I have always been a supporter of free speech but people like Choudary just spreads poison in every word he utters. I can't see the point in continuing to allow him to spread this poison on primetime TV, as we playing straight into his hands.

Well, it didn't take long !
Tabloid criticism of Islam4UK and Choudary since news of the proposed march first became public has, generally, been vitriolic. The Sun printed an article on 6 January 2010 which claimed that Choudary was in receipt of state benefits in the region of £25,000 and said: "British-born father-of-four Choudary is notoriously vague about whether he works or has other money coming in." It continued, "He is understood to be employed by a Muslim organisation on a shoestring wage, which allows him to claim income support and free time to spread his hatred."[71] Choudary had first commented on the matter to the Evening Standard months earlier, stating "I don't think it's of any importance".[72] While generally, follow-up reporting of The Sun's article was restricted to other tabloid newspapers, on 12 January Choudary was asked to clarify the matter by the ITN reporter Angus Walker. Choudary replied "The money belongs to Allah and if it is given, you can take it. You don't lie and you don't cheat – that is what the prophet said. I am not doing anything illegal."[73] Choudary, appearing on the BBC's The Daily Politics on 14 January, was asked by its presenter, Andrew Neil, for his opinions on the banning of Islam4UK, before being asked to comment on his financial status, claiming that it was "relevant to our viewers". Choudary told Neil that his finances were a personal matter, and that he was "doing something, and I don't want to discuss that with you. I'm not on Jobseeker's allowance, but at the same time I have family allowance, I have very firmly held views which I'm propagating at the same time." Responding to the media's criticism of him, Choudary said "I do believe that people have been whipped up into an anti-Islam anti-Muslim frenzy
So, it appears to be income support, because he isn't paid enough wages, and child benefit, which isn't means tested.
By the way, if he has 4 kids, that child benefit would amount to £61.15 a week, or £3179 pa, tax free.
