Iran MP demands parliament prioritize 'Revenge on Trump' bill

The UK government has gained new powers to designate organizations as threats to national security under the National Security Bill, which could facilitate the designation of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization, according to Iran International's sources.

• The bill grants the government broader authority to classify groups as security threats without requiring a terrorism conviction.
• Previous attempts to designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization faced legal obstacles due to the organization's state status.
• The new legislation allows for designation based on national security grounds rather than traditional terrorism criteria.
• Government officials have indicated the IRGC could be among the first organizations reviewed under these expanded powers.. While Western media has focused on the procedural aspects of the legislation, Iranian outlets have emphasized the geopolitical implications and what they characterize as increased Western pressure on Iran's military institutions.
