If there are indeed such Mosques why have they not been closed before now?

One also has to ask "what is stopping a terror suspect from worshipping in another Mosque, and if he does will he then also try to turn that Mosque into a radical Mosque, or will he be refused admission"?

I dont think we have a radical anything in mid Wales. I certainly haven't seen a Mosque since living here, I'm sure there are a few lurking somewhere.
Any radical Druids Ratter?
I've just checked online because I was wondering where the people who run the excellent restaurant in the village might go to worship.

Apparently there is a mosque in Bognor Regis and one in Worthing

I don't know if they are radical or not - I suspect not
Zeuhl, lol, I'm not sure there are such things, I wonder what radical druids would get up to? Interesting.
There are 4 in Brighton; that Den of Iniquity

They may be radical - or vegan, or LGBT, or just heavily involved in community art projects
Probably aog, not to far away in Brum.
Dear AOG,
Don't know and don't care. I am against the closing of any rational places of worship in which I include mosques, even tho' I am an atheist.
It is unlikely that the vast majority of muslims would tolerate any radical islamists. Let's cool it in our relations with muslims.
If we over-react to the radical maniacs by punishing innocent muslims then the maniacs win!
Not generalising on a few cases by promoting panic is the best policy.
Ty for your weekly publication of the Mail's anti-islamic publications but no thanks. If we wanted to, we could always buy rabble-rousing papers.

Since I am not a Muslim, and I don't know any Muslims, I have absolutely no way of knowing - and neither I suspect do most non-Muslim people.
Not that I've noticed. There are several mosques in this area, and as far as I know, none are radical. One of them was established in the late 19th century, another in the 1920s. I do know that the house of the Imam of one of those mosques has been targeted by people who are, in my opinion, too stupid and ignorant to use what brains they were born with.

To address your second question, for the same reason that places of worship used by radical Christian groups are not closed - because we have freedom of religion, which means that we can worship (or not) where we please and whatever deity or deities take our fancy.

As for your third question, nobody knows the answer to that until it happens.

Perhaps the real question which should be addressed is how, given the "strictness" of the control laws, the agencies responsible for monitoring and tagging the missing suspects managed to lose them in the first place.
Theresa May is absolutely right to target mosques - especially those like the one from which the latest escapee absconded swathed in a burqa – the very same mosque where the son of Abu Hamza has made a bit of a name for himself.

Have I got a radical mosque near me?

Probably not...seeing as mosques are brick and timber structures with no consciousness.

Do some radical clerics preach at mosques near me? Possibly, but I've never been to a mosque - so I wouldn't know.

Religion and religious teachings have zero interest for me.
I don't know

Do we have a list?

I don't think you can actually 'solvitquick' this time by simply blaming the messenger, but then in such cases as these it is always best to blame it on the 'Right-Wing' press, for reporting on sensitive issues, some would rather see swept under the carpet.

But this type of thing has been going on for years, take this report from as far back as 2002, and reported by the Guardian no less, hardly a rabbel-rising Right-Wing paper by any stretch of the imagination.

Yet another such report this time from as far back as 2003

Perhaps after Theresa May's latest clamp down, the police will stop trying not to tread on broken glass, by making such excuses.

/// Police wanted to make clear that the raid was not against the mosque itself or those who went there to pray, but that it had targeted specific terrorist suspects, the spokesman stressed. ///
Dear AOG,
If I ever solve anything, I seldom if ever do it quickly! - the curse so many of us suffer thro' our silly choice of names (lol).
In this complcated case I offered no solution but just expressed my views, particularly on aspects of the media and my ideas of the best approach to so-called terrorists.
My phrase "generalising on the particular" was not aimed at the burka case alone. It is possible to keep focus on a subject over decades and leap to publicise a relevant happening and "report" it of proportion, often with biassed comment.
I had professional and personal reasons to travel to London, Guildford and Birmingham regularly during the IRA bombings. I never gave the thought to being blown-up. That's the British way - we don't let loonies terrorise us.
We all need to know what's happening daily of course. But reporting can be out of proportion.
On politics. My comments were not aimed at the tory press in general nor even the tories.
You are too young to remember Mrs Thatchers words on the IRA in which she warned against giving them the "oxygen of publicity". Those were wise words and equally relevant today. Facts yes - over-cooking them no.
On this case the burka device is far outweighed by the failure of the tagging system.
Regards,
SIQ.
