It's a simple fact that none of the traditional radicalising pressures are present in the UK, which is to say excess male population, abject poverty, political repression etc. Even so it seems to be relatively easy to take Muslims, or even non Muslims, and turn them into radical Jihadists.

By contrast it is relatively unknown for radical Christians to set bombs or commit murder. Admittedly, there are a few cranks but they are a minuscule minority compared to the number leaving Europe and the US to join the Islamic State.
The firsters are mostly happy to live here and adapt their lives to the established culture. It's the seconds who cause trouble, looking for a more radical version of the culture that their parents were happy to leave behind.
