		+	=='Risk, Threat and Security'==
		+	Smith was a member of a private seminar series which met between May 2006 and January 2008 and produced an article in the ''RUSI Journal'' called '[[Risk, Threat and Security: The Case of the United Kingdom]]'.

It suggested therefore the partial removal of defence policy from democratic control.

It complained of a ‘lack of leadership from the majority which in misplaced deference to ‘multiculturalism’ [has] failed to lay down the line to immigrant communities’. <ref>Gwyn Prins & Robert Salisbury, '[http://www.rusi.org/downloads/assets/Prins_and_Salisbury_RUSI_Journal_FEB08.pdf Risk, Threat and Security: The Case of the United Kingdom (PDF)]', ''RUSI Journal'', Feb 2008, Vol. 153, No. 1</ref>
