The Yougov poll is an interesting exercise in seeing how public perception does not align well with available data [0].
Section 3 of the link breaks down how many people have been identified as at risk from particular ideologies.
'Mixed, unstable or unclear' accounts for 51%.
Islamic extremism is 24%.
Right-wing extremism is 22%.
Left wing extremism is less than 3%.
So, the data aligns well with what the original commentator was suggesting.
