Responses to David Cameron’s disappointing speech

counter terrorism 20/07/20154 Comments2 Mins ReadBy Editor


Prime Minister David Cameron today delivered what was pre-advertised as being his most important speech on the issue of so-called “Islamist Extremism”. The speech spoke of a five-year plan to tackle “fundamentalist terrorism”, and sparked an array of disappointed responses from think tanks, journalists, Muslims and non-Muslims in Britain. Criticisms of the speech ranged from it being “incoherent” and “ill-informed” all the way to “thoroughly misguided” and “destined to plunge this country, as well as the Middle East, into further chaos and misery.”

    There is no difference between Blair and Cameron’s sicknesses as both of them are suffering from illness called an Islamic phobia . David cameron should distance himself from Blair as soon as ha can.
