Terrorist Attacks (Paris)

Proceeding contribution from Diane Abbott (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 January 2015. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Terrorist Attacks (Paris).

Does the Home Secretary agree that while there cannot be a scintilla of an excuse for the psychopathic slaughter that we saw in Paris last week, and that security measures must be paramount, in the long run one thing that will make us safe is to reach out to marginalised communities in this country that mirror those from which the killers came? We must ensure, whether by addressing education or employment, that those communities cannot become fishing grounds for people who pedal violence, hatred, and nihilism.
