London Attacks

Proceeding contribution from Peter Bottomley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 March 2017. It occurred during Ministerial statement on London Attacks.

Some of us were present 38 years ago and nearby when Airey Neave was martyred. The lesson that we learned then was not to damn a community because of the actions of a single person. The message from the imam at the Worthing House of Prayer and Peace was:

“We will always be with those who work for peace.”

May I suggest that we try to disappoint those who calculate that publicity and public reaction will work in their favour by making sure that we work together?
