Kennedy: Overwhelming Majority Of Muslims Condemn Terrorist Attacks

Reacting to the Prime Minister’s statement in the House of Commons on last Thursday’s terrorist bombings in London, Charles Kennedy paid tribute to both the Prime Minister and the emergency services for their handling of last Thursday’s crisis. Mr Kennedy asked the Prime Minster if he had been able to speak to the representatives of the Muslim faith, adding:

‘An image from yesterday that was very encouraging was the image of our church leaders standing shoulder to shoulder to show that irrespective of faith, all right thinking people have no countenance whatsoever for the desperate approach these people [took when they] carried out the bombings.

The overwhelming majority of those of Muslim faith in Britain condemn completely the people who would perpetrate such deeds.’
