jinglbellsfrocks - I think you misunderstand what I have said. I have not denied (in fact, I have acknowledged) terrorist threats - it's the use of scaremongering the public that I referred to. Frightening British citizens is not going to deal with the problem so I see no reason to frighten ordinary people that can do little about any of it - it serves no purpose.
In the link Ana has given, paragraphs 10, 11 and 12 are highly pertinent. People have been warning for many years about the problem in Birmingham and those people were labelled as racists and anti-Islam - by the very people who will soon be echoing Cameron's comments.
Paragraph 17 - refers to Twitter accounts; what about the Dark Web - do they believe that terrorists are unaware of that and won't have the capability to switch (if they haven't already)?
Paragraph 18 - well, that's a bit of a turnaround. See above comment of mine. I would also add to the comment The PM has called on several occasions for the protection and promotion of “British values” which is constantly shouted down with demands of 'and what are British values, they are no different to anyone else's; define Britishness' etc. as a counterweight to the perceived malignant Islamization of Britain. Even that comment carries a get-out clause. He now believes the government has been too soft in a number of ways - how many times do we have to hear that - how many times do the public have to voice their concern without being labelled an 'ist'? Apparently, when it becomes too obvious to ignore or explain away.
I have stated openly on another thread that those who make such comments against those who have shown concern are sleepwalking into a nightmare that they will be 'shocked' could ever happen in Britain.
The above is to reiterate what I've already pretty much said over the weeks on other threads. Scaring the public isn't going to solve anything - preventing the return of those who have gone to fight in Syria, on the hand, would be a more positive move. I could list others but, frankly, what's the point.
