LONDON 6 December:- STUNNED LAST NIGHT at a Progress group event at the House of Commons to hear the Prevent strategy's architect, former Minister for Counter Terrorism, Hazel Blears, admit ignorance on what Islamism is.
‘We don’t know enough about Islamism,’ she told the meeting.
So she has been bluffing all this time. Now we know. Yet she gave £70million to 'capacity build' mosques and projects that would prevent extremists becoming violent, without a real clue about what she was doing.
Jenny Taylor blogged the launch of a controversial new report on ‘Islamophobia’ for the Spectator.
