Stop the Conveyor Belt to Terrorism




Today the Prime Minister made a statement on the death of Osama Bin Laden. I asked him about the conveyor belt to terrorism, and what action he would take against it.

The full exchange was:

Robert Halfon (Harlow): Would the Prime Minister confirm that the Government will take strong action against any conveyor belt Islamist groups, or individuals, that use what has happened to Bin Laden to promote jihad or violence?

David Cameron: My Honourable Friend makes a good point, and as we've discussed today we must combat not just violent extremism but extremism itself. I think there has been in the past a sense of a conveyor belt from some extremist groups and organisations taking people into a career of jihadism. We'll never deal with that unless we deal with the conveyor belt itself.
