He wants to put forward some pivotal political points; those points being, why, since the Tories took over have 19,000 police officers gone and the number of armed police halved? Nobody is saying Blair's NL didn't do the same thing. He's guilty of following Bush into Iraq whilst making police cuts here but the Tories jumped on NL policy and continued those cuts to the point of crippling our British police force.
He wants to point out, and so he should, that austerity was not about us all being in this together because when you have to cut a police force and emergency services down the middle, it doesn't work for the common good.
He's not justifying terrorism but he's linking terrorist acts with government policy and he's absolutey right to do that. The Green party, the Lib Dems and UKIP will do the same.
