Victims of terrorist attacks in Britain call for an end to hatred against Muslims. This comes at a time when the Minister for Local Communities, Michael Gove, is preparing to issue a new official definition of extremism.

He warned the victims that it was “the height of irresponsibility’ on the part of some politicians to equate “being a Muslim with being an extremist” The letter added: "The single most important thing we can do is to isolate extremists and terrorists from the vast majority of British Muslims, who deplore such violence"
