From House of Commons
Hansard 11th July 2005
Mr. Sadiq Khan
(Tooting) (Lab):
I stood in the Chamber on Wednesday and said how joyous and
proud I was, as a lifelong Londoner, at my city's successful
bid to host the Olympics in 2012. Does my right hon. Friend
agree that today Londoners and the rest of the UK have even
more reason to be proud of Londoners—proud of the way heroic
Londoners of all faiths, races and backgrounds, victims,
survivors and passers-by, acted on Thursday; proud of the
way ordinary courageous Londoners carried on with their
business and stopped the criminals disrupting our life;
proud of the way our Mayor and emergency services behaved on
Thursday and onwards; and finally, proud of the way
Londoners have come together to stop any individual or
community being the victim of any misconceived backlash or
reprisal?
The Prime Minister:
I agree entirely with my hon. Friend.
