In a statement the Trustees of the Muslim Community Centre, St Judes, Plymouth, said: "We, the trustees of the Muslim Community Centre at St Jude's are as shocked as everyone by the recent events that have unfolded at Exeter and Plymouth".

Just as the community leaders of the Hamara Youth Centre in Beeston, Leeds, where the 7/7 plot was partly hatched and planned, and the computers found to have their hard drives infected with jihadi propaganda, and it was all happening right under the noses of one man who in the aftermath was shocked, astonished, astounded, that this moderate peace loving community centre was associated with the suicide bombers, but was subsequently found to be quite the firebrand and bigot himself.

I would be so shocked and astounded if we were to see a repeat of that in the locale of Plymouth.
