Kennedy background

"The terrorists must not prevail"

Commenting on the attacks on the tube network and a bus in London, Charles Kennedy, leader of the Liberal Democrats, said:

"Everybody's thoughts must be with those who have died or been injured and their families and friends. I want to pay tribute to the emergency services for their swift response. What has happened is appalling and those who carried out these attacks must be brought to justice.

"These bombs have exploded as world leaders meet at Gleneagles. The moral contrast between those who seek to disrupt and destroy and those who are trying to build for the future could not be more stark. The terrorists must not prevail."
