United Future condemns London bombers

United Future utterly abhors and condemns the cruel, senseless terrorist attacks on the people of London, and shares their grief, United Future leader Peter Dunne said today

"Because the family and personal links with Britain are still so strong, there will be many New Zealanders feeling very personally affected today by what has happened, and they will react in very personal ways.

"Many will seek the support and solace of prayer or some other form of spiritual expression. Others will express their sorrow in different ways.

"Overall, what is important at this time when so many are feeling personally numbed by what has happened is that we offer what support we can to those who are suffering.

"Like Tony Blair our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of these attacks," said Mr Dunne.
