British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said he feared the country’s achievements in building a multi-ethnic, multi-faith democracy were being undermined, as he spoke out against a rise in extremism and criminality.
“In recent weeks and months, we’ve seen a shocking increase in extremist disruption and criminality,” Mr. Sunak said in an address late on March 1 outside his Downing Street office.
“We are a country where we love our neighbours, and we are building Britain together. But I fear that our great achievement in building the world’s most successful multi-ethnic multi-faith democracy is being deliberately undermined.”
