Dr. Condoleezza Rice visit

Asked for further information regarding a mosque in Blackburn who had withdrawn its invitation to Condaleeza Rice to visit it this weekend, apparently because of the prospect of protests locally, and what was the reaction to it, the PMOS replied that as the Prime Minister had shown here, the PMOS did not want to comment directly on the situation because he did not know the circumstances. However, a more general point was that however strongly people disagreed, what was important was that we did our utmost to increase understanding, not decrease it. Therefore that was what should guide us.
