During a comprehensive policy speech at the Conservative Party conference, Cameron stressed the right of religious communities to private education as part of a broader, “multi-racial” British society. “But in some madrassas we’ve gotten children being taught that they shouldn’t mix with people of other religions; being beaten; swallowing conspiracy theories about Jewish people,” he claimed.
