Terror attacks - Britons stand defiant

ANYONE reflecting on the horrific events in Britain will have felt not just sympathy for but also empathy with our friends and relatives in the UK. 

Despite being two distinct islands with different political structures, we remain united by our friendship, our shared history, and our concern for the British people and overseas visitors and guests who have been targeted by extreme Islamists.

While we mourn and grieve with them for their loss of life and the carnage that ensued, we cannot but admire their courage and determination not to allow the atrocities to change the way they go about their daily lives.
