'You ain’t no Muslim, bruv' - David Cameron praises Leytonstone knife attack man’s heckler

British prime minister David Cameron has thanked the man who shouted “you ain’t no Muslim, bruv” in the aftermath of the Leytonstone knife attack.

The Conservative party leader described the incident in which a 56-year-old man was injured as “hideous”.

Eyewitnesses said the attacker said “this is for Syria” during the incident on Saturday, with another man then heard to shout “you ain’t no Muslim, bruv”.
