Our politicians are saying that this latest suicide bomber was radicalised in Yemen to carry out the work of Al Qaeda. However what made him go to Yemen if he had no prior thoughts about his terrorist action? Would the seeds of this British establishment not provide him with the will do take some action? Are there others like him festering in the Halls of Residence?

Most students spend their spare time protesting about something, it's just that not many shove a load of Semtex up their a r s e hole.
No and probably.

Your question would appear to require respondents to reach a conclusion based on no evidence whatsoever - whether for or against. Whatever replies you get can be no more than guesses.

They used to be a breeding ground for spies so I suppose now they haven't much to spy on any more with collapse of the USSR they need something else to fill the void. Shame it had to be this.

Someone I met recently said they were walking through the corridor of a uni in south London when they saw a sign saying Muslim Prayer Room. Needless to say there were no signs, literally or otherwise, of prayer rooms for other denominations.

They are also a breeding ground for politicians.

Universities have always been the breeding ground for ridiculousity. Amazing that it houses the type of people that will be running this country and its industries.

No evidence? Don't make me laugh! It came out of the mouths of MI5 and his involvement with suspected terrorists. It is only the politicians who like to think Britain is a terrorist free country and must be indoctrinated elsewhere. Maybe they are in a state of denial.

Jumbuck you can at least ignore politicians.

Maybe my slur on our universities should have also encompassed the ficticious learning centres many of which have been closed down.
