“The Muslim Brotherhood does not accept the findings outlined in the Prime Minister’s statement. We do not accept that these conclusions can be based on credible evidence.

The Muslim Brotherhood engaged in an open and honest way with Sir John Jenkin’s review. It was hoped that the British government would seek to reciprocate that engagement. It is now clear that the Prime Minister did not intend to carry out a fair review into the Muslim Brotherhood. Our lawyers had repeatedly requested a right to reply to any criticism that might be presented during the review process. This was in order to ensure that the information which would no doubt go on to form government policy was well informed and credible. This has been denied to the Muslim Brotherhood.
