the speech as the "most misrepresented thing he had ever said". Cameron has criticised ASBOs as "reacting" to crime, rather than reducing it, and argued that they should be replaced with "challenging community punishments." In the same speech he also argued that young offenders should be shown "a lot more love" and more understanding into why youths commit crime, specifically calling for more youth counselling, education and training.

Upon the launch of the "Big Society" on 19 July 2010 it was deemed damaging and unworkable by the Labour Party, the national press, and the country's two largest unions. Counter-Extremism policy In the midst of the bombing campaign of ISIS in Iraq and the raft of murders by fundamentalist Islamic terrorists in the past decade both at home and abroad, Cameron outlined in a speech in July 2015 a plan based on what he termed "liberal
