On 14 June 2010 , a strategic briefing paper with a covering letter signed by Maajid Nawaz and Ed Hussain was sent to Charles Farr , director of the Office for Security and Counter-Terrorism ( OSCT ) . The briefing paper was intended to be a confidential review of the UK government 's anti-terrorism " Prevent " strategy following the 7 July 2005 London bombings , and was " particularly critical of the view that government partnerships with non-violent yet otherwise extreme Islamists were the best way to fend off Jihadism " . Although sent " by hard copy alone " with no electronic version , both letter and briefing paper were leaked by being scanned and published on the internet , provoking protests from various groups which had been identified in the Quilliam briefing as sympathetic or supportive of Islamist extremism
