British Muslim women post a list of their achievements on Twitter telling David Cameron that they DON'T need his help learning English

British Muslim women have taken to Twitter to highlight their personal achievements after David Cameron is said to have privately suggested that the 'traditional submissiveness of Muslim women' could be one of the reasons young men are becoming radicalised. 

The social media site saw the hashtag #traditionallysubmissive trend after the women began posting images of themselves holding up sheets of white paper with their successes written on them, and the hashtag.

Those behind the bullet-pointed notes said they had been 'hurt' by the Prime Minister's comments.

All smiles...but Mr Cameron's news that he's planning to spend £20million encouraging more Muslim women to learn English has been met with derision

The Prime Minister is said to have privately argued that one of the main reasons why young Muslim males fall under the spell of fanatics is because their mothers have too much of a subordinate role within their communities to argue against the influence of the extremists.
Last week, he pledged £20million on English lessons for Muslim women living in the UK.
