Why would 20,000 Brits be that stupid?

David Cameron has said the Russian jet crash over Egypt was “more likely than not” caused by a bomb, as he defended his decision to halt all flights between the UK and the resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.

Speaking from Downing Street after a meeting of the UK government’s Cobra emergency committee, the prime minister said it could “take some time” to start flying UK tourists back from Sharm. 

More than 20,000 British citizens have been stranded in Egypt since the government took the decision on Wednesday to advise against all but essential air travel to the airport. Ireland has also suspended flights.
