You seem to have a problem with the press, especially the Tory supporting Daily Telegraph, but when the politically ultra-right Daily Mail refers to Cameron's famous 'hug-a-hoodie' speech in a report, then I'm afraid the die is cast.

Whatever his intention, historically he will now always been associated with that speech, and will be seen as a soft, namby-pamby bleeding heart, more concerned with the welfare of anti-social louts, rather than offering support and a more secure future to the victims of crime.
Careless talk costs (political) lives.
