She did not authorise it for use in a campaign against Islam.
Agree Willow, don’t think I would have been happy if it was my daughter.

Think most of us have seen the picture. A very personal picture too. I don’t think I would be gracious enough to let it be used for any purpose had I been a parent and I’d be well angry if some muppet had used it for political gain.
