Donald Trump's wild statement about Muslim immigrants into America have been roundly criticised by Malala Yousufzai, the youngest Nobel Laureate ever.

In an interview with Channel 4 in the UK about the "wild things being said about Islam and Muslims,' Malala said: "It's important that whatever politicians say, whatever the media say, they should be really, really careful about it. If your intention is to stop terrorism, do not try to blame the whole population of Muslims for it because it cannot stop terrorism. It will radicalise more terrorists."

Elsewhere, she described Trump's charges as "tragic' and "full of hatred, full of this ideology of being discriminative towards others."
