WhatsApp Ban in UK?

The recent news says that if British Prime Minister David Cameron could push for a ban on the WhatsApp and Snapchat if he wins this year’s general election. The move would be the result of new surveillance plans proposed in the wake of the terror attacks in Paris, France.
He made it clear that he wants to stop the use of communications methods which cannot be read by the security services even with a warrant. That would include communications and social media apps WhatsApp and Snapchat which encrypt their data.
WhatsApp added end-to-end encryption to it’s service in late-2014.
In practice, this is imposible to stop the use of these messaging Apps. Even when the New government could impose a ban and remove it from Playstore or many other repositories.
The recent certain terrorist attack leads sign of concern to many countries. Sydney, Peshavar, Assam and now in Paris. Recently DoT ( Department Of Telecomm) in India also banned 32 website by stating that these repositories includes anti nationalist content. Russia also banned many anti nationalist web adderesses.
Now this arises a big question here that does enhancement in communication technology creating a flaw in national/worldwide security? And the Final conclusion to prevent this is ban them.
