Seven UK terror attacks ‘stopped’ in last 6 months

The move would be “the biggest increase in British security spending since the 7/7 bombings in London” that killed dozens in 2005 and will be announced by Prime Minister David Cameron later on Monday, according to the Guardian.

He said: “We should be clear that those attacks could have happened in Belgium, it could have happened in Denmark, it could have happened in Sweden, it could happen here”.

We have been aware, obviously, of these cells operating in Syria, that are radicalising people in our own countries, potentially sending people back to carry out attacks.

“It was the sort of thing we were warned about”, said the prime minister.

He added: “We will also step up our efforts on aviation security, helping countries around the world to put in place the tightest security measures possible so that we can continue to enjoy places like Egypt and Tunisia and continue with our way of life we hold so dear”.

Cameron also said there were “hopeful signs” from Saturday’s talks in Vienna on Syria that progress was being made on how to deal with the Islamic State (IS).

He said: “Isil don’t recognise a border between Iraq and Syria and neither should we”.

Cameron Well, I think we should look at the timetable.

Emphasising that people should not be cowed by terrorists, he said that he would be willing to take his children to tomorrow’s England-France football match at Wembley tomorrow evening.

Mr Cameron said that he needed to “build the argument and convince people” that Britain should get involved.

Although the U.S., United Kingdom and Russian Federation share strategy objectives over the elimination of IS they remain at odds over tactics and the subsequent role of President Bashar al Assad.

Mr Putin claims the campaign of airstrikes he launched in September is directed at “terrorists”, but the West accuses him of instead targeting the forces of the moderate opposition ranged against Assad.

The Prime Minister recognised Moscow’s concern over the need for Syria to maintain the apparatus and infrastructure of a state, and said that the United Kingdom believes the best way to achieve this is through a planned process of transition.
