    Default London Bridge attack

    Rather unusually I have not added reports and commentaries on the terrorist attack @ London Bridge, on Saturday evening; in part as I was off the web. Secondly CT policy and practice has become a very public issue in the General Election, with the opposition rightly in my opinion being critical of Prime Minister May for her role as Home Secretary (2010-2016) and as Prime Minister.

    Then the "fog of war" has cleared remarkably quickly, not this time aided by "leaks" to the US media, with allegations and partial admissions that "something" was wrong on how one murderer was investigated - if not the other two. Sadly another body has just been found in the River Thames, of a missing French national and others remain missing (a Spaniard & an Australian).

    One report on the public's role (albeit three days ago):https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...idge-attackers .

    Another which refers to Manchester, eight days old:https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/may/28/mi5-launches-inquiries-into-failings-on-manchester-arena-bomber-salman-abedi-moss-side-raids-amber-rudd?
