More Than 23,000 People Are a Terror Threat to UK, Home Office Says, on London Bridge Attack Ceremony

17

A recent report from top intelligence and law enforcement officials shows that the United Kingdom is home to more than 23,000 people who are direct threats to the safety and security of the rest of the citizenry.

The threat assessment comes just as the region if recognizing its anniversary of the devastating London Bridge terror attacks.

According to the Home Office, about 3,000 of these 23,000 identified individuals are actually plotting hundreds of terror hits right now.

From The Mirror:

More than 23,000 people are a terror threat to the UK, the Home Office revealed …

About 3,000 of them are “subjects of interest” plotting 500 outrages.

A further 20,000 individuals have been investigated and had their cases closed but may still pose a threat.

Police and the security services have foiled 25 Islamist plots since June 2013 — 12 since March last year.

The figures were released a year to the day three terrorists inspired by Islamic State killed eight people and wounded 48 at London Bridge and Borough Market.

The terrorists drove a van into crowds then jumped out to stab people before police shot them dead.

The Home Office expects the UK threat level to remain “severe” — meaning an attack is highly likely — for the next two years.

A sennior counter-terror officer urged the public to remain vigilant.

Several leading U.K. officials made remarks on the anniversary. More, from Dispatchist:

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Dean Haydon said: “The police and security services are working extremely hard, foiling and disrupting terrorist attacks all the time.”

Home Secretary Sajid Javid will tomorrow announce new measures to strengthen anti-terror operations.

Today, survivors of the London Bridge atrocity were due to be joined by bereaved families, emergency service staff and politicians for a remembrance service at Southwark Cathedral.

The best way to stop terrorists achieving their aims is to stand by our values of tolerance and fairness.”

Prime Minister Theresa May said:

The attack on London Bridge and Borough Market was a cowardly attempt to strike at the heart of our freedoms by targeting people enjoying their Saturday night with friends and family.

The many stories of courage that night will always stay with me – such as Ignacio Echeverria, who died after confronting the terrorists with the only thing he had, his skateboard.

Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, said:

Today our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the eight people who died in the London Bridge terror attack last year.

I was honoured to present a Pride of Britain award to PC Wayne Marques who risked his life in the attack to protect others.

And I pay tribute to our brave emergency service personnel who are the first to respond to these horrific acts and put themselves on the line to keep us safe, day in day out.

That may be the case, but the internet is being purged of islamophobia, which is far more politically correct.

And meanwhile, muslim apologists and muslims imprison anyone who dares to spread the truth there about muslims raping England’s little girls and boys. They took your guns englishmen, for just such an occasion as this.

Am I as a Brit {native} reassured by those figures that 23,000 suspected muslim terrorists are running around free in my country while another 20,000 “may still pose a threat” but the security services know where they are {sometimes} ?

No, not particularly, and this next point goes straight to the heart of the problem, the stupid inadequate woman supposedly “in charge” of the sharia compliant British regime has the audacity to speak in Parliament about the need for US, the bloodied native and family victims of muslim terrorist atrocities to show these unwanted people yet MORE “tolerance” to avoid being labeled “far right” or shock horror “racist”.

The interested reader of these many posts sitting at home miles away can perhaps now understand why Blair
removed the crimes of sedition and treason from our statute book years ago while he had the chance.

He knew what he was doing, he was protecting the future and past ruling “elite” because he knew what he’d done and how dangerous it was going to turn out to be.

At least these suspects have been identified. I will wait for Sajid Javid’s statement before assessing further.

Actually I thought the CIA reported that a lot of terrorists are quite educated. Never underestimate the enemy.

This 23,000 are these the ones who might resist being attacked by Muslims? We have to asks as the UK seems more intent on arresting and prosecuting those Islam chooses to target – the Islamophobic’s.
After ll it is those who warn of what Islam is doing who are deemed a threat to society.
Its as if the Nazis were threatening Britain and the UK decided to arrest all the Winston Churchill’s so as to appease Nazis and let them conquer in Peace.
Just a horse of a different color that’s all.

A nice small army. But enough to charge the palace and hold your Queen hostage. Perhaps throw one of her beloved Corgi dogs out the window as a warning she’s next.

Believe it or not, throwing out one of the Corgi dogs will ENRAGE the Brits more than throwing the Queen out. 😉

They will proclaim Britain as Moslem land. The only way to remove them is to kill them now. You had your chance to just deport them.

Start a boycott of muslime businesses and services now! Hit them economically and financially where it hurts. Their ultimate goal is known, to wipe out and destroy all non muslimes.

Q: What number of fatal Islamic terrorist attacks do authorities expect Britain will suffer this year?

A: About average – more than last year, but fewer than next year.

Considering it is the UK, i figured the article was about Tommy and his gang. The Home Office has a new head, a muslim. These investigations will go nowhere. Just like pencil neck Eric Holder stopped the prosecution of the Black Panthers that were already CONVICTED!
