Londoners brace for possible jihad attacks

Jolly old England is ready for the New Year with heightened security, more weapons in sight and sniffer dogs at public transport. 

I feel so much better now.


From The Telegraph Jan 6 by Duncan Gardham

British Transport Police cancelled leave and called in extra officers after intelligence was received that terrorists could be planning attacks.

No mention of what kind of terrorist, I am guessing the Sandanistas? 

A security source said there was no “imminent” threat and the overall threat level had not changed but there was activity from one of a “handful” of extremist cells that cause concern at any time, leading to an adjustment in policing levels.

There it is, extremist Methodists must be the culprits. 

It is understood that “intelligence chatter” suggested that transport hubs in London could be a target.

It was unclear last night whether the terrorists were discussing suicide bomb attacks, or Mumbai-style shootings, or a combination of methods.

Oh wait, there it is; Mumbai-Style means they were dressed as Indians! 

A Whitehall source said: "The assessment of the threat to transport hubs has been revised. The view is that there is a greater risk than before, so steps are being taken as a precaution."

Sleep well, Englanders.
