mr excellent work of the police and mi5. mr speaker, iend excellent work of the police and mi5.e and the other place are with the victims, their families and all those affected by the attacks. i commend this statement to the house. i would like to thank the home secretary for prior sight of the report and prior sight of her statement. it was sad to read this report and reimagine and almost relive these terrible, terrorist incidents we have seen this year. it must be infinitely sad for the relatives of the victims and the survivors. and as the home secretary has said, the thoughts of everybody in this house are with the survivors and their relatives. this report is by way of a quality assurance of a series of internal reviews. because, as david anderson himself points out in his report, internal processes have potential downsides. complacency, the concealment of unpalatable facts and slowness to see the need for change. so it is important that david anderson endorses, so far as he feels qualified to do so, the conclusions and recommendations of the internal reviews. across the at

this year's attacks were a shock to the security service mi5, and today's report makes clear there dome changes. there are 126 recommendations in all. perhaps the most important — that information from here needs to be shared more freely with local police and other partners. the home secretary responded today by saying that police would have the money they needed. we will shortly be announcing the budgets for policing for 2017/18. i am clear that we must ensure counter—terrorism policing has the resources needed to deal with the threats that we face. as well as these four attacks, nine more plots have been stopped in the last year, and officials warn the threat remains unprecedented. gordon corera, bbc news. the prime minister has been warned by some of her own conservative colleagues that nothing must be done in the brexit talks which threatens the integrity and unity of the united kingdom. the warning was delivered after yesterday's setback for theresa may when the democratic unionist party of northern ireland objected to proposals for the irish border. labour said the government's

neither mi5 nor the police had any reason to anticipate the attack.ng the manchester arena attack, simon abedi was also a closed subject of interest, and so not under active investigation. in early 2017, m15 nonetheless received intelligence on him which was assessed as not being related to terrorism. in retrospect, the intelligence can be seen to be highly relevant. had investigation been reopened at the time, it cannot be known whether his plans could have been stopped. m15 assessed that it would have been unlikely. across the attacks, including manchester arena, david anderson notes that ct policing got a great deal right. however, in relation to manchester, he also commented that "it is conceivable that the attack might have been averted had the cards fall differently." she set out the actions to be taken, including better co—ordination and better use of data, ah chee added intelligence was imperfect. —— but she added. not every attack can be stopped. as we do not live in a surveillance state, it will always be a challenge to law enforcement to st

it makes you wonder whether this has been fed to the papers because of the critical report into mi5 and abedi case, the suicide bomber in manchester. that is possible. the abedi case and the khalid masood, boasts of those we re the khalid masood, boasts of those were possibly missed opportunities, but thousands of people are under surveillance and you can't be everywhere at all times. but we are seeing that two men have been charged with allegedly plotting to blow up the prime minister. that is really serious. they have also taken the opportunity to let us know that nine other terrorist plots have been foiled in the last 12 months. so although it is awful that some of them have not been foiled, the police and security services are working tirelessly to protect us and are doing a good job, succeeding in many cases. we should also look at whether they have enough resources. in the abedi case and some others, it seems that they were going to talk to him, but later on. maybe the week after. maybe there is a question of how much resources we are devoted to something that is a very serious is

an independent review into the terrorist attacks in london and manchester — has concluded that mi5 and had opportunities to prevent the manchester bombing which killed 22 people. the report details how agents received intelligence about the bomber, salman abedi before he killed 22 people at the manchester arena. despite this, the assessment concludes there is "no case for despair", saying most terror plots are foiled. here's our security correspondent, gordon corera. four terror attacks in three months, with some of those responsible known to the authorities, raising questions as to whether they could have been prevented. today a review said the bombing at manchester arena that killed 22 in may was the only one that might have been stopped. the bomber, salman abedi, had been known to the authorities in the past but was not under active investigation. however, data analysis of 20,000 former suspects flagged him as one of a few dozen people for further investigation. but nine days before a meeting about this, he carried out his attack and in the months leading up to that, new intelligenc
