London ‘will not escape attack’

BRITAIN is an inevitable target for international terrorists despite police success in thwarting previous attacks, Metropolitan Police Commissioner John Stevens warned yesterday.

His fears were echoed by London Mayor Ken Livingstone’s grim forecast that it would be “miraculous” if the capital escaped attack.

Mr Stevens also revealed a team of Met police officers are in Madrid to see what lessons can be learned from last week’s bomb blast to improve security in Britain.
