Speaking exclusively to Newsnight, the former head of MI6 Sir Richard Dearlove said terrorism did not present a "systemic threat" to the UK and that the media had overreacted to terror incidents. Although it's little comfort to the victims of terrorism, I have to agree with him. That doesn't mean that terrorist attacks aren't awful when they happen and that we shouldn't take the threat seriously, but the danger is *relatively* small in the UK. You don't even need to go back that far to reach a time when the threat was much greater (see: the IRA), but we got through it, albeit with a fair few deaths. ... Copied to Clipboard!
