What is an emergency COBRA meeting and what is it suppose to achieve? There has now been three in three months!
Cabinet office briefing room A. Tea, biscuits and a nice chat basically.

Don't Cobra meet weekly? It's effectively the cabinet and invited guests like high ranking military or emergency services depending on what's happened isn't it?. Sadiq Khan attending today. Emergency meeting is called in exceptional circumstances.
Give the politics a rest for the day like the parties have. Absolutely disgusting to try and get political points from a terrorist attack.

Ludicrous to link Corbyn to this. Total misrepresentation of what he said.
intercourse knows what deterrent we'd use? Bomb their country. Well that's an awful lot of innocent people you're gonna kill in London, Birmingham, Glasgow etc.

What sort of deterrent do you think would make a difference seeing that the people who commit these atrocities are usually suicide bombers or willing to die for their twisted cause?
What skrill said, apart from the corbyn link.

If anyone has an answer on how to combat radical extremism in the UK then I would be intrigued. What are we going to do? This has got nothing to do with immagration as most of the extremists doing this are homegrown and from Britain. People can say 'more censorship on the internet' but there are many other forms of brainwashing people than just the internet, just look at the Nazis.

Having spoken to Muslim friends in London one in particular didnt like the values of the West and felt it to liberal eg mentioned liberal women who sleep around(though would never resort to terrorism).Has a point though sadly some(very small minority) take it to the next level and attack the west based on warped fanatical religious views Different ideology's based on different cultures and I cant see it changing unless the world in these peoples eyes become more Islamic.

You got a point.Obviously there is riches and opportunity here and people want a bit of that(law of nature). I have pure respect/admiration and love for the genuine ones who I have met who live their faith with good actions and not just words though

I'm very liberal and I believe in the right of freedom of religion. But I have to agree with Ronnie, if you don't like the way of life in one particular country, especially if it's not your country of origin or you are a second generation immigrant, then why live here? If you don't want people drinking in bars and women being allowed to do what they want, then urine off and leave us to it. Likewise, I wouldn't want to live in a country where my girlfriend would not be allowed to drive a car, so I don't move to Saudi Arabia.
