Touch wood.. there's been no major UK terrorist attack since 2017. Although, with tensions in Palestine as they are, I doubt that will last for long.
Back then, there seemed like there was one every 3 weeks. What's the reasonings? Counter- terrorism working overtime? a lot of the terrorists died in Syria/Iraq with ISIS? Imams and parents being more mindful of what is being taught?
Counter terrorism I would imagine and Muslims themselves making the old bill aware of extremistsQuote:

Blair was holding hands with BushQuote:
