Parsons Green attack'Iraqi' refugee suspected of trying to bomb Tube 'was known to police' - as new CCTV emerges appearing to show alleged bomber
“I never think it’s helpful for anybody to speculate on what is an ongoing investigation.”
Theresa May has rebuked Donald Trump for suggesting the people responsible for an explosion on a London tube train were known to the Metropolitan police. The prime minister expressed her frustration as she spoke for the first time about the “cowardly attack” at Parsons Green underground station in west London, which injured 29 people.
Amber Rudd has emphatically denied Donald Trump had received leaked security information when he tweeted about the terror attack at Parsons Green station. The Home Secretary said the US President's tweet was "pure speculation". "Another attack in London by a loser terrorist," Mr Trump tweeted shortly after the explosion on the Tube. "These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!"

'Loser terrorist' is a statement of the obvious. Aren't they all?
If Trump was privy to anything, he was an utter moron to put it out there on Twitter. Ongoing investigations are kept quiet for good reasons.

I do not remember where I heard this or even who said it but.... 35,000 Jihadist are known to reside in the UK with 3000 under surveillance plus another smaller number have tags (increased surveillance)...
When has anything happened, that some agency later said, " Oh they were on our watch list"! As if that makes it all better...
How did the idiots think this was all going to work out ?

I think the PM was angry that Trump accurately reflects the frustration of the British majority.

Lord help you if that 35,000 number is correct.
History is going to look at the whole migration escapade as total folly. Assuming that the UK and European Countries survive to write that history.
