Terror threat to UK 'is growing'

Terror threat to UK 'is growing'

"The home secretary has described the terrorism threat facing the UK as "severe" and "growing".

In an interview for the News of the World, Jacqui Smith said it was imperative for the police to be able to detain suspects for longer.

Ms Smith is facing a Labour rebellion over plans to extend the time suspects can be held without charge to 42 days
".

If as it is being claimed by the Home Secretary that the terrorist threat facing the UK is severe and growing, surely she has a duty to inform the Foreign and Commonwealth Office so that they can put the warning up on their website to deter tourists and business people from coming to this country and being at risk?

What's the betting that there will be a "Terror" alert just before the 42 day vote?
