The thread is about the UK attacks. Start a thread on terrorism elsewhere if you want by all means. But if people want to criticise British gun control laws as per page 1 of this thread , then kindly stick to the gun stats for terror attacks in the UK

We are not talking about the US but the UK, the subject matter of this thread. I ask again: what firearms have been used by Islamist terrorists in the UK?

Which attacks?

Um...yes he does, hence his reference to budget cuts.

I don't think any of them - apart from Irish ones - have had firearms in the UK

LOL! You're funny!

Pakistani Scholars Issue Fatwa Against Suicide Attacks

So how many guns were used by these terrorists?

The mosques of both the Manchester bomber and the London Bridge jihadis reported concerns about the men concerned to the security services but no action was taken. A failure more of MI5 and the police rather than the Muslim community

Exactly.

Been condemned by the Muslim Council of Britain too.

And here's another Londoner who likes his beer more than he fears the terrorists: Twitter "If they make you leave your beer behind, they've won."

He'd had a few pints by his own admission....
