(BBC) London is significantly better prepared for a terrorist attack than it was five years ago, a report has found.
Security expert Lord Harris said a “huge amount of work” had been done by London’s emergency services and key agencies since 2016.
He examined learning points from attacks in 2017 as well as ones in Streatham and at Fishmongers’ Hall.
But Lord Harris warned the threat of a terror attack remained “a real and present danger” in the capital.
He told BBC London: “There has been a huge amount of progress in the last five years — a lot of very effective work done within the emergency services, in partnership with each other and with other agencies, to try and improve our readiness to deal with an attack itself and, indeed, to prevent one.”
