TERROR WARNING: UK cities vulnerable to ISIS gun attacks because of lack of armed police

TERROR WARNING: UK cities vulnerable to ISIS gun attacks because of lack of armed police

BRITISH cities are vulnerable to terror attacks carried out by Islamic State (ISIS) gunmen because of a chronic shortage of armed police, Scotland Yard has warned.

Britain does not have enough armed police to stop an ISIS gun attack, it has been claimed
Metropolitan Police sources revealed that major towns and cities outside London are woefully unprepared in the event that jihadi fanatics attempt a Paris-style massacre.

The dire warning comes after one police sharpshooter said the British public was wildly over confident about the authorities’ ability to stop Islamist gunmen, even claiming that many forces are “not equipped to deal with active shooters”. 
All armed officers are currently volunteers, and fears have been raised that Britain does not have enough to defend itself from the modern terror threat.

The situation has got so bad that Scotland Yard has now reportedly expressed its concerns to Theresa May that further inaction could lead to a bloody atrocity.

One police source said: “Ask a regional force how long it would take them to respond to a terror attack and watch them squirm.”

The warning comes after capital cities across Europe were put on red alert over the possibility of simultaneous ISIS attacks.

Last month jihadi gunmen slaughtered 130 people in a bloody massacre in Paris, whilst the terrorists’ propaganda has frequently featured the ‘reconquering’ of Rome.

David Cameron has revealed that British security services foiled seven major terrorist plots this year alone as the threat from ISIS-inspired lunatics continues to grow.
