Counter-terrorism

Proceeding contribution from Elliot Morley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Counter-terrorism.
I, too, commend the Home Secretary for her response—and, indeed, the response at all levels—to this incident. Does she agree that, apart from the murderous intent to inflict pain and injury on innocent victims, the intention of terrorism is also to disrupt people’s everyday lives and to disrupt the economy of our country? In that respect, while there must be a review of security, will she assure the House that it will be proportionate and risk based and that we will send a very clear signal to terrorists that we will not give in to terrorism at any level in this country?
