Are they going to be in streets? outside buildings where tourists go or are they just
going to sit in vans all day waiting for a call?
What I would be worried about is if they post a armed officer outside a museum or
high target area? Could he be jumped by a Jihadi and his gun being turned on the
public. You need to secure these weapons. either by some sort of lock/code? or have other
officers with them at all times.

They could have bio-metric locking where they can only be used by the owner.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-3378901/Terror-couple-jailed-life-7-7-anniversary-bomb-plot.html . A couple who plotted a deadly terror attack on London to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the July 7 bombings have each been jailed for life. Mohammed Rehman, 25, and his now ex-wife Sana Ahmed Khan, 24, were inspired by Islamic State and became radicalised after marrying in October 2013. They kept their marriage secret from friends and relatives and had not shown any strong interest in Islam before then, the Old Bailey heard. Rehman, calling himself the Silent Bomber, went online to ask Twitter users for suggestions on which target to choose - Westfield shopping centre or the Tube. With money from Khan, he stockpiled the chemicals needed to make a huge bomb at his family home in Reading. He even filmed himself setting off a small explosion in his back garden. She had underlined passages of the Koran which authorised the use of violence, ignoring the words which say it is only appropriate for self-defence. The couple repeatedly went online to research the July 7 bombers who carried out suicide attacks on the London transport network in 2005 in which 52 people died and more than 770 were injured. Khan helped fuel Rehman's violent ambition by paying for chemicals bought on eBay. A jury unanimously found the couple guilty of preparing for an act of terrorism in May this year. The couple, who were separated by two prison guards in the dock, sat quietly as Rehman was sentenced to life with a minimum of 27 years. He was also sentenced to 12 years to run concurrently for possessing an article for terrorist purposes. Khan will serve a minimum of 25 years. |

I'm aware of that case Leopard. Fair to say that particular couple don't appear to be the brightest elements of the threat we face.Its the well trained, individually armed Mumbai style attacks that concern me most.On the odd occasion I visit Westfield I can't get out quick enough.

This Multiculturalism seems to be going well then.
Why are hundreds of Armed Officers required to police the streets against the threat of people who follow a Peaceful Religion? I'm guessing that there won't be much of a presence of these Armed Police in Newham and Tower Hamlets because the Wannabe Terrorists are unlikely to threaten their own. |

It works if you need cheap labour. For example Merkel explicity said Multiculturalism had "utterly failed" in 2010 and then accepted 1m refugees.

At least one will be specifically targetted to show our vulnerability in the near future. Hard to combat a suicidal attacker,armed or not.
