Starmer on New Southport Enquiry & Massive Failures that led to the Attack
A New Era of Terrorism: Southport Knife Attack Signals an Evolving Threat, Says Prime Minister. Axel Rudakubana, in a surprising courtroom twist, admitted to the murder of three young girls in Southport last summer, even before his trial officially began. This shocking development has prompted the government to reassess the nation's "entire counterterrorism system," as announced by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer. Sir Keir emphasized that modern attackers are becoming increasingly difficult to detect. He stated, "We have to be ready to face every threat. If the law needs to change to recognize this new and dangerous threat, then we will change it, and quickly." His remarks highlight the urgency of protecting children from the growing influence of online violence, which he described as a "tidal wave." The Prime Minister also pointed to the need for greater accountability within Whitehall and Westminster, criticizing the current system for its slow reaction to tragedies unless spurred by public outcry or persistent campaigning. "Time and again we see this pattern, and people are right to be angry about it. I'm angry about it. Southport must be a line in the sand, but nothing will be off the table in this inquiry. Nothing," Sir Keir declared, ensuring that substantial changes would follow. During a press conference, when asked if he had withheld information about the Southport case, Sir Keir confirmed that he was aware of details about the attacker, Axel Rudakubana, as they unfolded. However, he defended his decision to keep them confidential, stating, "There has been a failure here, and I do not intend to let any institution of the state deflect from their failures. The only losers if the details had been disclosed would be the victims and the families because it runs the risk the trial would collapse. I'm never going to do that because they deserve that justice." Sir Keir stressed that his actions were not only his personal choice but also aligned with the law. He reiterated the government's commitment to swiftly amend the law if necessary to address this evolving threat and announced a comprehensive review of the counter-extremism system. Rudakubana’s case revealed that he had been referred to the Prevent scheme three times in the 17 months leading up to the attack due to concerns about his obsession with violence. However, it was determined that he did not require intervention. In light of this, Sir Keir called for an inquiry, recognizing the emergence of "a new cohort, a new different threat, this individualised extreme violence." He concluded by assuring the public that the government would act immediately to implement changes, even before the inquiry's findings were available, emphasizing the urgency of protecting children and preventing further tragedies. "We need to get on with the change in the meantime and to reassure the public that every step has been taken to protect their children," he affirmed. This case serves as a grim reminder that the nature of terrorism is shifting, demanding a more proactive and adaptable approach to safeguarding the nation. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/pm-statement-on-the-southport-public-inquiry-21-january-2025 Based on a report by Sky News 2025-01-22 -

Trump Executive order protect its citizens from aliens who intend to commit terrorist attack
"Protecting the United States from Foreign Terrorists and Other National Security And Public Safety Threats," will make campuses and communities safer by ensuring deportation of non-citizens and non-nationals, including students, who support foreign terrorist organizations! This executive order directly cites 8 USC 1182(2)(a)(2)-(3), (the same federal statute highlighted below), regarding the inadmissibility and deportability of non-citizens and non-nationals who espouse support for foreign terrorist activities. In compliance with today's executive order, as soon as possible, and no later than 30 days from today, administration officials MUST adjust ALL existing policies and procedures relating to all categories of inadmissibility (and in turn, deportability under 8 USC 1227), including foreigners who express support for foreign terrorist activities or whose presence in the country, as determined by the Secretary of State, would have adverse foreign policy consequences. They will also evaluate ALL visa programs, necessarily including the student visa program, to ensure that they are not used by foreign nationals who espouse support for terrorism. Without a doubt, the adjustments of policies required under this executive order will include the deportation of non-citizens and non-nationals who express support for foreign terrorist organizations and terrorist activities, including students. 2025-01-22 https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-the-united-states-from-foreign-terrorists-and-othernational-security-and-public-safety-threats/
