David Cameron has announced the Terror Threat has been raised from substantial to severe. Although there hasn't been any intelligence saying there is an imminent attack. There will be a n increase in police on the streets of the UK. Could Cameron be preparing us if we send troops into Iraq or other Islamic states?

Cameron is preparing something like control orders or something safe. Obviously we should all be vigilant without any increase in a terror threat.

Mark it's no different from when it was at that level some years ago.

You'll get more vigourous security checks if you are travelling. My O/H said he'll no doubt have to remove his belt every time now going through the staff security channel to do his aircraft supervision job. It changes all the time.

I do believe that we should have profiling for security checks, not just what the airlines already do. Anyone who says it's racist to do so should surely realise that it no longer is. Had we not been so lenient things may not have reached this situation.
