It would also be fair to say that our excellent and cohesive anti terror organisations have saved us all from much evil over the past years. I heard last week that our success is due to the fact that MI5, MI6, GCHQ, the Government and Police work together; this has been policy since 7/7. Evidently in France (and PLEASE do not take this as a criticism - it isn't) the agencies are not quite so connected, although the opinion is that they will now have to be, as we have had to become. The chilling thought that I am sure we all have is that our protectors have to be lucky/informed constantly - a terrorist has to be lucky only once.
