Because of "terrorists."
"UK police arrest 7 in antiterror raids" Associated Press / September 20, 2011
LONDON - Although the plot was in its early stages and targets weren’t immediately known, British security officials said the threat appeared significant and involved Islamic extremists....
So British news and events are scripted just like here in AmeriKa, huh?
Britain lowered its assessment of a terrorist attack from “severe’’ to “substantial’’ in July. The current threat level means risk of an attack is a “strong possibility.’’
Just keep walking on those eggshells, British citizen.
******************
Europe has been the target of numerous terror plots by Islamist militants. The deadliest was the 2004 Madrid train bombings, which killed 191 people and wounding about 1,800.

I take it that when the mouthpiece AmeriKan media uses the term Islamic militants it means some intelligence agency operation.
