School massacres and eight 'late-stage' terrorist attacks were foiled by counter-terror cops last year, the force has said, with children as young as 13 under investigation | Fraser_Knight

Some of the plots involved "goal-line saves" by counter-terror cops, where the offender had identified their target and acquired weapons to carry out the attack.

Asked whether he thought social media is being used to indoctrinate young people, Mr Jukes told LBC: "It’s giving, sadly, young people, a twisted inspiration. Counter-terror cops also said state threats against the UK have quadrupled in the last two years, with 20 per cent of case work focusing on hostile states.

Russia and China are also considered major threats, with Mr Jukes noting that specific communities are frequently targeted by would-be attackers.
