The international master criminal was foiled by the weather. Damn you Bond!

Mind you he had another fatal flaw in his "plan" to wreak havoc on the west...

Long a person of concern to police and MI5, Ludlow became the subject of intense surveillance early last year when he began preparations for a mass casualty terror attack. He made plans for a truck attack in central London - but had not learned to drive because he was "scared of crashing".


FFS.

I agree Wander, that it sounds absurd, however, this person was too stupid to give it up. As time went on, who is to say that he wouldn't have found some way to fulfill, or at least partially fulfill, his ambitions. I feel that in this case the intention would have eventually been put together with the opportunity, and the ability, to produce a very poor outcome to some innocent bystander. 
I find it odd that you seem to take umbridge with all the professionals, who know this individual extremely well. 
Would you be different if he was a Brexit supporter   (sorry, just pulling your leg)

I don't have any problem with the decision Glos but to me it looks like all this - and his previous neo- Nazi "fad" are symptoms of a young man who is desperate for the world to take him seriously in the absence of social and other interpersonal skills and could all have been avoided if social services and the mental health experts had taken him in years ago. However those services have been decimated by years of cutbacks and cost-cutting so like the police, the remaining services are forced to operate reactively rather than preventively. 
It's like knife crime. The current debate is around increasing police numbers and increasing divisive issues like stop and search, when the underlying problems could be addressed by increasing the police numbers to deal with low level crimes in the communities affected e.g. burglary, threatening behaviour and vandalism - because if they investigated and prosecuted those properly it would restore the trust of the community and nip the problem in the bud. And community relations are a key part of successful policing if not the most important part. It's a partnership against crime.

Possibly because he's also a thick twat with personality and potentially personal hygiene issues, although it's probably not his fault.

Wouldn't be surprised if Mr pig wears them though, when he's slopping out his bedpans
