As to the text which I have emboldened, this is not strictly true because - as diligent and hard-working as our Security and Intelligence Services undoubtedly are - there are numerous documented cases of terrorists who have been 'Flagged-Up' STILL being able to commit atrocities.

In all these things one needs perspective. There were 12 cases last year stopped by the security services. Out of the entire population of the UK it's a trivial amount that are thinking of doing something. There are a significantly larger number of people that have a screw loose and are happy to commit bog standard murder and grievous bodily harm. They are a greater threat to our society than terrorists. Road accidents are a greater threat than terrorists.
Of course it's horrible when they do something, but it needs perspective.
