Mike Pannett former Met murder detective and best selling author has told LBC that he believes when people are scared & vulnerable the last thing this government should be doing is cutting front line police officers.
The announcement came as security services within the United Kingdom confirmed a Paris style attack could happen within the United Kingdom.
