‘Security services foil 9/11 attack in UK’
6.19AM, Tue Nov 23 2004
ITV News understands that the security services have thwarted four or five September 11-style attacks on targets including Canary Wharf and Heathrow Airport.
One plot is said to have involved pilots being trained to fly into target buildings, including London’s famous financial centre and the world’s busiest airport.
It is one of a number of attacks planned by al-Qaeda since 9/11 that have come to nothing after the authorities intervened.
The disclosure comes as the Government prepares to unveil a series of tough law-and-order Bills in this morning’s Queen’s Speech, setting out the legislative programme for what is expected to be the final session of the current Parliament.
