'Terrorism has changed': Southport knife attack a sign the country faces a new threat, PM says

  • The Prime Minister stated that the Southport knife attack highlights a new threat of terrorism in the UK after Axel Rudakubana pleaded guilty to murdering three young girls in Southport last summer.
  • Rudakubana had been referred to the Prevent programme three times before the attack, but authorities decided he did not require intervention.
  • Experts warn that the current Prevent programme is ineffective against self-initiated radicalisation, which is increasingly common among young individuals.
  • Sir Keir Starmer announced a wide-ranging inquiry to address the failures of public institutions in handling known threats like Rudakubana.
