Shabana Mahmood MP(@ShabanaMahmood):My thanks to @terrorismpolice for their swift work in apprehending a boy who allegedly planned to target two mosques in south London. It is deeply unsettling to see someone so young charged with offences of this nature. I know how concerning this will be to the Muslim community just days after a foiled attack at an Islamic festival in Suffolk. The police have confirmed there is no wider threat and they are not seeking other suspects in connection with this investigation. They have stepped up patrols in the affected areas, and they have my full support. Everyone in this country should be able to worship free from fear, intimidation or hatred.
