We need to come to an understanding with the king of Sealand and then we can send them all to his oil rig. Be like our very own Guantanamo Bay.

He seems to be talking himself into knots.

"There is an option for British citizens who are strongly suspected by the intelligence services of being involved in terrorism but who we can not put in front of a court because we don't have sufficient evidence to put before a court, and that is internment, which we had in Northern Ireland."

New legislation is needed before the introduction of interment, Col Kemp stressed. "The intelligence services would have to produce evidence, the state would have to endorse it and judges would have to approve the measures," he said


Let's just work harder to get the evidence shall we and then we can ensure they are properly dealt with through the right channels.

He's also suggesting a major part of the problem is foreign terrorists, but haven't all the attacks been undertaken by Brits?

To be fair, he hasn't been involved since 2006 so probably basing it on Al Qaeda's MO rather than the current development of home-grown terrorists.

What sort of evidence can you act on when the current plots can consist of hiring a car or going to B&Q for a kitchen knife?

No. Third jihadi involved in London Bridge attack a Moroccan - he'd been picked up by Italian police before so he was known - why was he allowed into the UK? Second was a Moroccan who came to UK in around 2005 before heading off to Dublin for a few years . First one came here from Pakistan when he was young.

There's also this re: internment. I missed his quote first time as it wasn't taken from the article but sitting outside it.

"It wasn't successful in Northern Ireland. It was counterproductive in Northern Ireland but we can do it in a different way than we did it in Northern Ireland and make sure it is both productive and effective."

No details on how it can or will work better ... I now fully expect to see Kemp part of May's counter-terrorism team in the near future.

I did some reading up on him.

He's a military counter-terrorism expert with most expertise form overseas and last actively involved 11 years ago. Now, I'm sure that he has much relevant input but how to best manage domestic counter-terrorism (and more importantly reducing the overall threat) against the current breed of recruits may not be the best. Also his domestic internment approach failed in Northern Ireland - not to mention the solution there wasn't even internment it turns out.

I say 100% trust the experts, but a narrow expert needs to be balanced with other expert viewpoints or we get crap "solutions". That's the scientific and logical approach anyway.

Internment did not work in Northern Ireland for the following reasons:

Many of the people picked up were old IRA members from the 1940s or their campaign from 1956-62. Most of the young main players were not picked up. This was down to lack of intelligence at the time.

Few loyalist terrorists were interned.

I'm not 100% convinced on using internment with today's situation, however we need new, tough legislation to deal with Islamic extremists in the country. Flying of the black flag should become a criminal offence, there are many extremists organisations which should be banned and membership or association with made a criminal offence, enforce strict border controls, revoke citizenship of anyone going to fight abroad for IS - they simply are never allowed back in the country, deport foreign nationals or people with dual nationality who are on the security services watch list - there's lots which can be done which currently isn't been done. If things continue on the current path, sooner of later there will be serious civil strife in the UK.

Somebody made a very good point last week. I wish I could remember who it was.

His point was that we jail people for viewing kiddie porn even though they haven't carried out any sexual acts on children. We should therefore jail people who visit Jihadi websites even though they haven't carried out a terrorist attack.

It seems a fair point except that one is currently illegal and would therefore involve a evidence of a crime and prosecution in court and one is not yet currently illegal.

It would be a good point if it were factually correct.

We jail relatively few people who view child abuse imagery online. We can't afford to.
