A powerful new criminal offense to target the suspects that is found to prepare mass murders will ensure that their conspiracy is seriously taken as terrorism, the Home Secretary says.

Yvette Cooper said that the criminal justice system was to be given new equipment to respond to violence-funded persons in view of the Southport attack last year, which are not inspired by a particular ideology.

Terrorist suspects who take steps towards an attack can be imprisoned for life, even if their plans are not fully made.

Cooper told the BBC that the government will “stop the gap” between such criminals and loans, giving violence-junglers the power to catch them before working to the police.

Axle Rudkubana is serving a life imprisonment for killing three girls when she attacked a teller Swift-themed dance class in Southport almost a year ago.

Eight other girls were seriously injured, as well as two adults tried to stop the killer.

If the police found that he was doing research on a target before the attack, he could not arrest and accused him of a serious crime as he had no ideological motive related to the definition of terrorism.

Talking to BBC Radio 4 Terror situation The series, which charts the response to violent extremism in 20 years since 7/7 bomb blasts, said that the police will get the power to stop such persons who do not have a clear ideology, similarly they can do with terrorist suspects.

“There is a difference in the law around the plan of mass attacks that can be equally serious [as terrorism] In their implications for communities, their influence, destruction that they can cause and severity of crime, “he said.

“We will tighten the law so that it is taken seriously as terrorism.”

Cooper said that the plan – which was briefly declared in March, but was not yet taken out – was similar to the extraordinary serious crime of preparing the acts of terrorism for the new law.

The law, brought after the 2005 London bombings, is an important counter-entrimism tool that has put dozens of suspects in jail.

This allows the police to arrest a terrorist suspect for the steps taken for the preparation of an attack – such as researching a target.

But it determines that there should also be evidence that the preparation is associated with an ideological reason, such as the support of the banned group under terrorism laws.

The employed non-persistent crime will apply to a broader range of scenarios, including the activity of individuals such as Nicolas Prosper,. He was planning to shoot a collective school before catching his family to kill.

Cooper said: “We have seen cases of increasing number of adolescents online radical and all types of extremist contents in our bedroom.

“They are really distorted and looking at the online world.

“We have to ensure that the system can respond by not taking our eye with a long -standing ideological dangers.”
