So, as usual, the OP gets his facts wrong

Border Force resource budget will be £558.1m for 2016/17 – a cut of 0.4% on last year – but the agency gets a capital spending boost
Passport check
Day-to-day funding for the Border Force will be cut by 0.4% in the coming year, Theresa May has announced.
The agency’s resource budget will be £558.1m for 2016/17, a reduction of 0.4% on last year.
The home secretary said spending was protected “to all intents and purposes” because capital spending on Border Force projects is set to rise by more than 40% to £68m.
Quelle surprise.

Did the OP clearly state what I quoted or did he not?
No point in you disingenuously cherrypicking subsets of the main thrust of his points now, is there?
Makes you look even more silly than normal

Originally posted by northernladyuk View PostSo... did the OP make the point that the cuts in police numbers had adversely affected security
What about this one:
This is the reality of Theresa May's record on terror as Home Secretary | The Independent
"According to latest Home Office figures, the number of police in England and Wales fell by 18,991, or 13 per cent, between September 2010 and September 2016, when it stood at 122,859.
Within that, the number of authorised firearms officers dropped from 6,976 in March 2010 to 5,639 in March 2016"
My point is that she's responsible for cuts in security

Originally posted by northernladyuk View PostSo you're saying that this was before the Italian-Moroccan terrorist, who was on the EU watchlist, entered the UK, so it doesn't count?

The fact that this incident was resolved in 8 minutes points strongly to the fact that our front-line response capability has not been undermined.

Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostThe OP made the point that the cuts in Police numbers had adversely affected security.
My point was that, the response time being so impressive suggested that the cuts in Police numbers had not really had any material impact on countering these major incidents.
Following the plot is not really one of your strong suits is it?

Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostWell as long as we remain in your beloved EU, the ability of the Border Controllers is pretty limited anyway.
But come the Revolution.............
The UK (and Ireland - to cover off the Common Travel Area) has all the powers it needs to stop EU citizens from entering the country if they are on the watchlist.

...Although if you are in the US, you are twice as likely to be killed by a toddler who has a gun than a terrorist.
