To be fair we're doing about as much to deal with our terrorist problem as America are doing to deal with their gun one Tbf what can we really do? I mean ofc the government should be stricter as a lot of these people were known by the government but I mean anyone can just create a bomb or get in a van and kill people. You'll never know that's about to happen. Instead of seeing them as JUST evil people, maybe we should look at them as people first and think of the psychology behind it. Maybe, something could be done to lessen radicalisation. Hopefully.

Yeah I agree there's not a lot you can do if someone with no history of or links to terrorism decides to drive a car into pedestrians in London, but I've no doubt our government aren't doing everything they should be to weed out people we're aware of. As far am I'm concerned anyone on a terrorist watch list should not be walking the streets, and checks on immigrants and refugees (particularly those coming from countries with links to terrorist groups) need 10x the vetting they're currently getting. Nobody comes in until we're fully confident they're not a risk. But unfortunately if anyone in government dared express that view they'd be called racist, a la UKIP whenever they make a logical comment on immigration.
