The IRA's action won't lift the cloud of the terror threat from Britain, unfortunately. Sir Ian Blair has told Metropolitan police authority that there may be more cells of would-be suicide bombers. Also today a further nine people have been arrested in dawn raids at two addresses in south London.

The General Medical Council has won its appeal against a court ruling which forced doctors to continue feeding a terminally-ill patient when his illness reaches the final stages.
