ARSON APPEAL at Nottingham Train Station…”


Police investigations are still ongoing a week after a suspected arson attack caused millions of pounds worth of damage to Nottingham train station.  British Transport Police were present at the station this morning appealing to commuters for any information that they may have.  In what looked like a new advancement in the investigation, officers were seen to cordon off an area around Hopkinson vintage, antiques and art centre on Station Street at 11:30 am.  British Transport Police at the scene confirmed that the development was “part of the ongoing investigation into the fire at Nottingham train station”, but could not provide any further details at the time.  Following the advancement, the British Transport Police were contacted and a media spokesperson said: “The British Transport Police are at Nottingham train station to appeal for any information on the fire last week.
Police officers were also spotted at the train station during the late hours of Thursday 18 January, appealing to anyone who may have been present at the station around the same time last week, in the hours before the incident.  These appeals are part of an arson investigation, as the British Transport Police attempt to ask those who regularly commute at similar hours each week for more information.  In a press release issued from the British Transport Police on Thursday, it was said that the authorities had a particular interest in “any footage that may have been captured on mobile phones or dash cams.”

Did you see or hear anything that may be valuable to our investigation?
Please contact British Transport Police.  Call: 0800 40 50 40. Text: 61016

"UK Police given extra £50m to fund fight against Terrorism”

Extra cash will increase intelligence and surveillance capabilities and pay for armed officers to patrol city centres.

Home Secretary Amber Rudd said: “This represents our commitment to backing the talented and brave counter-terrorism forces with the resources they need to keep people safe.





Police forces are to receive a £50m funding boost to help the fight against terrorism.  The extra cash will increase intelligence and surveillance capabilities and pay for armed officers to patrol city centres.  The home secretary, Amber Rudd, secured the rise in next year’s police counter-terrorism budget to at least £757m after convincing the chancellor, Philip Hammond, more money was needed to protect the public.

“Since 2015 alone we have increased counter-terrorism spending by 30% and pledged more than £500m in increased funding for the counter-terrorism budget, to protect the UK from the ongoing threat posed by terrorism.  This [latest funding] will allow counter-terrorism policing to meet head on the threat we face, working closely with our communities and continuing to disrupt those who would want to harm us.  We are also reviewing our counter-terrorism strategy to make sure we meet the unprecedented challenge.”
