Local Cuts Risk ‘Disaster’ For National Security, Warns Terror Police Chief<\/b>
\nCuts to local policing risk a \u201cdisaster\u201d for maintaining national security, one of the country\u2019s leading counter-terrorism officers has reportedly warned.<\/p>\n

Neil Basu, the senior national coordinator for counter-terrorism policing, said teams tackling Islamist and neo-Nazi extremists become \u201cdivorced from the frontline\u201d when bobbies are taken off the beat.<\/p>\n

Two decades of work in neighbourhood policing, a vital source of intelligence on terrorist plots, is \u201cin danger of disappearing\u201d, he told The Guardian.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, that is a national security issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Basu\u2019s comments come after Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick\u2019s warning that the UK\u2019s largest police force is under \u201cunprecedented\u201d pressure.<\/p>\n

The Met is tackling an increase in crime with far fewer officers while continuing to find ways of making millions of pounds of savings, the commissioner said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has called on Chancellor Philip Hammond to end a \u201cpolice funding crisis\u201d in his upcoming Budget.<\/p>\n

The UK has experienced five terror attacks in 2017 when the threat \u201cwent absolutely stratospheric\u201d, Basu said.<\/p>\n

At least one plot was reportedly foiled hours before an attack was put into action after police received a community tip-off.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we don\u2019t have those people we will become so divorced from the frontline, and the frontline of communities, that will be a disaster for policing in this country,\u201d Basu said.<\/p>\n

Asked by The Guardian if it would threaten national security, he said: \u201cYes, because where\u2019s the intelligence coming from?\u201d
