I fully understand the decision to cancel the Airshow over Health & Safety concerns for the general public due to bad weather.
However, what I fail to understand is why the Airshow could continue given the fact that the national terror threat level was raised to critical (its highest level, indicating an attack is expected imminently). I for one am not so sure that we should afford such an 'easy' opportunity for a bunch suicidal nutters to potentially cause untold damage and mayhem on a MoD site with thousands of members of the public in attendance.
If a disastrous incident had occurred, perhaps one could argue a strong case of MoD negligence during a period of heightened security?
