00:00There's been a slow growth of risk over the last year or so.
00:04Our caseloads are rising.
00:06Islamist terrorist case is about three-quarter.
00:08The workload is growing.
00:09The extreme right-wing caseload is growing as well.
00:12So there's a whole background to this.
00:15And obviously there's complexities in the world
00:17which are landing on the streets of the UK as well.
00:19So you add all of that together,
00:20the body that looks at these, the independent body,
00:22has made the judgement that it's tipped into severe.

00:27I wouldn't expect the public or want the public
00:29to be alarmed as a result of that.
00:32But everyone being alert is helpful.
