Spy chiefs fear that it is a case of “when, not if” terrorists launch a “dirty bomb” attack against London or another western capital.

Security sources have disclosed that the belief amongst most intelligence agencies is that a chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear (CBRN) attack, using a so-called dirty bomb, is now inevitable.

The warning comes three weeks after 250 police officers stormed the home of two Muslim brothers in Forest Gate, east London, in the mistaken belief that they were attempting to develop a chemical bomb. It follows growing concern among members of Britain’s intelligence and security hierarchy that if a CBRN attack took place in the City of London it would devastate Britain’s economy and severely damage the economies of Europe and America.
