Police are “confirming the arrest was not terror related,” but they have done that many times before, even when the incident was obviously terror-related, and so they don’t exactly inspire trust at this point. It also must be borne in mind that the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
“Knifeman ‘acting suspiciously’ arrested by Metropolitan Police near Westminster Cathedral,” by Charlie Bayliss, Express, September 1, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
METROPOLITAN Police have arrested a man carrying a large knife near Westminster Cathedral.
Officers on the Metropolitan Police’s Operation stopped the suspect after they saw him “acting suspiciously”.
The man is still in custody after being arrested on Francis Street.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “At approximately 11:45hrs on Thursday, 31 August, officers on routine patrol in the Victoria Street area of Westminster attempted to speak with a man who was seen acting suspiciously in an area known for anti-social behaviour.
“The man was found in possession of a large knife. He was arrested and taken to a central London police station where he remains in custody.”
“Enquiries continue.”
A picture of the blade, which appears to be several inches long, was tweeted out by Westminster MPS on Thursday afternoon.
Despite police confirming the arrest was not terror related, Westminster saw the horrendous jihadi-inspired attack by Khalid Masood which killed five people and injured 50 others….

What does ‘acting suspiciously’ mean. Packing that ‘pig sticker’ concealed would be enough to make some people ‘act suspiciously’ all by itself. Especially in the anti-self defense nation of the UK.
I’m surprised he hasn’t complained they violated his ‘human rights’ because packing that blade is a tribal dress custom where he comes from.

Hey, UK! You let a savage hump one of your female police officers. You did nothing about it. Does anyone expect you to do anything about this?
Robeaver says
911 ring any bells? And what was done to Saudi Arabia.???

UK: Knifeman “acting suspiciously” arrested near Westminster Cathedral
………………….
This happened on the same day that another Muslim was “acting suspiciously” and arrested near the Eiffel Tower. This is the “new normal” now.
God, I hate Islam.

And they’re all lone wolves who just happen to be doing the same sort of thing at about the same sort of time at the same sort of places around Europe. And sometimes they also just happen to have all the right equipment/weapons. Yet no doubt suffering from from ‘mental issues’, of course. And naturally there’s no possible connection between them. And there are fairies at the bottom.of my garden.

Yes, Jayell–it is ridiculous.

Police need anti-jihad NECK PROTECTERS made out of slash-resistant material because of the KORAN VERSE … ‘Strike their necks’. Koran 8:12

That’s why the Marines are called “Leathernecks.”
When they first fought Muslims way back when the Muslimes almost always went for the neck, so the Marines wore thick leather collars as protection.
I’d even bet they made it out of pig skin.
And these days, why not use that?
Pigskin actually is quite good leather for boots, jackets and even gloves.
Why not give the cops nice leather uniform jackets, the boots and gloves, and even leather blackjacks and truncheons?
Anne Smith says
Pigskin makes wonderful saddles and is very hard wearing. It was always the leather of choice for high class saddlery.
Leather jackets would look very smart and offer a fair degree of protection, as do leather boots and gloves. The Nazis wore them and looked rather efficient.

Coward Government and it’s refusal to identify the sickness that is evidently Islam. When I next go to my Capital city, London ,I will carry a defensive weapon, A sword-stick is probably the best , it will out class the attacker’s knife, axe or machete by a good foot of cold steel…….suggest you all do the same ? or are you content to sacrifice your family members on the bloody altar of Islamic integration and domination….??

Isn’t self defense illegal in Londonistan? Especially against poor victimized Muslim Jihads?
