    No threat to NI security - Hugh Orde

    Northern Ireland was put on high security alert by default because it is part of the UK.
    However there is nothing to suggest that those attacking Britain are tagetting Northern Ireland.

    "But is there any specific intelligence about Northern Ireland? The answer is no," Sir Hugh said after talks with NI Secretary Shaun Woodward. "

    "This critical threat is from a group of extremists who have nothing to do with Northern Ireland. "
