Police believe the cars used in Friday's attempted attack on London's West End had been driven to the capital from Scotland. At least one of the Mercedes was logged last Wednesday on its journey south on the national Automatic Number Plate Recognition System, a network of hi-tech cameras across the country established to counter terrorism. Meanwhile a nationwide manhunt is gathering pace. On Sunday morning, officers raided several addresses in Scotland, including several homes in Houston, a quiet commuter village six miles northwest of Paisley.

...from Alaska to a remote Norwegian island on a 16-month trip. By the time he reached Norway, in April 1969, he had covered 3,720 miles, camped through temperatures of --50°F and wandered for three months in total darkness. Along the way Herbert, who likened the journey to "conquering a horizontal Everest," oversaw the drilling of more than 250 ice-core samples, which that are now the benchmark against which scientists measure the impact of climate change in the Arctic. He was 72 and had diabetes...
