Manchester will become the second Police force in the country, after London, to get a dedicated anti-terrorist unit.
The team, to be led by Det Supt Peter Minshall, will head terror inquiries and develop contingency plans.
A spokeswoman for the force stressed however that there was no intelligence to suggest the area was a “specific terrorist target”.
Riiiiiight. I feel so safe now.
