Phillips: People could lose jobs for Southport failings

The home office minister has said there is a possibility people could lose their jobs as a result of failures to stop Southport killer, Axel Rudakubana.

Jess Phillips said it was 'very, very clear there were failings in the Prevent model' and said the government's public inquiry will seek to identify and change individual and systematic flaws, including job dismissals and reforms. Rudakubana had been on the police's radar and had been referred to Prevent, the counterterrorism programme, on three occasions before he carried out a deadly knife attack, killing three young girls and injuring numerous other people last summer.
