If you were a terrosist, would you REALLY use a bank account to buy a phone, or a top-up card?

This isn't a story and the person who wrote it wasn't even starting to think - on the one hand we're told this is supposed to be a highly trained, motivated, technologically clued-up terror network - and at the same they're supposed to be too dumb to use even basic cut-outs, like good old fashioned cash in Tesco Metro.

If this is police and intelligence services reasoning and not just emotional knee-jerk headlining then we are all in deep, deep trouble.

And they should probably give me a job.
