'This is not a pub quiz' - Karen Bradley refuses to answer policing question

Have police cuts come at the cost of the nation's safety?

In the aftermath of this weekend's terror attacks in London, which killed seven and injured 48, we were joined by Culture Secretary Karen Bradley - who was reluctant to give an answer when asked whether there's been a reduction of police officers on Britain's streets.

Bradley also refused to reply when asked if she knew how many mosques are in Britain, telling Piers Morgan: "This is not a pub quiz".

When questioned again about police cuts she said: “What I'm interested in is making sure that we have the right resources, the right powers, and the right training and capabilities.”

"I am assured by the police that they have that to deal with the counter-terrorism threat, but we need to look, learn lessons and make sure that we act where appropriate and we need a leader who is prepared to take those decisions, and that is Theresa May."
