A landmark RAF celebration has been cancelled because of Olympic security demands.

A ceremony was due to take place on Wednesday to celebrate the 90th anniversary of 2 Squadron based at RAF Honington.

The event has now been called off as it's emerged troops from our region along with extra police are being parachuted in to plug the security gaps at the games.

It comes on the day the boss of the security firm G4S admitted he was deeply disappointed he'd failed to deliver on the contract.
