An explosion in a subway station in west London is being treated as terrorist incident, British counter terrorism sources said Friday. (XinhuaHan Yan) LONDON, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- British Prime Minister Theresa May said Friday that the terror threat level is raised to critical Cheap Nike Air Max 98 Australia , which means a further terrorist attack in Britain may be imminent.
May said that her government decided to raise the terror threat level from severe to critical, highest possible level, after an explosion took place on a packed rush-hour carriage at Parsons Green subway station on Friday morning in London.
The British government made the decision on assessment of the current security situation in the United Kingdom by an independent organization, she said.
May described the explosion as a "cowardly attack". She said that members of the British military forces were expected to be seen on streets in London.
This was the fourth time that the assessment has been placed at the highest level in the past 11 years, Sky News reported.
The Islamic State's Amaq News Agency said Friday night that the terrorist group claimed responsibility for the subway explosion in London.
The police said the explosion is a terrorist attack Cheap Nike Air Max Flair Australia , and a massive hunt is under way to identify the man who placed the home-made bomb on the train.
London police urged anyone with information that could help detectives to contact police hotline on 0800 789 321.
The police said that they are undertaking a complicated investigation to identify the man who is responsible for the blast.
The blast left at least 29 people injured, and most of them are being treated in hospitals for burn injuries.
The blast was caused by an improvised explosive device, which failed to properly detonated, police said.
The Friday blast came after three deadly terrorist attacks in London this year -- Westminster Bridge, London Bridge and Finsbury Park Cheap Nike Air Max Plus Australia , and one in Manchester at the end of a concert.
Donald Trump's emergence as the last man standing in the Republican presidential race has prompted his critics inside the party to intensify their search for a candidate they could back as a serious third-party alternative.
Political operatives are courting donors, calling potential candidates and developing legal contingency plans for overcoming onerous ballot qualification laws.
"This is as much as anything a battle for the future of American party politics," said Republican strategist Joel Searby, who is working with conservative writer Bill Kristol, among others Cheap Nike Air VaporMax Australia , on an effort to identify a third-party candidate to run in the Nov. 8 presidential election.
A separate group, Conservatives Against Trump, which includes blogger Erick Erickson, has been holding calls and meetings to discuss third-party candidates as well as other options to stop the New York billionaire from winning the White House.
The hurdles to a third-party candidacy are immense. No independent candidate has ever won a presidential election, although some have played spoilers. But the efforts by the Republican groups underscore the unusual divisiveness of Trump's candidacy within Republican ranks ahead of a likely general election fight with Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
Trump's opposition to free trade is at odds with the views of many Republicans Cheap Nike VaporMax Australia , especially in the party's business wing. Many of Trump's critics also find his rhetoric offensive, including his call to temporarily bar Muslims from entering the country and his comment describing Mexican immigrants to the United States as rapists and drug dealers.
Some Republicans say they worry that any third-party candidate would only siphon votes away from Trump and help Clinton win the election.
Ralph Nader's independent presidential run has been blamed by some Democrats for the razor-thin defeat of Democratic nominee Al Gore in the 2000 election. Ross Perot's independent candidacy in 1992 was seen by some Republicans as contributing to President George H.W. Bush's loss to Democrat Bill Clinton.
One outcome, though rare, may be that no candidate crosses the necessary threshold of 270 votes in the U.S. Electoral College. In that case, the vote for the next president would pass to the U.S. House of Representatives http://www.cheapairmaxaustralia.net/ , currently controlled by Republicans.
Deborah DeMoss Fonseca, who recruited donors for former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush and is working with Conservatives Against Trump, said her group was trying to find a candidate who would be high-profile enough to compete with Trump and Clinton.
NO EASY TASK
But finding a candidate of that calibre who would be willing to run is no easy feat. Searby's group has reached out to former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and James Mattis, a retired U.S. Marine Corps general, among others Nike Air Max Australia Wholesale , but both declined after discussions.
Republican U.S. Senator Ben Sasse of Nebraska has emerged as a favourite of the Republicans seeking a third-party candidate. Kristol has had warm words for him.
Sasse, a freshman lawmaker and former Bush administration official, is a strong critic of Trump and has called for an alternative candidate to him. But he says that person should be someone other than him.
On Wednesday, the morning after Trump emerged as the presumptive presidential nominee, phones at the office of Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson were ringing off the hook with calls from small-government Republicans who feel they cannot get behind Trump.
But as a Libertarian Nike Air Max Australia Sale , Johnson holds views on some issues, such as the legalization of marijuana, that are antithetical to the views of some Republicans.
