Britain must reassess its ability to respond to terrorists attacks in the wake of the massacre in Mumbai, the Home Secretary said.

Jacqui Smith said security forces in the UK should review "what lessons need to be learnt" after multiple strikes in the Indian city left 174 dead.

Her comments follow suggestions from a former SAS head and the chair of the Commons counter-terrorism committee that Britain would be ill-prepared to cope with a similar assault.
