Britain will introduce tougher jail sentences for convicted terrorists and will end early release as part of a series of measures to strengthen its response to terrorism, the government said on Tuesday.
Prime Minister
Boris Johnson pledged to make changes after an attack near
London Bridge in November in which Usman Khan, a convicted terrorist who had been released early from prison, killed two people.
Khan had been sentenced to a minimum of eight years in
prison in 2012 with a requirement that the parole board assess his danger to the public before release.
