A British terrorist cell planned to detonate suicide bombs on seven


transatlantic flights over North America, causing catastrophic loss of
life, a court was told yesterday.

Gordon Brown to overrule his own advisers on cannabis grade

The flights chosen by the alleged terrorists – based in Walthamstow,


East London – were scheduled to leave Heathrow Terminal 3 one
afternoon carrying almost 2,000 passengers and crew.

Peter Wright, QC, opening the prosecution case against eight men
accused of the plot, said that the attacks would have had “a truly
global impact”.

The seven aircraft were destined for six American and Canadian
cities: New York, Washington DC, Chicago, San Francisco, Toronto
and Montreal.

Mr Brown ordered the review after growing public unease about


stronger "skunk" varieties of the drug and a series of studies which
linked its use to mental health problems.

However, the council is believed to have found new research


showing no evidence that rising cannabis use in the 1970s, 80s and
early 90s led to increases in the incidence of schizophrenia.

The decision will come as a potential embarrassment to Mr Brown,


who used his monthly press briefing earlier this week to say he
regarded cannabis use as not just illegal but also unacceptable.
