France has issued a maximum level of alert as police hunt a gunman who killed two people and wounded fourteen after he opened fire at a Christmas market in Strasbourg.

In response UK security services have increased their presence at domestic Xmas markets, fearing a copycat attack.

Officers armed with assault rifles have already been seen mixing with revellers at Christmas markets.

Festive events across the UK in cities such as London, Birmingham and Leeds have also been protected by barriers to prevent ramming attacks such as the ones that caused devatstation in the capital at Westminster Bridge and London Bridge.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
