Jeremy Corbyn has said he is “not happy” with letting Britain’s security services adopt a “shoot-to-kill policy” if terrorists were loose in the UK.

The Labour leader said he thought the policy could be “quite dangerous” and “counterproductive,” warning that it could lead to “war on the streets.”

The remarks come just days after the French military were deployed in Paris amid fears terrorists who had launched a series of attacks in the French capital were still at large.

Mr. Corbyn is likely to come under pressure to explain how he would want the security services to take out terrorists if they were on the loose in Britain.

The Labour leader also faces a backlash from his own MPs over other comments made during a series of television broadcasts on Parliament’s first day back since the Paris attacks.

Mr. Corbyn said he would not give his MPs a free vote on Syrian air strikes, meaning they will likely be whipped to vote against the measure if it comes before the House of Commons.
