London: British Prime Minister Theresa May on Sunday announced that the June 8 General Election will go ahead as planned despite another terrorist attack in London as she blamed the "evil ideology of Islamist extremism" for the three terror attacks in the country.
Speaking outside Downing Street after she chaired the emergency COBRA meeting with senior security chiefs, May said said, "Violence can never be allowed to disrupt the democratic process."
At least seven persons were killed during attacks in two closely connected areas of London on Saturday night.
Three suspected attackers were shot dead by the police.
The incidents took place on London Bridge and in nearby Borough Market.
It is the third terror attack to strike the country this year, after a man drove a car into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge in March and a bomb attack on an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester two weeks ago.
