“With permission, Mr Speaker, I will make a Statement on the series of national security-related arrests that took place on Saturday 3 May. Protecting our national security is the first duty of government, and it is a testament to our world-leading law enforcement and intelligence services that, through their tireless commitment, so many plots against the UK have been thwarted. I pay tribute to them again today for the work that they have done not just this weekend, but in recent weeks and months, on these important operations.
