I said "I hope this isn't going to escalate into ***-for-tat attacks." At no point did I say that there wouldn't be more attacks. I doubt, however, that it will be people from the Finsbury Park Mosque who stage an immediate retaliation. My main point was that I'm hoping there won't be more anti-Muslim attacks as that as well as being as obnoxious as Islamic terrorist attacks would be completely counterproductive, putting even more stress on an undermanned police service.
