Speaking after today’s pipe bomb attack on PSNI officers, Secretary of State, Rt Hon Theresa Villiers MP said

This was a deplorable attack on police officers which I totally condemn.

This highlights once again the dangers faced by PSNI and the courage they show in protecting the whole community. They should have the full support of everyone in NI.
