Okay, not much here for information but the terminology speaks volumes. Look at what was said today by Britain's counter-terrorism minister Lord West, from the article at Yahoo:
I' m going to assume that by Lord West using the term "great" , that this has to rank up on the scale of the London bus bombings or the plot to take down airliners crossing the Atlantic. Obviously, he doesn't say what the plot is or if they even know but for him to even say this means it is serious and I would guess that British intelligence must be all over it.
There have been numerous ominous signs of some major terror attacks that could happen this month - many reports are out there that the "chatter" is at a very pitched level. My contention is that indeed something is in the works and my guess is that there is going to be a day of some coordinated attacks across several countries. I, personally, think the target is Europe and if I were to guess, I would say that the countries of France, England and Spain will be targeted.
I think al Qaeda is hungry for some pomp and circumstance and a coordinated attack across a large region would create the buzz they are seeking. Stay tuned.
During a debate on new security laws he said: "There is another great (terrorist) plot building up again and we are monitoring this."
Lord West, the former head of the Royal Navy, revealed the existence of the plot as the House of Lords continued debating the Counter Terrorism Bill.
He gave no more details of the threat.

New terror plot investigated
During a debate on new security laws he said: "There is another great (terrorist) plot building up again and we are monitoring this."
Lord West, the former head of the Royal Navy, revealed the existence of the plot as the House of Lords continued debating the Counter Terrorism Bill.
He gave no more details of the threat.
His warning came less than 24 hours after peers forced the Government to abandon plans to extend maximum pre-charge detention for terror suspects to 42 days.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith dropped the measure from the Bill after it was defeated in the upper house by 191 votes.
But she warned critics that they were exposing the country to a greater risk.
