Categories of Threat
Since 24 September 2010, the Home Office has reported three different categories of terrorist threat:
- Threat from international terrorism.
- Terrorism threat related to Northern Ireland in Northern Ireland itself.
- Terrorism threat related to Northern Ireland in Great Britain.
The Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre (JTAC) is responsible for setting the threat level from international terrorism and the Security Service (MI5) is responsible for setting both threat levels related to Northern Ireland.

Famous quotes containing the words categories of, categories and/or threat:
“Kitsch ... is one of the major categories of the modern object. Knick-knacks, rustic odds-and-ends, souvenirs, lampshades, and African masks: the kitsch-object is collectively this whole plethora of “trashy,” sham or faked objects, this whole museum of junk which proliferates everywhere.... Kitsch is the equivalent to the “cliché” in discourse.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“All cultural change reduces itself to a difference of categories. All revolutions, whether in the sciences or world history, occur merely because spirit has changed its categories in order to understand and examine what belongs to it, in order to possess and grasp itself in a truer, deeper, more intimate and unified manner.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“An ill-trained doctor is a threat to life, an ill-trained priest a threat to faith.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
