POLICE chief Mike Todd has vowed to protect his officers from attack as the war on terror steps up intoa higher gear.
The Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police said any measures which would improve the safety of policemen and women while they are on duty would be introduced straight away.
He said: "If there is anything we need to do differently tomorrow, we will make the changes tomorrow."
Mr Todd spoke out ahead of today's funeral of Detective Constable Stephen Oake. Mr Oake was stabbed to death during an anti-terrorism raid in the Crumpsall area of Manchester.
