Anti-terror police chief: UK needs 'stronger controls'

One of the UK's top counter-terror officers says tighter exit controls are needed to stop British citizens travelling to Syria and fighting for Islamic State.

"I think clearly we would like to see stronger controls on exit," says Sir Peter Fahy, the national policing lead for Prevent, the government's anti-extremism programme.

"Of course that will inconvenience every one of us when we're trying to get through the airports, to get out quickly."
