Sky journalist "could've killed them all" in church security report

by Aaron James

Martin Brunt's piece came after two terrorists murdered 86-year-old parish priest Fr Jacques Hamel in a church in Rouen in northern France earlier this week, also severely injuring another churchgoer.

As a result, British police called UK churches to review their own security measures and remain "vigilant" and "alert".

They also said they had no specific intelligence indicating an attack against a church was imminent.

In his report, Martin Brunt visits St James' church in Weybridge, Surrey, before remarking that he "could've killed them all" if he was a terrorist because of the lack of security the church had. 

People have made fun of the report on Twitter:

Premier's contacted Sky News for a response.
