LONDON (Reuters) - British security forces may have thwarted two further attacks since suicide bombers hit London's transport system in July and killed 52 people, British Prime Minister Tony Blair said.

Blair, who has been forced to shelve counter-terrorism plans to avoid losing his first major vote in parliament, accused critics of his tough proposals of "woeful complacency."

He insists that police need powers to hold terrorism suspects for up to 90 days compared to the current limit of 14.

But on Wednesday rebels in Blair's ruling Labour party cut his parliamentary majority to just one — its lowest ever — over his counter-terrorism measures.

> British security forces may have thwarted two further attacks ... Blair said."

Yeah, maybe there were two, maybe a hundred, maybe none at all. Whatever!

When bush makes this shit up, he doesn't bother with the wiggle wording and just comes out with a fake number of his own. In Britain, it apparently is different in that they use modifiers when they make shit up.

Hey! You may have won one million dollars!
