Manchester attack: UK halts sharing bombing intel with US

Manchester, England (CNN) — Britain has suspended intelligence sharing on the Manchester bombing with the US after American officials leaked information to the media, an issue that British Prime Minister Theresa May will raise with US President Donald Trump later Thursday.


US officials released the suspected bomber's name and other details of the investigation into the deadly attack at the Manchester Arena Monday night, irking British investigators scrambling to keep details of the probe confidential.


May said Thursday she would raise leaks with Trump when the pair meet at a NATO summit in Brussels, Belgium.

"I will be making clear to President Trump today that intelligence that is shared between law enforcement agencies must remain secure."

Where his "refugee parents" has been shortened to "refugee" and the tragedy in Manchester is now "America."

Marketing and branding is all these lyin' hustlers know.
