You need to read some recent history.

The IRA have been on ceasefire since July 1997, the troubles up north haven't
really spilled over to mainland Britain - Certainly not in terms of deaths of
random civilians in a few years. You're more in danger of being hit by a bus
or udner threat from bin Laden and friends.
