BRITAIN’S first 24-style Counter Terrorist Unit is to open today.

Manchester CTU will guard against threats — just like the unit agent Jack Bauer works for on Sky’s hit TV show.

MI5 have said there were 1,600 extremists operating in the UK.

Det Chief Supt Tony Porter, 44, head of Greater Manchester Police CTU, said: “This is a significant development that will enhance our capability to protect the public.” CTUs are also being set up with London’s Met Police, West Midlands Police and West Yorks Police.
