Liverpool Women's Hospital blast: One Month On

One month ago, the solemnity of Remembrance Sunday in Liverpool was shattered when a taxi exploded outside the entrance of the city's Women's Hospital.

The driver managed to escape but the man responsible for the device, failed asylum seeker Amad el-Swaelmeen, died in the blast.

Counter terrorism officers believe only the detonator exploded and not a bomb he had with him which included ball-bearings, designed to cause shrapnel.

Liverpool Women's chief executive Kathryn Thomson recalls that Sunday morning.
