Southport killer Axel Rudakubana admitted carrying a knife on 10 separate occasions but was still able to buy a blade on Amazon, the home secretary has said.

Yvette Cooper said several agencies failed to identify the danger posed by the teenager as he developed an obsession with extreme violence in the years before the attack.

On Monday, Rudakubana pleaded guilty to killing Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, last July. He will be sentenced on Thursday.
