Theresa May has vowed that "hatred and evil" of the kind seen in the terror attack on a north London mosque that left one man dead and injured eight others will never succeed, as police promised to provide extra patrols during Ramadan.

She made her pledge as more details emerged about the suspect in the Finsbury Park attack in which a van was rammed into worshippers helping an elderly man who had collapsed on the pavement in the early hours.

Markram Ali, who was already receiving first aid, having collapsed just prior to the incident, died at the scene, while eight others were seriously injured.

The attacker has been named locally as father-of-four Darren Osborne, 47, a father of four from Weston-Super-Mare in Somerset.
