A report by the Intelligence and Security Committee into last year's 7 July London bombings claimed that MI5 was aware of about 250 possible suspects in 2001.
By July 2004, the number of "primary investigative targets" the service was aware of had doubled to 500, according to the MPs' report.
A year later the number had leapt again to around 800, the report said.
In the lead-up to the first anniversary of the London attacks, Mr Clarke said Scotland Yard was running more counter-terrorism investigations than ever before.

What a glorious success this "war on terror" is.
