Metro, on UK Politics, 11 November 2026
We do not republish articles from Metro. Our findings are below, each quoting the words it is about. Read the full article on the outlet's own site.
Read the original article on metro.co.uk (opens in a new tab)Metro reports a wave of emailed bomb threats to hundreds of schools in Scotland, Northern Ireland, Ireland and Italy, and says schools in Scotland and Northern Ireland were evacuated or sent pupils home. It reports that Police Scotland is treating the messages as hoaxes with no credible threat to the public, and it attributes the text of the threat to La Repubblica. Nothing in the article misleads its reader.
“there is no requirement to evacuate schools or keep children away from education based solely on the content of the emails”
Metro quotes the police advice in full, so readers get the official guidance and not only the alarm.
“According to La Repubblica, the message read”
Metro names the source for the threat's wording and does not present the email's claims as its own.
