Right now you are asking cops armed with a hollow metal tube, some hot sauce in a can and a stab vest to keep tabs on armed nutters while the nearest ARV gets tooled up and heads to the area.
Any jihadi wandering over is given free reign to wander about, reload, update his Twitter and generally cause mayhem till then.
Given we can train cops in NI up to basic firearms standards to use handguns, carbines and tasers in two weeks and expect them to deal with an enemy using jihadi style weapons I don't think the current rUK system is safe or sustainable.

Then what would the Daily Record complain about?
