I don't think anybody would seriously suggest it would prevent them but it would certainly make them less likely. Or shall we just wait for a similar atrocity here and then think about closing the stable door long after the horse has bolted?
Could you explain which specific terrorist attack in europe would have been stopped by the a country adopting more stringent border checks than the UK does at the moment? (Exclude any Irish related terrorism as the border checks between Ireland and Britain are unrelated to the EU - at least they are at the moment)
Or are you saying that a condition of the UK remaining will be we join schengen?

You mean like July 7th 2005? When four men travelled from the foreign country of Leeds to blow themselves up in London? What border checks would have stopped that? Passport check at Luton train station perhaps?
