Port el Kantaoui, Tunisa: Britain's Home Secretary Theresa May has vowed that "the terrorists will not win" after paying tribute in Tunisia to the 38 people, mainly Britons, killed by a Jihadist gunman.

"We will be united in working together to defeat them but united also in working to defend our values," May said at a joint press conference with her German, French and Tunisian counterparts after visiting the scene of the killings at a Tunisian beach resort.

"We have had a meeting this morning with my interior ministry colleagues, which has shown the determination that we all have to fight against this perverted ideology that is causing this death and destruction," May said, branding the killings "a despicable act of cruelty".

"We are resolved... to defeat those who would do us harm, to defeat those who would undermine our freedom and democracy and to ensure that the terrorists do not win," she added.

A spokeswoman for Cameron said today that 18 British nationals were confirmed to have died in Friday's massacre but said that the number is expected to rise to "around 30".
