Let me be clear. First and foremost my thoughts are with anyone there, and I hope everyone gets home safe.Not sure...
Sky News are showing images if someone who has fallen/jumped from London Bridge.
At least one dead and others have suffered 'catastrophic injuries '
The trouble with 24 hour news is that sometimes it's breaking news sometimes it settles down after an hour or so...
AgreeLet me be clear. First and foremost my thoughts are with anyone there, and I hope everyone gets home safe.
but I'm just so tired of this clickbait "journalism" No one cares about facts, they just care about being first. Throw a sexy headline on it, run it up the flagpole and watch the money roll in.
Same guy from what I've read. He drove into people on the bridge and then headed down on foot.Two separate incidents.
Guy appears to have driven into someone (or up to 12 people) on Westminster Bridge.
Also someone has tried to attack someone in Parliament and has been shot dead by police.
London eye on shutdown and people trapped in pods.
Does seem real...
yeah i was about to take a bubble bath when i got a pop up for this. now im staring at the tv upset... :-(
we wouldn't be lucky enough for @Robbie Hart to be thereDo we have all our Brits accounted for?
I've read reports of two people in the car. Dropped one off then he headed to the parliment with the knife.Same guy from what I've read. He drove into people on the bridge and then headed down on foot.
thats wild, considering all the AR-15s we see as soon as you step into NYC lolI've read reports of two people in the car. Dropped one off then he headed to the parliment with the knife.
One is shot dead by police after stabbing an officer one is being held.
You know shit gets serious when the british police get the guns out. Outside of london and major airports seeing an armed police officer is like finding rocking horse shit.
Remember, inside London, basically inside the M25 motorway the security risk is infinitely bigger and therefore the amount of armed police goes up.thats wild, considering all the AR-15s we see as soon as you step into NYC lol
Fairly common in London these days.I've read reports of two people in the car. Dropped one off then he headed to the parliment with the knife.

Yerp. In London I would say it is the norm. Transport police too which is always a shock to a brit.Fairly common in London these days.
The BBC is your best bet. They have no vested interest in clicks, SKY NEWS is another beast, they're run by Rupert Murdoch, google that terrible human being sometime...Let me be clear. First and foremost my thoughts are with anyone there, and I hope everyone gets home safe.

EDIT: i read ur subsequent comments and get it now. the officers in LN have gunsRemember, inside London, basically inside the M25 motorway the security risk is infinitely bigger and therefore the amount of armed police goes up.
London is our NYC, our Washington, remember we small....
Outside, very very minimal. Never really a necessity due to our almost complete lack of firearms. Tazers are enough.
You don't think they would glamorize being publicly executed by the 'kuffar'?I would like it if officers in every country were paid double, trained to apprehend above all else, and after trial and conviction, these "terrorists" had their lives ceased memorably in public.
I see no end in sight between foreign "policy" and the perceived glamorization of martyrdom.
I used the word "memorably" as a substitution for my much harder visualization, which no, would not be glamorous.You don't think they would glamorize being publicly executed by the 'kuffar'?
