Current Affairs London Bridge "Incident"

[Bruce Wayne]

Pretty sure if someone drove a van fast enough at that it would break through easily no?

More an effort to show they've done something than an actual deterrent. In my eyes anyway.

Well the barriers you can see on the road are a pain in the proverbial for cyclists as it squeezes you even more in with the buses overtaking you, so I'd personally rather they put their faux safety measures somewhere useful rather than trying to turn the city into a militarized zone.

I think most of that kind of stuff is just to make people feel safer, very little you can do if someone is determined

[QUOTE="mixed_up, post: 5510014, member: 41771"]I have never seen policemen with guns. Nevermind ones who turn up with guns in a normal police car like that, perfect timing for such an incident, within minutes and also being filmed. When I call the police it takes a lot longer! I may be labelled a conspiracy theorist but the world is ruled by psychopaths who regularly stage stupid events. I am fully aware of a massive part of the world being fake and being telepathic and leading humans into stupidity/evil and it really gets to me sometimes. Seems like we're in a horror movie that we can't escape.

think about it - when they crossed the road to 'stab' that guy, wouldn't they have heard the sirens or seen the car coming? it came like 4 seconds later ffs.

that video and the people in it - all likely working together - so effin bloody fake.

Really?

Isn't that cctv footage? Are you telling me they looked down the road to see if they could find cctv and then hatched an elaborate plan? Haha!!

Do you watch the episode about cops in britain on BBC, 5, ITV etc... the gun cars generally are normal squad cars with one exception they have a locker in the booth with guns in it. Just watch police interceptors or one of the shows like that.

Also that doesn't look like a fake news report. Clearly they asked the cops could they move those people from one side of the barrier to the other so they could get them in the shot.

A lorry would certainly get through it

The concrete slabs? I really doubt it.

...reports of an explosion at Parsons Green underground station in London. No further news as yet.

 

[Del-boy]

Pictures on twitter showing what looks like a bucket in a bag possibly filled with chemicals?

Seems as though most of the injuries have been from people scrabbling to get off the train and out of the station, which is understandable given how busy most trains at this time of day are.

This is why we need to ban Vaping.

..yep, you'd think they'd close the whole system down if it was a terrorist attack. No sign of them doing this.

That's not to say it wasn't, just that the device itself didn't appear to do much damage (thankfully).

Another being defused allegedly

Ingredients from Lidl by the looks of it.

Device didn't detonate properly according to the news.

Probably saved numerous lives being lost.

The time has come to string those responsible for these despicable acts up.

 

[bullybeef]

POTUS tweet seems to suggest that today's attackers were already known to the authorities.

This means the Police already know who is responsible and seemingly allowed them to go about their terrorist business.

Get them all off our streets today.
It's not rocket science.
