mate the IRA died down years ago, the entire west has a major major problem with Islam which could define the entire 21st century, its nothing to do with the IRA, ridiculous comparison.

You'll be crying about Saudi, whilst the politicians getting/trying to get elected on a wave of islamophobia such as Trump, Conservatives ect all do deals with the Saudi's?! Oil/weapons/destabilising other countries
Joe bloggs/Ahmed al-bloggs mean absolutely nothing to any of them. That's a far bigger threat than a religion.

Follow @gmpolice on twitter for updates. I hope everyone is safe.

This is as bad as it can be.

It's a sickener. Targeting children is heart wrenching.

Why are you discussing it. Just let the scrote rant.

It really is a horrible world.I just have no words for this really.Manchester is just up the road from Liverpool.So this one is real close to home.I just hope if there is an after life that it's a better place than this hell hole.As Martin Luther King said we learned to fly the air like birds and we learned to swin the sea like fish.But we have never learned the simple art of living together as brothers.

Mum and sis were at a gig there a few nights ago.

Far too close to home.

Friend of mine went over to the Ritz tonight for a gig which I think is close by, awful

Don Lemon on CNN just did an interview with a parent who can't get in contact with her daughter who attended the gig. Soul destroying to listen to.

Watching Fox News coverage just to see what its like and am quite amazed in a good way... they are purposely playing down terrorism.

That Shepard Smith is actually alright, seems far too reasonable to be on FOX.

I'm a left of centre type of guy, but I have to admit that the Fox News Channel is more moderate and more professional than other media outlets would have us believe.

I lived in the US for a spell in the late nineties/early noughties and I always found the hard news on FNC to be spot on.

Incidentally, Shepard Smith is one of just a handful of openly gay news anchors in America. Good guy.

Do you think the two atrocities are in some way linked?

Wouldn't have a clue tbh, could easily be coincidence

Last Thursday I took my Daughter and her friend to the Ariana Grande in Birmingham. I walked them to the door of the N.E.C.and left them to enjoy the concert and waited in the car park. Last night there was an explosion at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, if I had booked tickets to go there instead, and left my daughter and her friend in that concert, it could be me getting the news that no parent wants.

I can only sit here unable to sleep thinking of if I had booked the tickets for the Manchester concert instead. My heart goes out to all the parents and family that sadly lost their lives or were injured in the explosion.

...0540, just got up to this. The Sky banner indicating it could be a suicide bomber. Close to home, nowhere is safe these days.
