Terrorists attack in London news?
 
Hope all down in London right now are safe.

Looks like 6 bobms went off throughout the underground and they have confirmed that it was a terrorist attack. Can anyone else confirm this Im about to go board a train to Kings Cross and am a bit concerned :(

Terrorists suck my toe jam.

Yep pretty bad and it wasn't just the Underground, it was also other locations around London. My condolences go out to those killed and to the familes and loved ones as well..:(

I think your train is likely to have been cancelled Geek.

Yeah and there are requests that people don't travel accross London. As far as I know public transport has been stopped in London.

Trying to find info on the news, what exactly is going on? (cloud over my house and my sat feed is down :( ).

All public transport has been suspended, and people are being advised not to enter London until it's absolutely necessary.

Couple of links for you, Brad

I just saw a report on it on TV, they're saying so far 10 people have been killed.

This is terrible. =/

Yea :( I woke up this morning and saw chats all over that place. Hope everyone over there is safe right now. (Found out specifically through Danny in #vBorg)

I lived in London until November of last year, and I'm currently talking on msn to a couple of friends who are still there - everyone has been knocked sick by this.

England has spent many years dealing with terrorism when the IRA were still on their reign of terror, but at least (and this doesn't make what they did right by any means) when they intended on blowing things up, they would issue a warning of a bomb beforehand AND admit responsibility after it.

One of the worst things about this is not knowing for sure why it's happened or who has done it. We can theorise and assume it's AQ or its numerous variations to our heart's content, but until someone actually comes out and admits responsibility..... well, I'm sure you know what I mean.

I personally don't think this is the whole of it - I even wonder if it's a diversion to take our attention away from something bigger.
