Its quite scary that they just do it without a care in the world about the effects it may have on others. Lucky that not as many were injured as it could of been. I hope all involved get the treatment they need and make a recovery. We live in scary times.

Been confirmed a lady has passed away :(

It was only really a matter of time :(

Saw this breaking lastnight before I went to bed.

RIP to the three members of the public and one police officer that were killed.

It will interesting to see what authorities find on guy who did it. It's unfortunate that something like this has happened in Central London as the anti-terrorism policies in the UK have been pretty effective to date. Whenever attacks like this happen, the media coverage it receives (although necessary to communicate to the rest of the world), is often just chaos and in many ways I feel is doing more harm than good.

Scary stuff considering I was standing on that bridge three months ago.

RIP. This makes me angry, i expect more will come sadly :-L
