Actually the police and media have been referring to it as a "suspected terror attack" since it happened. Only on TiBB are we not allowed to refer to it that way.

Well it was only half an hour ago that the BBC said it was being treated as a terror attack but I guess if you say so Livia...

I heard the words "suspected terror attack" when my alarm clock woke me this morning, but I guess if you say so, Smithy...

there is a video of it actually happening on the bbc news site. I'm not going to post it here for obvious reasons, but it is obviously deliberate, and police were there at the time and on the guy in literally seconds

Don't shoot the messenger.

Something smells fishy about this.

Surely a planned attack would have taken the barriers into consideration?

[Livia]

I hope that he was trying to crush pedestrians and just wasn't very good at it.

Or perhaps there's something dodgy in the car...?

All conjecture of course, until more news is released.

Has anybody tried to pin it on Boris yet?

No he wanted to run over Police
A Local Criminal from up North
turned Terrorist

Evil twat! Glad he botched it. Let him rot.

Just watched the video and it seems weird
It doesn’t look like an accident but also doesn’t look like he was aiming for pedestrians?

Probably had his eyes shut praying to the big imaginary bloke in the sky.

Yes
Let him rot

I agree

When I read about it it sent a shiver down my spine and took me back to the night of the 3rd of June.

Not surprised that it's a terror attack. Won't be surprised when the motives will be revealed. Another symptom of the British tiptoeing around the obvious problem.

The current threat level for international terrorism in the UK is SEVERE.

The final level is Critical
it is not there yet


Last CRITICAL was
15 September 2017


[What the threat levels mean:
Threat levels are designed to give a broad indication of the likelihood of a terrorist attack.
LOW means an attack is unlikely.
MODERATE means an attack is possible, but not likely
SUBSTANTIAL means an attack is a strong possibility
SEVERE means an attack is highly likely
CRITICAL means an attack is expected imminently]

I think that he is just a very, very, nice man who was in a hurry to get to his Charity Work job.
