All the still photos would indicate that there are plenty of onlookers. Last edited by granny; 7th Oct 2017 3:06pm. Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.

However, BBC had that script run along the bottom of their page just before I posted it, but have not repeated it since. So either the BBC are making mountains or someone in the tea- break room , got the wrong info. Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.

Overreacting like this is probably greeted with delight by the terrorists. They were probably at home watching telly whilst the police locked up huge areas of South Ken for them.

Its more difficult to establish whether its an RTA or a terrorist attack gone wrong (as they often do)? In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
