Yep,and as witnessed by all those measures are not enough any more

Yes,I saw you making your points,based on neither knowledge nor experience.

They are based on knowledge, research and previous examples. You haven't made any counter points, so I'm not going to bother wasting my time with someone who clearly isn't able to have a discussion.

HEADS UP!!!

Just heard from a security bank guard, the person who carries all the money that banks in WESTWOOD CROSS have been put on high alert for tonight.

I believe this is margate

Can they not bring in some sort of emergency law to say that people can not work around with their face coved?

There's already a law against burning buildings down, theft, looting and attacking the police, I doubt they'd take much notice if this law.

Omg, some people are so over panicking, they have shut work early in Southampton for god sake.

Am I the only one thinking that perhaps this 'show of force' is too little too late?

If this is what it looks like, I'm proud of Amazon. They've knocked £3.85 off the favourite 'cos they know the poor darlings are deprived. Ah bless...

I work in Canary Wharf and friends who also working there (Credit Suisse) have been told to leave.

Bin Laden couldn't get to the Wharf.

Not if it stops them dead tonight. If it doesn't, I'm very worried about how this could progress.
