Any news sources picked it up yet?

A brief mention on LBC. Unless it’s serious we won’t hear any more apart from the travel disruption news. These things happen quite frequently. The news here tonight is the fire-fighters vote to strike.

Also the anti-terror squad were getting anxious about job cuts. Now they have a bundle of offical documents with the words SACK ME IF YOU DARE" stamped on the front.
