U.K. Threat level raised to critical

a reply to: JimTSpock

I dont think we will stay at Critical for long, its only been in effect for 8 days in the last decade so I would be very surprised if this lasts longer than a week or so.

that a-hole wasn't working alone and they've found evidence of a cell.

which is stupid because if there is a cell, they would have attacked simultaneously to sow as much panic and confusion as possible, as well as spreading emergency services as thin as possible, instead of firing off warning shots to put national security on alert. you dont give the government a chance to prepare. there was no coordination or organization or even any real strategy to the attack. the dude was an amateur, maybe the weakest of the pack. with any luck his buddies figured out why its a bad idea to follow his example.

Possibly.

I was thinking the same kind of thing but then was thinking about what's happened in Paris with multiple attacks at different times. Perhaps the plan was to have multiple attacks and bombings over a period of time.

Just a thought.
