2 arrested. I can't imagine how awful this was for the victims

There have been mass stabbings in countries like Germany that have been terrorist attacks. It isn't surprising that is what people jump to.

I agree. It is pathetic the way some posters just keep arguing and squabbling with each other.

Your faux naivety doesn’t wash with me I’m afraid.

She said “majority”. Her comments are factual.

Exactly!

What is “naive” about anything I wrote?

I don’t remember any calls for the PM to go in 2005 when London was bombed. Get a fucking grip.

Incidents specifically like these are so rare, period. I was talking about the stats for violence in general.

Most people affected by violence are harmed by the everyday violent acts that go on in every other street in the UK.

Yes and if it was Germany then I would have an entirely different response (as it’s an established pattern there).

Why would your response be different?

You have no idea about who could do such a thing 🙄

In Cambridgeshire? What's that got to do with football,a team from Newcastle or East London?

Hes part of the reason everything has got so out of hand.

Hold my pint..

Rotherham
Rochdale
Telford
Derby
Peterborough

For the sake of ‘Social Cohesion’

Shame on you woman.

Exactly, PM stepping down due to terror attacks has never been a thing here at least not in recent years. Was it 2017 when that horrible London Bridge thing happened?

Who was in power then? Don’t recall the PM being asked to step down then.

My first thought was a terrorist attack too, but listening to sky news I think it unlikely. There have been eyewitness accounts of 1 suspect being arrestsd, but no one saw the second being detained. would they both not be wielding weapons if terrorism was the cause? No religious chants have been reported. Sadly, I think it may be mental health related and there was actually only one attacker; the other may have been arrested " on suspicion".

Where have you been living?
This is about more than just a stabbing on a train tonight.

I’d be looking at Farage as the reason for that, not Starmer.

I've seen online that apparently these men were rampaging through the train for 15 mins before someone pulled the emergency stop. If that's true the numbers injured must be quite high. Absolutely horrific. My heart goes out to everyone involved.

I don’t remember any calls for the PM to go in 2005 when London was bombed. Get a fucking grip.

I don't disagree but surely this counts as squabbling....

Oh yeah, political instability is just what we need, that worked so well for the last ten years.

“Immigrant background” = Briton”. Bringing in anybody of any potential immigrant background becomes meaningless as that is millions of Britons.

But how many mass stabbings like this have there even been in the UK and how many by immigrants?

Exactly. Not even a fan of starmer but blaming any of this on him especially after the shit show we had from 2010-2024 is a joke.

The only reason I mentioned the PM is because of the significance of an early statement showing the severity of the incident.

My thoughts are with those involved, I'm not interested in anyone trying to score political points.

So then even less reason to call for Starmer to go.
