shooting outside parliament

[Itisnoteasybeingdifferent]

Breaking on the Huff and Beeb

[Abraiid2]

Stabbed not shot, I meant to say.

[FrenchLavender]

Apparently it was the same man, Asian appearance in his 40's. Drove along the pavement mowing down pedestrians, around 8 or 10, then crashed his car into the railings of the Place of Westminster, he then stabbed a police officer and was shot but not killed by the police.

[AprilTheGiraffe]

Awful. I Hope everyone is ok.

Also, feeling rather depressed at how unshocking these incidents are these days....

[WayfaringStranger]

BBC news just said it is not known what happened to the driver of the car.

[TheGaleanthropist]

That wasn't my experience attending an event at the House of Lords Cordelia.

Grow up. Reported

[ladyballs]

A set up, you say?

[Backingvocals]

good grief Cordelia. Hardly. Or is that a joke?

Do you really think we are in the hands of sociopaths? They may be misguided, foolish, wrong, but having worked in government I can tell you, they are not demonic manipulators.

[Euripidesralph]

It's not fake exdh is in a building around the corner

Think please before you make claims like that ...there are people with loved ones in that area ....

[Backingvocals]

Nothing more tedious than a conspiracy theorist.

[FrenchLavender]

cordelia are you suggesting what I think you are suggesting?

[PurpleMinionMummy]

It doesn't say anyone was shot inside westminster on my bbc page and only 5 were run down

[elevenswan]

cordeliajackson what a load of shite, I sincerely hope no one involved sees your bollocks on here

[FlappinSwazy]

Not a fake, they've sent armed police with shields inside parliament now.

Seriously hope that there is not another assailant in there. The man from the car supposedly ran off.

The medical crews on the scene are so, so brave.

[FlappinSwazy]

Purple The man who stabbed the policeman was shot by armed police - he's injured not dead. That's how I understand it anyway.

[MorrisZapp]

Cordelia are you spectacularly thick as well as insensitive? Nobody has entered Westminster. The events occurred outside.

[PigletWasPoohsFriend]

Cordelia are you spectacularly thick as well as insensitive?

It would appear so.

[JustHavinABreak]

@Bellrophon Why respond in Arabic? Seems like an odd reaction.

[FrenchLavender]

Jesus.

[SparklyLeprechaun]

cordelia spouting conspiracy theories at a moment like this is grossly insensitive. Grow up

[PortiaCastis]

Cordelia Don't type bollocks

[JustAnotherYellowBelly]

Because, to some, Arabic is what we immediately respond with.

I hope they get to the bottom of it and quickly

[Terfinator]

I'm so glad nobody was fatally injured. Let's hope they recover quickly.

[expatinscotland]

Really not the time to throw out conspiracy theories, cordelia. Shame on you!
