Summary of what is going on please??? Anyone?

some windows blown out on the bus in hackney

Hi Hula.

Reports of incidents in London. Possible explosion on tube and on a bus. Only 1 reported casualty so far. Tube network closed down. Tony about to make an announcement. London Met sending out email alerts to London offices advising people to stay put and do not use public transport.

summary - 4 incidents in central london (explosions or attempted explosions) on tube and buses. One reported injury at Warren St. Man seen running from Warren St into UCH with wires coming out of his top.

Summary for hula

3 detonations on the tube at warren st, oval and shep bush
1 on a bus

1 person injured at warren st, some reports say is is the suspect bomber - the suspect has entered (we think) uch and is being tracked by armed police

another man has been arrested on whitehall

Tube train had bloke on it with exploding rucksack. No injuries, but bloke 'looked dismayed'

just said on sky news that they have had warnings all day long!!!

Thank you!!!!

mini-bombs (like nail bombs but only the detonators went off) at warren street tube, oval tube and shepard's bush tube and on a no 26 bus in Hackney/bethnal green area.
So far only 1 injury reported (warren street)
UCH sealed off with armed police presence, looking for a suspect with wires in his shirt.
Another suspect arrested near Downing street.

All tubes stopped, and people in central london are requested to stay where they are.

All tubes stopped?

Thanks for the summaries.

Nightmare

Tony ......Blair .....on...now
Not v informative though. Lets continue as if nothing has happened etc.

I said he has nothing to contribute.

Opportunist spin if you ask me.

God he's a twat. Bet he looks dead concerned as well. When did he last get a tube/bus? (says olive who never does but ykwim)

Sorry, I know it's in bad taste, but can't help sniggering at guy who 'looked dismayed' after his rucksack exploded. Couldn't they have used another word other than dismayed?

Have to admit my sister and I have been sniggering about that too

I know northerner, Easy and I have been chuckling about it too

Maybe his favourite book was in the rucksack? Come on then, cheer me up.

I just hope they catch one of them and bring them to whatever justice they deserve
I would also express my admiration for the police dealing with these tw@ts - not something I would have though of saying too much in the past.

it was probably harry potter

I've been sniggering loads at that. Damn.. I think I maybe can't get out of going to work. Due there at 5pm. Grrr! Was hoping to wriggle out of it.

Say you're too dismayed to come in.

Hmmm very funny. Sorry, am I the only one who has someone affected by this? Do I actually exist on this board or do you only notice me when I upset you all?

Sorry, I'm a bit shaken and upset. I don't mean to offend anyone.

WHY DID THESE BOMBS NOT GO OFF - WAS IT ON PURPOSE? Why are the police going into tube stations in chemical suits? Were this lot planning to spread something nasty IYSWIM??

God I hope not

HD, I'm so sorry if I've offended you
