    Default Another major (presumably terrorist) incident. Now in Manchester.

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    BBC news saying it was a concert attacked in Manchester, families and kids

    Confirmation of numerous dead, many seriously injured. Reports of injuries consistent with a blast of some sort. Police are not confirming it was a terror attack, but what can explode in a concert venue entrance hall. Police dealing with car abandoned at cross roads in Manchester.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    No doubt be one of those radicalised British Caucasians the Police keep saying we need to be wary of, yeah right.

    Cowardly C****S, hung drawn and quartered would be too good for them.

    My emotions this morning are with those who will now suffer for the remainder of their lives. Physical scars leading to serious mental scars. I deeply feel for them

    Death toll at 22 now, 59 injured.

    Confirmed now, a sucide bomber.

    Pray for the victims, their families. Hold the emergency workers, police, paramedics, first responders, Drs, nurses in your thoughts too, the horror they have had to see.

    My first thoughts this morning were of compassion for those involved. My second was that whether by design or coincidence May has now won the election.

    There are coincidences and there are coincidences. Two days before this all over the media Corben refuses to contemn terrorism (IRA). Now this. Just who radicalises these people?

    People are considered collateral damage, the same as a bridge or road - that's the ugly truth whether we like it or not. We only have value within our own circle - outside of it we are in fact of very little value - less than an oil refinery - or the outcome of an election.

    My thoughts are with those who suffered - but I'm not blinkered by grief or outrage.

    'Strong Stable Leadership' - now it means so much more. The UK is fucked.
