SKY news is reporting an explosion at the ends of a pop concert at Manchester Arena. Several fatalities confirmed.
Details sketchy so, far but sounds bad. 

[baggers]

Yes watching this now they say many fatalities.  possibly explosion was outside the building.

My daughter and wife were there, I got a terrified call of the wife and she was running from the scene, I told her to get into a hotel for refuge. started driving up there but got a call to say they'd got to the car . Both now back but in shock, from what I can make out they were close enough to hear the explosion, see smoke and ash floating round. I've managed to shepherd the little one to bed without her hearing there have been fatalities    I'm not looking forward to that in the morning

Never hugged them so tight, I'm in bits.

What absolute oppsing abhorrent animal targets children at a concert 

[Rods2]

Sadly 19 dead and 50 injured

So glad your family are okay omegod.

Words fail me to describe evil pigs that cause such carnage and suffering.

[STEMO]

This is awful. I have a tear in my eye just trying to imagine what those poor people must have gone through. Happy, excited teenagers butchered in a senseless act of murder.


Jon...thank god your family are safe. Stay together today and just be there for each other xxxx

[BazaJT]

Latest toll seems to be 22 dead and 50 or so injured Like all such things a senseless act of violence,I hope they find whoever was responsible.Glad to hear your family were unharmed omegod.My sincerest condolences to the families/loved ones of the victims.

[Varche]

Grim news.

Like all such things a senseless act of violence,I hope they find whoever was responsible.

According to US reports whoever was responsible is in lots of little pieces (suicide bombing), although how they can know that from across the atlantic when we don't know that (publicly, at least) is beyond me. Tasteless speculation or inside information, I wonder.

As everyone has already said, utterly abhorrent actions to target a concert mostly attended by children, but then that's precisely the MO of these animals, isn't it?

Both now back but  ....

Glad to hear it!!!!!!!

[RobG]

And this is once again why we need the borders shut right now !! and any in the country kick them out along with all their family attachments to minimise the risks.
Far to much of this political correction crap about and far to many "do gooders" about that need to wake up.

[Entwood]

Should the BBC and ITV be charged with "Aiding & Abetting" terrorism ??

The amount of free publicity they have handed out this morning is ridiculous... If we withdrew the "oxygen of publicity" then, just perhaps, the copy cats and self important idiots might not think about the next atrocity.

I'm not saying "don't report it" as it needs to be out there .. but stopping all other programmes to keep reiterating the same stuff for 6 hours is, quite frankly, pointless.

I have no words to describe how wrong, dangerous and down right f***ing stupid this view is.

[baggers]

And that's your f***ing opinion.

So your happy for these arse holes to go around killing inocent folk.  We can minimise the risk.

And that's your f***ing opinion.

So your happy for these arse holes to go around killing inocent folk.  We can minimise the risk.

And your evidence that the perpetrator wasn't born and bred in Manchester (or elsewhere the UK) is? Yet you jump to the conclusion that closing the borders will keep such people out?
