Manchester Arena Terrorist Attack

Quote:The evidence discovered in the foyer of the Manchester Arena helps to explain why the security services are so convinced Abedi was part of a wider terrorist cell, as the level of expertise needed to build such a device points to an expert bomb-maker who could still be at large.

but where did he get the bomb if it turns out it was made for him? He would have struggled to get it through any airport let alone Heathrow or Manchester!!

police raided a flat in the city centre that has been rented via Airbnb. he had apparenly been away in libya until a few days ago so guessing he picked it up from this flat and then made his way to the Arena im guessing as the MEN Arena is right next to the station wouldnt be suspicious of someone carrying a large bag

So possibly it could be possible that if he wasn't there, there could have been someone there putting the device together who had the expertise?

Guessing thats why the Threat level has gone to highest. if the NY Times report above is to be believed was made by someone who knew what they were doing so guessing it was a experienced bombmaker. guessing isis might want to keep them alive no such thing as an experienced suicide bomber. because the shit one survives and the good one dies

A minute's silence will be held across the country this morning at 11am

There's CTV footage of the guy wearing a back pack in the Arndale Centre on days running up the bombing.

Wonder if he had planned to bomb the Arndale Centre before he switched targets

More arrests have been made

UKIP have accused the prime minister of being partly to blame for the Manchester atrocity.

In charged scenes at the party's manifesto launch, the party's deputy chairwoman, Suzanne Evans said Theresa May "must bear some responsibility".

She cited Mrs May's failure to curb immigration, the scrapping of stop and search powers and cuts to police numbers.

The party leader Paul Nuttall said all "mainstream politicians" were guilty of cowardice for failing to confront Islamist extremism.

There were angry scenes as reporters were shouted down as they sought to challenge Mr Nuttall. The UKIP leader denied suggestions he was seeking to "exploit Manchester."



No place in our politics for nutters like UKIP !!!!!!!
