One woman confirmed dead (Standard suggests two deaths), and at least ten serious, some catastrophic, injuries. One seriously injured woman rescued from the river. Car drove into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge then one of the at least - according to witnesses quoted on BBC - two attackers stabbed a police officer inside gates of Westminster. Terrible, but could have been far worse when you think about France and Germany's experiences with terrorists using vehicles as weapons.


Stabbed police officer confirmed to have died from his injuries according to the Guardian.

(name removed as every newspaper has just done so)

Named very quickly by Police (edit: apparently as that's been removed now too)


Edit: added source as that Wiki page keeps changing



If this wasn't the guy how did a load of newspapers report it and Channel 4 then pull it

Because they all see everyone else is saying it so just do the same thing instantly without bothering to check. Funny that.

According to some sources the guy named by C4 news, the "hate preacher" Abu Izzadeen, is actually in jail at the moment for breaching bail terms. He does bear a superficial resemblance to the pictures of the attacker, but other than that there doesn't seem to be much reasoning behind it.

His wiki page now says sent down for 2 years in jan 2016


That rumour just flew across the media then removed just as quickly.


Just shows as mentioned above - but some of the news said the police had named him too.

    • It happened again tonight. This time a group of kids ( I hate saying that, because it makes them sound less intimidating than they are), threatened to throw a water bomb at me. When I dared them, they started lobbing them. Then they started saying they were going to kill my dog and one of them jumped over the fence of the Japanese Garden and took a running kick at my dog, who got out of the way. He jumped back over the fence, then came back, came within a meter of me and threw a water bomb really hard at me.  I can't be sure it was exactly the same crowd as last time, though I suspect the male ring leader could be.  The police came and were amazing - as was the park warden - and are fairly confident of the identity of one of them and think they may have tried to arrest him before.  There were maybe as many as 15 of them, aged 16-18, all Caucasian, girls and boys (girls being just as aggressive as the boys). The ring leader is a slight man, dark hair / eyes, possibly with facial hair about 5'6", petite, wearing an all-blue tracksuit.  So please be careful when you're in the park around 6.30 / 7pm. The local SNT have been informed.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did!
    • But it was under our electoral system in 2019! This must be part of the right-wing media conspiracy that did for Corbyn....;-) Corbyn was very closely allied to Unite and Len....
