Oh here we go again - IRA coded bomb threat for Central London

Is this because of the Queen's visit. There was some twunt on the news banging on how disgraceful that she was turning up on a particular anniversary. He seemed the type to look take umbrage at cheery hello.

Coded warning? Haven't the terrorists moved past this already?

Flying passenger planes into tall buildings is real terrorism these days.

I reckon it's someone trying to give the IRA a bad name.

Via contacts in London, there was a controlled explosion nr Trafalgar Square early this morning and the Met are on high alert, advising people to avoid the centre of town if possible.

The only solution is to carpet bomb all of Northern Ireland and selected key infrastructure in Southern Ireland - just in case.

This is what happens when the economy goes south - people start decanting petrol into milk bottles.
