30 are dead, not 300.

Anyone feeling sympathy for Abu Hamza at this time?

The published numbers are a lot less, but no doubt more will come in, early days.

Enough with that damn overused phrase Vern- try something more original. Don't be so pompous - merely voicing an opinion that is contradictory to the majority consensus doesn't make one a troll. Possibly a flamer, but not a troll...get the facts right, old bean.

London will get through it - they are like New York...strong willed, determined, with iron opinions, thick skins, solid views, honest, frank, blunt, no BS and not scared of the truth.

Learn something from them, Expats.

Never felt sympathy for Hamza, but sometimes its better to have people where you can see them.

Id prefer him publicly spouting his vitriole in a street in London sorrounded by 10's of people than the Middle East surrounded by thousands or sat in some jail being made into a God.

Sure thing...I'm sure it will be refreshing to have a candid non-sugar coated conversation!! Let's make it sometime in August.

I have, from the wire, 33 dead but that doesn't include the bus, and 350 injured, 45 seriously.

I'm up for it if you are -- I'm more than happy to back up my no-BS blunt attitude in person. I'm proud of that feature - glad I don't fall in line with the soft PC crowd that has plagued modern society.

There's a forum for controlversial views, it's called 'Take it outside'. There are plenty who will argue with you there.

BBC now saying 33 dead and 300+ injured, just makes me feel sick to my stomach.

Slightly unfair to bush, because packing him away in a safe heaven is standard precedure over here...would have happened to anyone that was president...unfortunately...
