So so sad.

Please also lay off your political point scoring for one day as well.

I think if we had airport like security everywhere we would definitely cause huge delays and in effect limit the size of people who attend events. The Joshua fight recently had over eighty thousand people at it. I'm not sure that could happen.

I think it would be another encroachment on having to change our way of life. I think that the level of security we have is probably about right...A person carrying carrying a large rucksack or bag should always be checked....We need to follow the technology though obviously.

I agree anyone talking about banning religions or shutting the boarders is living in fantasy land. But I understand the anger and they have a right to feel it.

Mainstream Islam does need reform. Islamic reformers have been saying this for a long time. They are regularly attacked for it. Attacks like this are from an extremist section from within that religion and we need to be more determined than ever in tacking them.

This problem isn't reducing unless we actually tackle it. Followers of Islam double as a percentage of our population roughly every ten years. So inaction or just carrying on as before just means the attack frequency will increase.

I do worry for the secular state in this country. Not in my time but for my kids or maybe theirs.

He literally won't let up . Just had a couple of women on there talking about how upsetting it is and they won't be stopped from going about their lives by this and he's railroading straight over the top s*** stirring. Asking how they can feel safe, how they can let their kids out. Keeps saying we should all feel angry. This woman is saying how isn't the time for anger and he's telling her she's wrong and it is. Horrible odious man.

Totally understand anger but he's a reporter on a national tv channel and needs to get on with reporting and leave his personal thoughts and feelings in the dressing room.

Think of how many concerts there are every day all over the world, how many trains , buses , tubes run. This is incredibly rare and shouldn't stop people going out today and going about their business.

Some of the theme parks and stadia in the U.S.have already gone down this route. All have bag searches & random personal searches going on but some have now installed the metal detectors etc you find at airports. The secret is to have plenty & to have them far enough from the actual main entrance that you can manage the flow of people and any situation is contained away from the main gathering. Yes it slows the process up but not by much & because you know it's there you don't rock up at the last minute & expect to walk straight in.

Personally, I don't want to go down that road but it is certainly doable with the right level of investment & manpower.

Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five!

At least that sounds positive on such a depressing day.

No, I think that occurred to mark a significant date in the Islamic F**kwad calander.
