It all seems a bit too neat, y'know?
Tuesday: Paris loses the olympic bid, London win. Paris are understandably angry. Prime Minister is in Scotland.
Wednesday: London transport network struck with explosions. Entire city is in disarray.

Leaving all things aside, I need to say this is shocking, just shocking. Also, I and my family feel eerily de-sensitised to the idea of a terrorist-like act. Harro5 July 7, 2005 09:59 (UTC)

Fox news reported at 3AM here (GMT-8) that 90 casualties have been reported. - Serialized

  • Good job to everybody who worked on this article and... I'll let rumours slide ;) --Merovingian (t) (c) July 7, 2005 10:05 (UTC)

Metropolitan Line

It seems that the blasts happened inside the tunnels of the Metropolitan Line (between the stations of Liverpool Street and Aldgate East). This would create a fireball that would spread through stations. --Pinnecco 7 July 2005 10:04 (UTC)

Emergenct Number??

Anyone finds one, please add it. Rich Farmbrough 7 July 2005 10:04 (UTC)

9-9-9 --Merovingian (t) (c) July 7, 2005 10:07 (UTC)

Stock Exchange

The London Stock Exchange in London have not been evacuated (at least, so far). I work there and all my colleagues are there. --Pinnecco 7 July 2005 10:06 (UTC)

Good Sources

BBC Radio 4, Radio 5 live and BBC News 24 are giving almost continuous coverage. --KharBevNor 7 July 2005 10:10 (UTC)

Oh fuck

Sorry. Just had to say that. -- Kizor 7 July 2005 10:12 (UTC)

I second that, and it's 2:13 AM here. --Merovingian (t) (c) July 7, 2005 10:13 (UTC)

  • I suspect the intent is to draw parallels with the Madrid attack, rather than a direct report - another version of the mention was overwritten in the editing scrum. -- Michael Warren | Talk July 7, 2005 10:17 (UTC)
