Van strikes crowd near mosque in London; one person is arrested

right wing nutjobs are using recent terror attacks to fuel their own desire to attack non-whites

Seems to be an ideological divide in that the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is comparing these right wingers to jihadists!! seems to be more vocal on the former than the latter (just my observation)

Finsbury Park attack: Man dies as van hits worshippers

News just in one dead and ten injured

The driver left the van and shouted "death to muslims" and asked police to kill him? He's been taken in for questioning

A few opportunists on both sides trying to take advantage. Right wing nutjob Tommy Robinson from the EDL is claiming that the behavior of worshippers at the mosque in public prayers incited the incident

Meanwhile an islamic nutjob - Muslim Welfare House CEO Toufik Kacimi issued a statement giving particular thanks to Imam Mohamed Mahmoud “whose bravery and courage helped calm the immediate situation after the incident and prevented further injuries and potential loss of life.” Not sure why he would say that given the police at the scene did all the work in apprehending the individual and calming the situation down?

I have read that it took police a while to get there and those in the mosque jumped on this guy and held him down while they waited and helped the injured.

Why do you refer to Kacimi as a nutjob? The reports I read say that ordinary people detained the driver and the Imam stopped them from beating him up.

So... not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims... This, and other incidents, disprove that.

We would do well to regain a little moral authority. Our real numbers of civilians killed by drone strikes don't give us any. I know this action doesn't represent all white nationalists, even just in London, or even all the people who feel like getting some revenge somehow.

The mosque was famous for having a terrorist recruiter as an Imam; think Muslim Nigel Farage's most racist advisor. Since he went to jail, the board of trustees changed and the mosque represents the people of the community. The Imam stopped the parishioners from beating their attacker. I respect that.

Sorry re-read the story and infact he did indeed keep the perpetrator safe from mob violence in the mosque, that certainly would not have been good for the London muslim community if the driver was beaten to death

I assume this is the terrorist attack someone was posting about on Facebook?

Man I am so afraid of going to London now and my city has just started doing no stop trips there. I can't afford to go there anyway. That would take at least a couple years of savings with tax return and that is without if we don't spend it on any emergencies or house repairs or car repairs.

I am in London a fair bit and it is great! Nothing to be worried about, even with recent terrorist incidents it is still miles safer than many other cities around the world.

That is the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a long time.

Stop being such a terrified timmy, London is an amazing place! You dispute that other cities around the world are more dangerous?

No, other cities around the world have higher pollution levels and are in danger of self destructing their own religion to endorse terrorist fear in other countries. The Finsbury Mosque incident was no accident you know. Its some minor free thinking radicals that have shown us the true meaning of poverty and destructive critiscism outside these places. Our own people deserve more than a free tirade on system fractures that have mirrored our own self reflection and inner starvation at our lack of expressionist thoughts for so long.
If there is a delayed timed force or hunger strike then who do we bail out? The guy interrupted mass and mowed down a few muslims and now its payback time on us?! Hasn't the U.K endured more than enough already? Sorry, but even though I'm Christian, I have no clear empathy on what he's done only pity he's done it, its all in the bible. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. No one ever tells these people what they do is wrong and are full of fear and hate in the culture; there are bodies still washed up in the Thames because of what one pro radical did and we're still letting them get away with it! I won't be brainwashed in the way that rest of muticultural society has and its time we fought away this religious escapade.. that's brought death to our unwashed shores.

Replace old wiring, lamps, kettles, and the like.

In 2010, 28 deaths from low voltage electric shocks, and 244 deaths in fires resulting from malfunctioning wiring or appliances or from misused appliances.

If you live in London, and want to be safer, you can take some simple precautions, no matter your religious preference.

Also Biscuitman, you might work in London or pay a visit there every once in a while, but you don't actually live there do you? In terms of qualifying for danger, yes, there are many like the likes of the Grenfell Tower block tragedy recently, if other tower have the same unprotected non fire proof protected cladding, then how on earth is that safe for the citizens? Never mind the terrorist incidents that we're getting. If I had alot of family there, i'd be that worried I'd be ringing them day and night to check they were ok.
