Aqua-Soft ForumsLondon has this morning been rocked by a series of blasts on its transport network, killing many people, and injuring hundreds. Information so far points to this being a terrorist attack on Englands capital. Tony Blair, Prime Minister, has vowed that terrorists will not break our way of life or our values.
The blasts timing clearly coincides with the opening of the G8 summit, with the 8 most powerful figures in world politics meeting to discuss world debt, poverty, and other significant matters. However, the events of this morning look set to turn this into a terrorism summit. A statement from the members and representatives of the G8 said "We condemn the barbaric acts of these terrorists"
After the euphoria in central London yesterday as England was announced as the holders of the 2012 Olympic Games, the scenes from this morning are sobering indeed.
On a more personal note, I have a number of close friends and family in London, although I am lucky enough to live in Englands second city, Birmingham. The worry that all who share my situation must be going through is huge. My heart goes out to all of you. I can only hope that all this is over, and not the beginning of something bigger, as has been indicated by a number of posts on the internet from certain terrorist groups.
Just thought that those of you not in the UK, and not watching TV might need to know about all this...
