Reports of people trapped on the tube, mobile phone network possibly down because the police fear that like madrid the terrorists are using phones to detonate. At least 6 explosions and multiple deaths confirmed.

There has been nothing about bombs at Swindon or Brighton Stations - just alerts that have led to evacuations.

They are talking about 'massive casualties' on the BBC- 90 from Aldgate alone according to a doctor on the scene, not walking wounded either.
Gridlock in London, knock on effects across the country. This is a disaster.

If I was you I'd get my hotel room booked now. There is going to be no way out of London today. Traffic gridlocked, buses suspended, tube down.
People trapped in Euston station as well.

Arab sources confirming that it was Al qaeda.
