Exclamation Bomber did die on Bus

Apparently...

http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0...385127,00.html

So it looks as though it was a suicide bomder after all.

you cant draw that conclusion yet, plenty of bombs have gone off during transit to their intended target.

True. I agree it's not 100% conclusive.

Nice to see that BNP is using the bomb blast to stir up hatred among religious communities and have a go at labour.

I may be a little cynical but is it not a matter of the police saying "**** ! there is no way we will catch the bombers ! I know.........."

What's wrong with having a go at labour? What the BNP have said today (on Sky News I think) is the truth.

Stir up religious hatred? Wouldn't that include invading other countries, allowing mass illegal immigration, pandering to minority group needs and other labour policies?

When this happened last time Tony Blair spoke about 'banning far right parties'; rather than addressing voters concerns. No doubt the same will happen this time. -this is a comment on politics & democracy as opposed to religion/immigration; however, I do feel that peoples concerns should be addressed rather then their unwise political allegiances outlawed-

The Leeds address was linked directly to the bomber who blew himself up on the Tavistock Sq bus.

i know. I was refering to that in reply to you questioning that the police may use it as an easy way out. Raiding 6 houses in Leeds does not look like the easy way out to me.

The BNP have simply latched onto a point of view widely held by people in this country. Namely that it is New Labour's policies and actions/inactions that are the direct cause of the situation we are in now.

IIRC that was the security services preferred way of saving the expense of bringing IRA/UDF members to trial

They won't hold a "Should we adopt US Foreign Policy for the UK's" referendum (although plenty in his own Government walked out over the fact we did).

But not a majority .

Having said that - The UK is so far up America's ar$e I couldn't see any of the others (politicians) doing anything differently.

Politicians in the UK are further away from the people they're supposed to be serving than ever before - Which is why groups like the BNP will increase in popularity .

The only problem is that BNP are a bunch of wan**rs, even though some of their policies are good and are they are pro-British.

Foe example in Australia and NZ it is possible to have pride in your country, to fly the flag, to put labels on goods proclaiming "Buy Australian Made" etc without being called racist. They also have almost zero imigration for non-skilled immigrants. These are realistic and good policies but they have been hijacked by the far-right in the UK. There are no decent middle ground parties.

I said the direct cause of the situation not that they actually detonated the bombs. Although that is another possible scenario.

True, conclusions cannot be jumped upon just yet...A possible scienario is that the bombers could have been told to go to "so and so" location via "this train or bus" Bomb is set to go off at "this time", plant the bomb at a certain location. Once planted come back to see me and I'll give you £100,000, a British passport and a 12yr old sex slave.

But in reality the bombs were syncronised and set to go off much earlier - thus neagting the need for payment and easily allow for some gullible fool to carry it not knowing they were going to get blown to bits.
