Some images from Oval station today.

The station was evecuated and the area subject to an ever expanding cordon when I arrived. It was calm. It was obvious than other than a few cases of panic/stress there were no injuries as the Ambulances and Fire engines slowly left one by one. A chopper circled overhead for a few hours but has now gone too. The surrounding roads have now reopened though the station is closed and surrounded by cops with machine guns. Lots of activity inside. Read more >>

video - Bethnal Green bus 'bomber'

'Nothing to see'
shot 21/7 around Hackney Road, Bethnal Green, East London

Shows some kind of offical - probably police forensics or scene of crimes investigator in decontamination suit, plastic boot covers and latex gloves - entering the number 26 bus some time after explosives specialists have checked the device.

Quicktime movie , approx 1 min long
(One modem friendly version and one slightly better quality) Read more >>

Blair still in denial over the London attacks!

Post 7/7, the need to understand what caused four British men to blow themselves up is crucial if we are to mount an effective defense strategy. Honest relection by all is urgently required. Read more >>

Parliament cleaners go on strike.

When you consider how badly Parliament has shafted the rest of us it’s hardly surprising that they treat their own cleaners like dirt as well. The T&G Trade union today organised a 1 day strike and protest over the conditions experienced by the agency staff who clean Tony Blair’s toilet. Read more >>

We Go About Our Business

The London and Iraq bombings, that took place recently are as a Londoner making me very concerned. What with all the inuendo and blame flying around. The prime minister B.Liar seems to me to be distancing himself from all the events to take the focus off the War In Iraq ! Peace. Kev. Read more >>

NF tossers hold shit demo.

On Saturday the roving Burberry convention that is the National Front tried (unsurprisingly) to drum up some cheap publicity for themselves at the expense of the London bombing victims.
