Sketchy details but reports of hit and runs, stabbings and shots in the London Bridge area. I fear it's only going to escalate and eventually seem like the norm.

But Corbyn says its justified. It has been well over-time for action from our politicians, no more hashtags, no more pandering to PC talking points, strict immigration laws, search the Jihad Mosques that have had a hand in legitimating non-legitimate terrorist attacks. This is common sense.
-- I wasn't linking Corybn to the attacks, however, would you trust someone in defence whom attempted to define the causation of these attacks without any afterthought?

While there is no deterrent, this'll keep happening.

I was 500m from the bridge at my mates flat, extremely scary. Finally made it home which is about a mile away but I'm not gonna lie I was bricking it walking back.

What sort of deterrent do you think would make a difference seeing that the people who commit these atrocities are usually suicide bombers or willing to die for their twisted cause?

To try to link Corbyn to these attacks is disgraceful, the truth is if we want to get involved in illegal wars and bombing campaigns there are always going to be consequences. We are at war with these countries and unfortunately that means we have to expect to be attacked as well as attacking others, we need to look at the policies of Blair and Cameron and May calling for wars allover the place backed by a Arms industry and Tory press with it's own agenda.

Deterrent? Should we threaten to bomb their countries if it happens again? Like that really worked out well. We have a deterrent, a nuclear one which we are going to spend £100 billion plus to update, at the same time there is not enough money so the Tories have cut, border funding, 25000 from the armed forces and 20000 police despite them warning that this would !make attacks like this much more likely if we did. Along with the Americans we have created areas of massive power vacuums and complete chaos a breeding ground for Jihadis and we are quite happy to sell as many arms ad we can to the Saudis who are the main sponsors of these groups, we need a whole rethink on our policy in the middle east and also on allowing faith schools of any kind in this country

We have guests who were giving a concert in Bloomsbury and were planning to drive along the embankment and over London Bridge at exactly this time, but for one of them feeling unwell and tired(pregnant) we would have been there nearly to the minute, we heard about the attack as we were driving , it really does bring it home how easily it can be you or friends and family. It is hard to see how these attacks can be stopped without intelligence, nearly everyone can get access to vehicles and knives and the fact that the terrorists are quite happy to die and have no value for life is very disturbing

No Corbyn hasn't said it's justified. All of the attacks have been committed by people born in this country - so nothing to do with immigration either.
